Hey thanks everyone for the travel advice. We got back a few days ago and overall had a great trip. The weather was unsettled so we had some days of wind and rain. Also had some days where we could boat and swim. We camped at La Gringa, found whale sharks in the south end of the bay, and the fishing was not outrageous but not bad either. All in all a great trip.

I was surprised to find that the camping was free this time around. Daily garbage pick up too.

For the first time in 30 years to Baja I was involved in a local cop trying to shake me down for a trumped up traffic stop. Early in the morning, two blocks into Tecate I got pulled over for running a red light. The cop wanted me to pay him directly; I insisted on the police station with a written ticket; outside the police station he again asked me to pay him directly; I insisted we go inside the station; after some himhawing back and forth; he told me to have a nice day and I could go. Wasted 25 minutes but gave me a good story. :-)

Thanks again and safe travels to you all!

Those baby manta flying out of the water are something! I have only seen adults do that.

Thanks for the two videos at that link!
