Anybody know what was up at the Border on Saturday?

I headed down, got there about 1:00pm. As I was getting off the "Last USA Exit" to park at World, there were several CHP bikes comming the wrong way up the offramp. As I got closer to the light, they had the offramp blocked off, and they forced me and about 4 other cars to turn back onto the freeway into Mexico. This struck me as very odd start with, being forced out of the country by a California cop. I figured I'd turn around, but there was a major line headed back to the US, so I said as long as I'm here I might as well have some fun. I looked around for a parking lot, several that I passed were full. I finally found one up on Calle 3rd. I headed out to the Zone, but couldn't stop worrying about my truck as the lot was a real shit hole. Had a bit of fun, grabbed some Tacos, then went back for my truck. I drove around till I found the lot a little down the street from Aztec massage. I little nicer there. BTW, I've never driven in Mexico before. Had a little more fun and decided to hit the road.

I wasn't sure how to get to the border, but I finally found a sign pointing to San Diego. Going along there was a fork in the freeway, the San Diego side was closed by Mexican Police, and they were directing all traffic towards Tecate.

So I figured something must be wrong at the border. Not knowing my way around, at all, I started heading for Tecate. On the way, I saw signs for Mesa De Otay. Is this the same as Otay Mesa? Well, seemed worth a try. Man did I get shit lost. I was driving all over hell, almost starting to panick, when I found myself in line at the Otay Mesa border crossing wioth no idea how I got there. Well, two hours later I was back in the USA. Got home and put on the news, not a word. Any idea?
