The Staff at SanDiegoRed would like to add that, the list was originally compiled almost 6 years ago by the Tijuana conventions bureau, COTUCO, and the Crossborder Group, so it's a little rusty and out of date.

TIJUANA.- A few months ago I stumbled upon a list in Mexico Desconocido's magazine, written by Jimena Acevedo. As a new year's resolution and as part of the blog, I intend to go through the list of 120 things to do in Tijuana.

However, there are some activities that I'm going to change such as: number 63, shopping at Liverpool (now cosed), or number 21, pick a magazine at Sanborns [you can do that anywhere]. In the end, I will add and eliminate a few things; I might end up doing 150 activities.

As I make my way by doing this activities, I will keep you posted through the my blogs.
