Posts: 289Why is it embarrassing to just tell the truth? Just say Hong Kong or Adelitas and they'll just laugh and let you through. If it's a woman she'll just grin or smirk, no big deal. They're not blind, they know why most of us are coming to their country. They'll only start hassling you if you give indecisive answers or act nervous. Nobody cares about your personal activities, they're just nameless people doing their job.

Posts: 6493Illegal questions.
What you do in foreign countries is none of the CBP agents' business. Foreign countries are not in CBP's jurisdiction. It's illegal for them to ask what you do there.
When asked, you tell them you were visiting friends. They would not know that you only have friends in HK hehe.
Always take down names and badge numbers of rogue CPB agents, in case you can sue them for million dollars.

Posts: 13Suggestions
Hello everyone,
In about a month, maybe 2, it looks like I am going to be able to do one or two day trips into Tijuana every other month or so. While this sounds like very little, it is actually heads and above what I am used to and I am quite excited.
My issue: I will only be able to be in Tijuana from about 11 am to about 7:00 pm or 8:00 pm that same day. The day trip itself is is not a problem, I can fully enjoy myself in that amount of time. However, I need a place where I can stash a small day bag with a change of clothes, my supplies / pesos (I do not want to carry all of my pesos in my pocket), and where I can grab a quick shower before crossing back over the border. Getting a room at Cascadas seemed ideal, but then I realized that they have a 3:00 pm check in time at the earliest, which would leave me carrying my stuff around, money and all, for four hours.
Any suggestions?
I appreciate it. It would be very nice if I could get these visits down to a science and became kind of a regular!
IB.

Posts: 1064Going in I'm never questioned due to the 180 day pass. Coming out always asked, are you bringing anything back. I always say a betting ticket from Caliente. I'm immeadiatly dismissed as a degenerate gambler and sent on my way with no further questions.
However if you forget to clean the lipstick marks off they will know what you were really up to.

Posts: 6493Rental car to the border.
To Jim129.
How much do they charge for drop off fee in San Diego?
This is a damn good idea. Most car rental companies have special weekend deals for like $20 a day, unlimited mileage. The local Enterprise office let me leave my car in their lot while I drive off all weekend. It would be much cheaper to drive a rental car to San Diego for $20 a day on weekend than driving your own cars.
If you rent cars from companies with office and parking lots in San Ysidro, you should be able to leave the car in their parking lot Friday night as it's their property. Sunday night, just pick up the car and drive back to LA and avoid drop off charges.
Would that work, knowing the expensive parking costs in S Y?

So what's up with the semi pro scene in Tijuana? Haven't heard much of anything about it on here.

Posts: 2537Over the few years I was crossing back into the US and the customs agent asked what I was doing in Mexico. I simply answered tourism. But for some strange reason they did not like the answer. They then said multiple trips to Tijuana is not tourism and let me go.

Posts: 12May trip part 1.
First trip visiting Tijuana and first time mongering outside of the US. A bit wary of the journey I made contact with a forum member that agreed to show me around. I really have to thank this forum for helping me plan the trip, I probably wouldn't have taken otherwise given the limited information I've seen other places.
Anyway, coming down from Los Angeles I was struggling to find the cheapest means of arriving in hopes to maximize my budget orientation to chicas. I eventually settled on greyhound bus service where a trip to the border for 17-23 bucks. Worried about how long a trip would take and wanting to be on time for me to get there I scheduled a bus at 8 am. Naturally said bus didn't arrive until 10:30. Not sure if that was a particularly bad incident, but judging by the uncaring callous of the employees I think not. So crammed like sardines into the not as well kept as I hoped bus I went annoyed at my late departure time. This bus service did not directly take me to the border as there is a larger LA station downtown that I was dropped off at to await the second bus that would take me there (not to worry a single ticket vouches for you until your destination). After arriving at the station tired from lack of sleep to get up so early in the first place and with hunger setting in I searched for a meal. To my dismay there was only a convenience store esque venue. Not trusting my written schedule I dared not leave in search of food in fear of missing my bus. Thanks to the great stroke of luck of following directions poorly a bus arrives around 11:20 taking another earlier group to the border. I approached the bus driver checking all the tickets and was informed it was indeed not the bus for my ticket, but the old man takes pity on me and allows me to board regardless (so thank god for that! The rest of my trip was rather uneventful other than seeing the two super carriers docked in San Diego (never been there either until now). Upon arrival I pass an entire street lined with cash exchanges eventually passing a McDonald's and arriving at the entrance to Mexico.
Standing in the non-citizen line for entering Mexico I prepared my passport card and awaited to be processed. They asked why I was going to Mexico to which I answered touring, but was responded by another more aggressive line of questioning to my surprise as they demanded to know what hotel I was planning to stay at. I told them I hadn't determined that yet despite their persistence. I don't much hear complains about this so I have to ask the veterans here is "I am here to bang girls" a viable response to get these monkies off your back?
