Mini McNair Reunion, TJ Style!

After our volunteer work at the hospice, Briseida, Alejandro, me and a bunch of the other volunteers went to downtown TJ to catch up on old times and, also, so that they could show me a more "genuine" side of the town.

Alex and Bri seemed to know their way around real well and the first place they took us was to this awesome cantina called "La Cantina de los Remedios". Notice the 2 for 1 drink special sign in the upper left. Suffice it to say, we took full advantage of the special that night ^_^

The infamous Baby Rock sat across the street. I had always heard about this place when I was frequenting TJ, but had never been to it since it seemed too high-class for me. Apparently, it was/is one of the top clubs in the LA, San Diego, TJ area.

The first thing I see walking into the cantina is a guy standing on the bar with a rope, lassoing a girl. Immediately, I knew we had come to the right place.

Wow, this photo reminds me of our McNair summer days. They're not kidding when they say you learn some of life's most important lessons in college.

Yeah, this bar was rad.

The sign above Briseida translates roughly to, "Serving drinks after 5 o'clock." Now, take a look at the clock.

After the cantina, we went to Porky's, a nightclub for 80's music and chic hipsters.

Yes, they sell 40s at the bar.

Do these people know how to have a good time or what?

I think there's another picture that I like from this roll that is missing... hehe. It's the one that comes after the Porky's crowd picture and before the Taco Stand... I think there's a red Prius in the background? ;)
