(Past Trip) Wild on Desire, Spring Break 2007 U.S. Passports

This pertains to U.S. citizens as I am not sure on the regulations for Canadian citizens.
You must have a U.S. passport for any travel to Mexico if you are traveling by air starting at the end of January 2007. It is taking 6-8 weeks to receive one once you complete the process. However you can pay a extra fee to receive one in half that time.
The lines are very long and Uncle Sam has put every imagineable handling, shipping, processing fee that you he could find on top of the cost of the passport. This is no joke. If you have to get your picture taken at the passport office then that is another fee.
I am in total agreement for the necessity of the passports and I understand why. However I think we will eliminate the deficit with all the fees that they have created for travelers to get one.
So get in line and dont procrastinate or you will be viewing the group trip pictures to see what you missed when we return in March.
