Umm...it's my parents place, but I think it would of been great if the guard had put up a sign that said he would be back soon.

We are open and we have had LOTS of RV's in the past few days. We are next door to Jardines Baja, hotel/restaurant. Come check us out.;D

Thank you for responding Marita. We had a relaxing overnight stay on Wednesday. It's a relief to be able to pull up after a long days drive especially when you're towing or hauling a load and can't go exploring for campsites.

Immaculate bathrooms and extra hot showers !

In defense of the cuidadero at Los Olivos, on our previous trip we pulled up after dark when we shouldn't have been traveling anyway so they probably didn't expect anybody to come rolling in.

Thanks again for being there.

An update and changes at Los Olivos campground S.Q


An update on Los Olivos campground as of Feb 21, 10:

Last week there was a new caretaker at the campground (a nice man from Canada) who said that the park had been sold to a non-profit christian group. They plan to keep a few of the public campsites (for now, at least) and they will be expanding the park for larger groups of kids for religious camping retreats.

They have other plans for a small school onsite and pastor's offices etc.

It sounds like for now you will still be able to spend the night either dry camping or in one of the 4 or 5 full hook up sites but the future may be uncertain for we overnighters. Dang- If it goes away I'll miss this convenient spot and their wonderful clean , hot showers.

Hi Oladulce,


You said you were hauling possesions in your earlier post, how did the importation process go? And at which border? Pay in pesos only?

Thanks, BW

Hello Irene...

My husband Jerry and I first met you and your husband, Jose, a number of years ago, during one of our "must visits" to Posada Don Diego's restaurant. Every time we're in Baja, we always come out, often with many friends in tow. We have always enjoyed the food.... and your Sunday buffet is terrific!

I must admit though, we missed seeing you the last few times we'd paid a visit and thought you may have gone to the mainland.

We'll be back in May, and hope you'll be around. We'll definitely come by for your great food and say hello!

Linda

Linda,
Thanks you. I should be here all month in May. and will come over the restaurant anytime unless the desserts are in the oven have to finish them first.
Our sunday buffet is pretty good. As you know.
I spend many hours doing reservations and party, catering events.
No I wanted to go and try Ajiji but Jose would not go. His poker buddies are here so here we are. But the real reason the grandkids.
See you may.
thanks again
