Hong Kong might be a bad option for the time being.

Was going to go to HK this weekend and also Wednesday evening. After doing some research on Tujuana lately, I have decided not to go due to the caravan. Here is one of the articles I read. Just a heads up to the other guys thinking about going. I would have to get stuck there in a big mess.

That's what CNN and MSNBC say.
I would be surprised if this went on too long. I’m hearing that there is a lot of anger at the caravan by citizens of Tijuana. Local politicians are likely to get rid of the “caravan” to calm things down, rather than let it continue to be a thorn in thier side.
But I think Dblednmike is correct. The city of Tijuana is going to take care of this quickly. They don't want the tourism to suffer.
Yesterday, I crossed back to the U.S. on foot through Pedeast. Again, very little wait, business as usual, and no caravan members in sight.
After running errands in San Ysidro, I crossed back into Tijuana on foot through Pedwest. No wait, business as usual, and no caravan members lingering around at the border.
Last night in my hotel room, it was business as usual with my HK chica. No caravan members in sight.
It seems like all of the caravan members are being kept away from the border and their asylum applications are being processed at the refugee camps that they've set up for them, from what I read.
However, if you feel more comfortable staying away until the dust clears, you should do what works best for you.
In the past when all the Hatians were seeking asylum, there was a long line of them near the border. The Mexican officials had their line off to the side, so it was separate from the regular people crossing the border. It didn't slow down the regular line.
I don't think the Hondurans will make their way to the pedestrian border crossing, but if they do I would guess that the Mexican border control will handle it the same way. Put them off to the side and help a few at a time, but not let them in the general crossing lines.
There is a LOT of commerce that goes across there every day. It would be the equivalent of shutting down the Federal government. I crossed when the Haitians were an issue without incident, save a few of them begging me for money as I walked toward the gates. At least the people in the caravan speak Spanish by an odd coincidence.
The elections are over. Reduced temperatures and calming winds are predicted...for a few months.

I still think the city of Tijuana will address this very quickly. Too many TJ merchants depend on US citizens coming over the spend money.

Any of you guys ever monger in Mexicali, San Luis Rio, Nogales, Aqua Prieta, or any of the other border towns?

So the body has been identified, it is the 32yo Ian Powers who vanished at the 11/12 Monday night football game.
They are saying that it was an accidental drowning, and now the case is closed.

But this is all on the off nights.
But they don't seem to have the VIP Card which the HK Cascadas has.

Guys on TJA say that as great as the HK bar is, there is way more tongue in BT and LC, and some of their people drop in there daily, just for that.

I did see two frequent tuscl mongers inside HK. HK has a nice 2 hrs lingerie costume show. The crowd was busy. Outside was cool at 63F. Paradise.

If i don’t make it back, know that I died doing what I love, what I hold precious to my heart, what I work and save for, what keeps me going through my darkest days.
And if anyone disparages me in death, tell them I said fuck you and the horse you rode in on.
God bless America. Here’s to life, liberty and the pursuit of pussy!
The folks in Tijuana are going to take care of this quickly. They have too much at stake. However, in the short term, it is alarming if you want to go to Zona Norte.
Watch these videos. Anyone who has been there will see the bridge over to Zona Norte, HK in the background, the pedestrian crossing etc. Heck no am I going with this craziness. It is a ticking time bomb and every crossing is closed right now.
Nogales,AZ’s point of entry is a breeze and you can get the TJ experience just as easily with less competition from other PLs. Park on US side and within 10-15 minutes you’ll be with a chica and drink in hand. I used to park at McD’s back in the day, but now I’m not sure what lot to hit. Plus it’s only a little over 2 hours to get there from Phx.
Do you prefer the grape or cherry?
I heard the border is open again now, but if anyone is on a tight schedule they may want to wait until things settle down. If you're not on a tight schedule and you can afford to extend your trip a day or two, as a pedestrian walking across the border it should be fine. Just my dos centavos.
