Something beyond what was just around the block. Something authentic. Something genuine.<\/p>\n<p>So we got two cars and started driving south. We left around midnight, and stopped at a restaurant in San Diego for some food.

After getting insurance and visiting a money exchange, we set about navigating the city of Tijuana. Eventually we found a good truck, and we had the most delicious tacos I&#8217;ve had in my life, accompanied by silky, rich horchata.<\/p>\n<p>We got back to campus that afternoon exhausted, but satisfied, having spent a weekend night+day well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blacker.caltech.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_20191201_104641.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-929 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blacker.caltech.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_20191201_104641-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"628\" height=\"471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blacker.caltech.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_20191201_104641-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blacker.caltech.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_20191201_104641-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blacker.caltech.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_20191201_104641-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you read Scru&#8217;s post about late night meals, you&#8217;ll know about our habitual visits to Arturo&#8217;s taco truck a few minute&#8217;s drive from campus.
