Mexico - 2000
In April
2000, Easter
was late and ran into Anzac Day and so the school holidays were 18 days
long.
It was a good time to go to southern California. We flew to
Sydney and then to Los Angeles and on to San Francisco.
After viewing
the sights of San Francisco and the Monterey Peninsular we went by
train and bus to Yosemite National Park.
Back to San Francisco and then
a flight to San Deigo.
Following San Diego and a short visit to Mexico
we caught the Greyhound bus to Anaheim.
After Disneyland and the Los
Angeles sights it was a 15+ hour direct flight back home to Melbourne.
Tijuana
From the Birch aquarium in San Diego we caught a taxi to the Mexican border. We walked through these gates into Mexico and caught a taxi to the Revolution district of Tijuana. There were lots of pharmacies, hospitals and dentists ... much cheaper than the USA. Also lots of leather, gold and silver shops. |
