COMMUNITY MARKET TOMORROW - SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21ST!

     1)  Hecho con las Manos will be at the first market this Saturday, with fresh cranberry/orange relish. Come on out and say hi to everyone.

     2)  Please join us at our 1st Los Barriles Community Market for the season this Saturday and support our local Turtle Protection Program. There will be turtle themed T-Shirts available to purchase and the proceeds will help to preserve Baja's endangered Sea Turtles.

ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have name and/or email address.

a.  Courtesy of the Ventana View:  FYI, we flew into SJD about a month ago, three people with a total of 8 kites. The customs officer told us we were only allowed to bring in 2 kites per person and had to import the other two. We argued that we had never had this happen before and that the custom forms actually states the you are allowed, " three surfboards with or without sails". We explained that our kites were the same as sails and the officer said the kites are different than sails. After a 1/2 hour hassle he eventually let us through without charging us duty.
Yesterday my brother flew into SJD and experienced the same hassle, they wanted $500 dollars or 17% duty from him to import his 3rd kite, he eventually paid $1000 pesos. I'm not sure who to report this to, but it feels wrong and I thought it was worth writing about.
Interested to hear if anyone else has had a similar experience or has any knowledge of the rules. Northshoreskier@gmail.com

b.  Telephone Discussion:  I just changed my vive Mexico plan to the new mobile share plan including talk and data in and out of Mexico. It took a little work because it is very knew but was able to put 3 phones on with 2 gigs shared for a great savings. It includes unlimited talk and text. Just make sure they include the Att international roaming plus for Mexico there is no charge for this and needs to be put on all your phones. Also if you don't sign for the 15 gig plan you may have to talk to them a bit to get less gigs because that supposedly what you need to buy to get the deal.
