caravan
There always seems to be some posting about caravans around the web. Some folks like em, some don't. I always thought a good caravan to sell would
take you around Mexico or Baja at a leisurely rate, stopping to smell the roses, so to speak. And if it included learning spanish along the way, what
a deal. You could provide each caravaner books, interactive cd, and a 1 or 2 hour lesson per day. What do you think?

There was at one time a Bus, known as "The Green Turtle" which went up and down Baja. I do understand that it was a very L:iberal Arrangement.
May still be operating.
Now as to American Caravans{ there have been many starting the Day of the road opening.] One of the problems is the necessity of a Good mechanic along
who speaks Spanish.
The next is a Guide who knows where to find the Water, Gas, Hook-ups.
Good Luck

Baja is too small for caravans; the ecology too sensitive for a horde of huge vehicles to invade. And who has polluted the waters of Conception Bay
with their toilet tanks - caravaners. They're a nuisance on the highway - too slow, too big, too many to pass one by one.

I don't think Republicans have them all, but if you asked a Democrat they would say "the goverment owes them one".

It is the Green Tortoise, here is their web site: http://www.greentortoise.com/
They regularly visit the hot springs near the road to Agua Verde and hold their group activities in the huge palapa at Rancho San Cosme (where the low
tide road to the springs begins). The big bus stays parked at the top of the grade, and the guests are shuttled down the mountain in a smaller rig.

Ok, so we tell all them Whacked out Blue haired people to Go get their Own place to vacation!!
And we should Sue All the Caravan and Motorhome, Travel Trailer companies for polluting Conception Bay!! Hmm..maybe we can even bring a Class Action
against those in tents...they dont Even use bathrooms....they just urinate and defecate in the water and bushes... YEAH... That's even Better!!
So where did you get your Wild idea that Conception was polluted by "Huge Vehicles in Caravans?"

Oops....I should have clarified that i haven't been on a caravan, but it does sound like it might be fun. Almost like having a bunch of friends for a
party! Every Night!!
