Sorry Hashem I will have to reserve judgement until AFTER trip ends. HaHaHa!!
It is all good and almost always works out great. BTW the solar panels are now installed on the roof, just waiting on solar controller to arrive, baby steps, Solar System should be working by 1st of November at the latest. Tight lines.

Sounds fair.

I hope you won't be disappointed Bob.

Good to hear the solar project is advancing.

That means I have to come back to your place.

Everyone needs an FMM it doesn't matter anymore how long you stay you need it.

If staying less than a week you don't have to pay but you still have to get it.

Also they have been checking the FMM much more frequently through San Felipe now.

Most people pay and have it for 6 months.

Jeff you are right, last holiday weekend people were sent back from San Filipe to Mexicali to get it or to leave the country. I understand some just went home. Too bad Mexico could not just sell them in San Filipe.

Agreed wiser to pay the $22 and not need to worry later. Good call.

I was at discover baja today. The FMM is 28 dollars but they were sold out. They get them in every week though.

I would get yours asap as they sold over 100 yesterday!

Not sure why there is such a big surge now for traveling down there but they said that the Guadalupe wine valley is a big attraction now.

The way it works is that you pay in advance and then you get it stamped at the border. If going through the West entrance in Mexicali you enter and the office is on the left.

Discover Baja has a great deal on insurance for a 90 day policy.

You can use those 90 days anytime for a 365 day period.

With liability only coverage it is only 100 dollars.

Jeff, as I understand it the FMM is good for 6 months for reentry. You just need to get it stamped for the 1st crossing into Mexico. Tight lines.
