Two Cities...

San Diego/Tijuana
the most trafficked border in the world (70,000 a day).
Are they two cities, or one large integrated zone?


Shoppers cross the border, in both directions.
Families cross the border, in both directions.
Students cross the border, in both directions.
Church groups cross the border (maybe in just one direction).

It's an interesting question,
what does it mean to you to cross the border?

What are you looking for when you do?




The border as it extends into the ocean.
Families used to touch hands here,
Priests used to serve communion also.
But now there is a no-man's-land
in between and people can't approach the fence.

Every time I cross the border I learn something...about my home culture, another person's world, the God of us all, and maybe mostly things about myself....both good and bad.
