Choosing Your Chariot: A Cavalcade of Carriages
The trusty steed (rental car): Perfect for blasting mariachi music and belting out bad Spanish at the top of your lungs. Just remember, you're not in a Baja 1000 race, so keep it chill. Bonus points for packing a co-pilot who can navigate while you polish your tequila tasting skills (responsibly, of course).
The Uber chariot (with A/C): Beat the San Diego heat and avoid the parking pandemonium. Just be sure your exit strategy from Mexico is solidified, because that awkward "Uh, how do we get back?" look isn't a good one.
The public transport posse (tram and bus): For the eco-warriors and budget ballers. This option might take a tad longer, but hey, more time to people-watch and soak up the San Diego vibes. Word to the wise: Pack some snacks, just in case your hunger pangs turn into a full-on mariachi meltdown.
Fear not, Fellow Traveler: Conquering the CBX Like a Champion
Once you've chosen your chariot, here's the lowdown on arrival:
- Parking: Don't fret, CBX has a shiny parking lot. But if you're rocking the Uber chariot, this section can be safely ignored (unless you enjoy reading about asphalt).
- Documentation: Pack your passport and your most charming smile for customs. A little friendliness goes a long way, even if your Spanish is limited to "buenos tacos."
Pro-tip: Double-check visa requirements before your trip. Nobody enjoys being turned away at the border, especially when the promise of delicious al pastor tacos hangs in the balance.
Tip: Context builds as you keep reading.
And You're Off! ¡V�monos!
Congratulations, you've made it to the CBX! Now you're on your way to fiesta-ing (responsibly) south of the border. Just remember, Tijuana awaits with open arms (and maybe a margarita).
