HOT NEWS ON FMM. Just back with a group. If you get the FREE fmm there might be a problem as now they inter it into the computer at the office. It needs to be returned to where you got it BEFORE it expires. It is good for 7 days and MUST be turned in to the office you got it from. If not then the next time you try and cross into Mexico to get one YOU are in their computer system and have to pay a fine of US $120.00 if you did not turn it in on time. And in Mexicali, it is a bitch to find parking to turn it in. Each person needs their passport and the Fmm to turn it in. One person CANNOT turn them in for the group.
If you buy the 180 day Fmm you just turn it in when you get your new one. And again the 180 day was $30 USD.

Wow - they are really making it difficult to be a tourist. Guess I'll plan on paying the 30 bucks next trip, then I wont have to stop on the Mag Bay trip...

I've been anxiously waiting your return - everything hold up well in Mako-Ville?

EVERYTHING survived. Solar system was great, referigerator runs good. No damage to mako-ville or the new house. Life is good. Roosters roaming the beach, marlin spotted LIFE IS GREAT. See you soon, Tight Lines amigos.

OUR personal experience from last trip. Returned YESTERDAY. Not a great big deal just extra time waiting at the border in 100+ weather.
