Thanks. Very cool movie.
Anybody else surprised by how close the Ensenada cultural palace is to the beach. I knew they had "reclaimed" some tideland, but, wow.

That was very nice, I especially enjoyed the old view of Cabo San Lucas, What a special place it once was. I really liked the village baker.

That was great Jesse. Seeing Cabo like that got me kinda teary eyed.

I liked it too. Can you imagine getting fresh water from a sail boat guy that comes by only one time a day with limited amounts.

Loved the "sleepy little town" comment about Cabo. Early Kodachrome, looked like. An amazing treat. Thanks.

What a treat!
The baking oven looked like what we saw on our first trip to Loreto in 1977. And my love affair with panaderias hasn't declined a bit since then.

THE OLD DAYS OF BAJA: LOBSTER, ABS, AND MORE
I just received this nostalgic old travelogue of Baja California from a neighbor and fellow nomad, Vince.
A 1949 Production.
Thanks, Vince...An enjoyable viewing for all Baja fans and newbies.
It sure reminds me of Baja 'back in the day'.

not to hijack the threat - BUT - Marlin Perkins was the naturalist on Sir Edmond Hillary's first climb of Mt Everest - Little know fact!
