    Just finished at passport place. As long as you have all documents needed (triple check!!!) And proof of need and intent to travel that day or next day (surgery confirmation and San Diego flight itinery worked), they will expedite and you can pick up your passport the same day. Be aware of timing though make your appointment as early in day as possible, but show up 20 min before they open no matter what time your appt.. they open about 9am on Thursdays.. they take you in the order you show up in the waiting line regardless of appt. And if they expedite it still won't be ready ti 2pm or a little later. They said show up t 2 today and get back in line to pick up. Need special receipt. Had to call driver and postpone pickup for Mexico til 3 or 4. So far so good!

    Just picked up my first passport! Mexico in under 1 hour!! If you plan to do your passport in San Diego give yourself one extra day. It was doable but would have been less stressful if I had a buffer day...

    I gave the driver $5 on the way from San Diego to TJ and then each time the hotel driver took me somewhere I gave $2-3 each way. On the way home I realized how hard it was for him to get through the border and I gave him $10 for the ride back to San Diego Airport.
    God gave us people to love and things to use, not things to love and people to use.

    Husband had surgery with Dr. Lopez-Corvala last month via HealthTravel Guides. Travel to/from the border was seemless; however, allow yourself some extra time on the trip back from Mexico to US due to some lines.
