When driving to the San Jose airport make sure you have all your
vehicle papers, registration, license, insurance papers as there is
a new scam out there. We were luckie, we had everything but I know
of 5 other people who have been checked there as well in the last
three weeks and of course it's $100. US on the spot if you don't
want to bother with going to the police station!!!!!!!!!!

We just paid a Fidio for a friend at HSBC in Cabo. We started at the
old
location near Cape Marine and found they had moved that branch to
Plaza
Bonita. The new branch at Plaza Bonita does not have the Fidio
Office,
that we found had been moved to the new Walmart Plaza. Good news is
that
they have lots of parking, easy access, its right between Sam's Club
and
Walmart and they added a helper for Brenda in the office so its
faster
too...The roads in Cabo are still impossible and the road project
will
probably not be done for months! Don Schenk

Where can I find the requirements for dual citizenship (US and

I used my B of A debit card at one of our local banks ATM to get
5000 pesos.
My B of A account was debited $385.21. That’s an exchange rate of
12.98.
I looked on the internet and the exchange rate that day was 13.35
I was also charged a “non bank ATM fee” of $5.00 and a Banamex ATM
withdrawal fee of $3.85.
That brought the exchange rate down to 12.69.

Yes, how many of us have had to report no fish today? There's a
reason. Do a google search for "Oro de Cortez" Part 1,2 and 3 to
find out why. You can see it in an English, and Spanish version.
Very important information about our fishery. Ken E.
