Xen, Don't worry about having to 'hail' a cab. There's always plenty just waiting for you to walk up, and hop in. Also, don't worry about price. Just get in and tell the driver you want to go to, "Adelitas, por favor." When you get there, hand the driver a $5 as you're getting out of the cab. No worries. Walking between AB and CC is no big deal. Just be sure to walk in the street. NOT on the sidewalk. And, be aware of what's going on around you. It's such a short walk that you should be fine. Just try not to be too drunk when you make the trip between clubs. As for raids by the guardia or polica. Well, they're looking for guns, knives, and drugs. They may also be looking for under age chicas or chicas without Health Cards. Basic rule of thumb is to be polite and cooperate if asked for or about anything. Make sure that you're "clean" and polite, and most likely you'll be left alone. Oh, one other thing, but I'm sure you know this from your time in Nogales. DO NOT TAKE A DRINK OUTSIDE THE BAR. Not beer, and don't even take it up to the hotel with you. (I've seen several gringos get rolled up for this silly thing. At best, it'll cost you $20.) Stay smart. Stay aware. Stay polite. And, stay 'reasonably' sober. The MOST important thing of all is to have fun!
