No wonder they make a run for the border

This was my absolute favorite part of my one-day trip to Tijuana, Mexico, last summer. This building was just a short walk from the border. Notice the two signs:

Souvenir Shop
Clinica Dental

Yes, it's a combination dental clinic / bric-a-brac broker. You can get a root canal and a painted donkey T-shirt in the same visit – and pay in pesos or dollars.

I can only imagine the haggling that goes on over the price of fillings.
