Please help. Airlines destroyed my cushion for my wheelchair and it
poses a huge health threat. We live here in Los Barriles part time
and wondered if anyone is flying down Wednesday afternoon or
Thursday / Friday and would be willing to bring another one down for
me. I would fed-ex it overnight pay any extra baggage charges and be
eternally grateful. It is 15 x 16 x 3 and weighs 8 lbs. Reward
offered.

Ultra-low sulphur diesel fuel was not available throughout the Baja
last winter. I had heard that ULS diesel will be available Baja-wide
(Baja-long?) by this past June. Can anyone verify this, and if it is
not available everywhere, can anyone please fill me in where it can
be found, and where it cannot be found? Jim Skelton, Vernon, B.C.

My wife and I were stopped by Federales on the toll road between SJD
and the airport last week. When we were pulled over there were
already two others who had been stopped and a third after us. Each
was a gringo with American plates or a rental car. They told me that
I was driving 5 km over the speed limit and that I could either pay
$US60 on the spot or go to the station and pay $120. They wanted to
see my driver’s license (a photocopy was not good enough),
registration and insurance. They asked me to get out of the car and
walk down the street to the patrol car where they asked if I had
ever gone to court in the US for drunken driving, speeding or drugs.
They would not allow my wife to come with me and told her to stay in
the car but were very polite and gentlemanly to her. They told me
that they would check my US records on their laptop computer that
they had in the patrol car. I had some serious doubts that they were
able to do that. I simply paid the $60 and left but just wanted to
give everyone else the heads up that this was going on. Buzz Fedorka,

Here's our experience in La Paz regarding arriving with our big dog.
Although the dog arrival system has been consistent for us for many
years at the Los Cabos airport, which requires vaccine and rabies
certifications, my husband just arrived to the La Paz airport and
the requirements are definitely different. You will need to show
proof that your pet is free of fleas, ticks and worms, a document
which we did not have and is not routinely provided as a proof of
health with our veterinarians. Of course our pets are free of fleas
with the help of monthly treatments as well as the 20 degree nights
in Sun Valley, Idaho assures it! Worms are treated routinely. We had
to wait while the woman in charge summoned a vet, who when he
arrived quoted the worry of Parvo and Rocky Mountain Tick Fever,
which was the reason for the change in the document requirements.
The airport official made us administer 4 pills to our dog for
worms, they looked very much like Pepto Bismol, and only then was
she allowed out of the crate to be pottied. All to say, it is a
'FREE of Worms, Ticks, Fleas' document which you need to arrive
with, at least in La Paz. Buen suerte! Theresa Comber,
