We never discussed how many consecutive days it could be taken (3 days? 10? 100?). I took about 25 doses of Viagra over a 30 day trip to Thailand without known adverse side effect.[/QUOTE]I keep telling myself I would give up mongering if I got to that point but then again I am only 48 and 420 works as my Viagra.

[QUOTE](I know 5mg Cialis can be taken daily but what about the 20mg doses?) [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=HorseTrader;2180390]My doctor told me to take the 20 MG Cialis no more than once every 2 days. Same doctor said 100 MG Viagra could be taken each day.

What I meant was how many 20 MG tabs for a 90 day supply. Apologies.
IIRC taking 5 MG Cialis daily gives you around 25 MG Cialis steady state after about 10 days.
I'm going over in a couple of weeks. I think I'll try bringing back 30 x 100 MG Maxifort unopened / sealed. I don't think that's an unrealistic quantity. I'll be driving over the border, but Uber / taxi around Tijuana, if that makes any difference.
Last time I went to Hong Kong not long ago, I was with a buddy and it was on a Saturday afternoon.
We left and headed back to the border around 7 pm and the taxi dropped us off about a quarter mile or so from the border, next to a road that goes underneath an overpass. There was no one along that street except for a beggar. I thought it looked a bit hairy for someone by themselves to walk back.
Any solo guys walked alone back to the border at early evening or later at night?
Sounds like Ped East. I've walked that route numerous times without incident, day and night. I'm not advising it is entirely safe. But that is a common drop off point for taxis. I typically see an older lady under that bridge, selling candy.
I've never had or seen anything frightening in that area. The part of the walk that is more concerning is about a half mile south of there.

A gringo was living with his Mexican wife and 3 children in an apartment in an upscale area in Zona Rio. The area is predominated by huge mansions with large green yards, owned by big local men. He was proud of the area and thought his family was safe. He kept 3 large pit bulls in the yard for security.
One Saturday 6 months after moving in, he took the family out to lunch. He came back after 2-hour lunch finding the dogs' bloody heads without their carcasses in the yard and his apartment completely empty. Someone killed the dogs and moved the entire content of his apartment, including old stoves, washer / dryer, a couple closets full of clothes, furniture, toys etc. Some guys were having dog tacos that night.
Looked like criminals were watching his family the whole time waiting to strike, and anything of any value could be stolen even in daylight. The crime was never investigated or solved. He was so afraid that he quickly moved back to the US.
OTOH, a bro has been living in Zona Norte for about 5 years, parking his car on the street. He never got anything stolen or ever felt unsafe. He's having the greatest time of his life with dozens bar girls crashing in his place over the year, cooking and cleaning, giving him free sex all night. Most girls were very hot. Life is good!

I wasn't used to that drop off point, the previous drop off point was located at where you actually now enter into Tijuana.

I am one block from the beach. I don't know where Capt. Comes up with this bullshit? I just had say something because noobies BELIEVE what Solo says is true. Mexico in my opinion for a gringo is as safe. Or safer than SD.
I hope Golf will last a few more months before having everything stolen.
A couple guys were planning to share a crash pad in Zona Norte. They had to assume everything would be stolen in the first few months.
With all the murders in Tijuana one never really knows what happening there. Even the locals are mugged in Tijuana at times. Personally a gated community is the only place I would consider living in Tijuana.

Mexico is indeed can be as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make. There are probably close a 1 million of American retirees living in Mexico. They all live in safe communities. Stuff can happen of course, but it's no worse in Mexico than SD, Florida, or Texas.
Number of Americans murdered in Mexico is higher than all other countries combined:

I know the 2 people who live in Tijuana personally. All info are factual.
Take your own risks in Mexico. Report any successes or failures to inform the other bros.
Everyone knows there is no free lunch. Tijuana housing is cheaper than San Diego, Florida or Texas for a number of good reasons. In SD or Texas, people rarely break into houses to rob or burglarize because robbers know that locals can easily buy 12 gauge shotguns and keep them loaded and handy in the home. In California and Texas, unlike Mexico, you have the right to defend yourself in your home from criminals with a shotgun or pistol or whatever. So in Mexico, you can expect a lot more violence from robbers or burglars because they know they won't be facing the wrong end of a shotgun. In Australia, when they restricted firearms like Mexico, robberies and burglaries skyrocketed. The criminals lost their fear of breaking into houses. Captain Solo's warnings and alerts about Tijuana crime is worth considering. If you want to go or live in Tijuana, only take cheap stuff you do not mind being stolen. Old beater cars for example. Buying nice houses or land with no title insurance in Mexico is unwise, IMO, but I hear other Americans talking about doing it. "It's so cheap to buy here. . . . ".

I really love the vibe of Mexico and it is full of wonderful people, but the crime in many parts of Mexico make it a no go for me. The kidnappings in particular are scary. 70 something Americans murdered out of 31 million that visited Mexico in 2016 doesn't seem extraordinarily high, but it is still scary.
At least Tijuana for the moment doesn't have a warning by the state department:
"There are no USA Government restrictions in tourist areas in Baja California, which includes: Ensenada, Rosarito, and Tijuana."
