My Tijuana Taxi cab confession

Oh man! The cab ride was hysterical! We walked across the border into Mexico and got a cab to take us to Puerto Nuevo to eat Lobster.  The taxi broke down 3 times and the driver had to stop twice to ask directions.  Luckily the 3 people I was with (roomies Kristen and Jim and Kristen's boyfriend Matt) were not freaking out over it, we were all laughing.  Well, actually, the first time we broke down, there happened to be 2 shady looking characters on the side of the road, but they ended up being no trouble at all.  The taxi driver had to keep getting under the car to fix it, which has its own charm, but to exit the car he had to kick the door out! And to top it off, the gas fumes were so bad in the car that Kristen was getting high and the windows wouldn't roll down.  Also, the driver was flying by the other cars about 2 inches from them on the passenger side, where I was seated with no seatbelt!  Man that lobster was delicious!
