Wow, Mike, Don-Kay and Solo are on the move, again!

Just over 10 miles south from La Aguja today:

Beautiful words, Rob, and photo! Our weather here in Pescadero/TS has been a little foggy but clears with day temps on mid 70s with 15 to 20 mph n/w winds. Nice but not summer glass! Tribal council here feels the coastal route is best, esp Monoloco who knows the area best as he has explored via motorcycle. Party-Pachanga on at Donnie Boyz casita here in Pescadero near the beach in the Huerta or farming area. Come on over Nomads! What route did Graham MacIntosh take when traveling thru here into Cabo?? Did Mike pre run/walk this area? There are many beautiful Rocky headlands and gorgeous coves and beaches but no coastal camino. Looking forward to our visit with Mike and Co. Sale, Tio

For DK

The Cabo police station that I am familiar with is on the outskirts of town way up the hill to the north, on Hwy towards Todos Santos.

22 55'08.21N 109 58'14.94 on Google Earth.

I'm not surprised that there is another station. But I'm wondering, why end the trip at the police station?

One reason might be that the station by the mall is about the only place in downtown Cabo San Lucas where you can park a horse trailer. There is a huge public parking lot there.

You nailed it. "On the outskirts of town way up the hill to the north, on Hwy towards Todos Santos". Two things: Donk don't like the inskirts, & Mike in his own way finds it fitting, the police station.

Migrino is the bottom of the funnel, road from the outback, to his personal finish line.

Hi Guys,

Sorry I am so late getting today's map and location image on Nomad... my PC is runny muy muy despacio and we were gone all day until a couple hours ago.

Perhaps because I am tired, but which police station is Mike going to? Why a police station?... I don't know why!... Just reading the thread every day like the rest of you! :biggrin::light: and I don't know or remember if a reason was guiven other than a neutral location where some validation of Mike's arrival could be made. Like the original runners of the Baja peninsula arriving in La Paz in the 1960's!

Fresh in. This is by and between Mike & family. Need contacts up the line to pass this message to Mike.

Two of Mike's daughters & 3 grand daughters have booked a cruise docking
Cabo 7 AM March 17th. Grand daughters are 16, 17, & 18.

Mike planed to lag, meeting them the 19th. That changes now. After docking, they will transfer to the police station and spend the day they have celebrating with Mike. Ship leaves Cabo at 5. They have a window from 7 AM - 3 PM only, March 17.

WOW...That will be a fun way for Mike's daughters to get to Cabo!!! I'm sure Mike can tear himself away from the Pesky boys and step up the pace and be there on the 17th...and this also gives all you Nomads down south a date to go to Cabo for some shopping and a finish line fiesta with Mike and gang....sure wish I could be there but I'll be kissing whales on the 17th.

Amigos, Pesky Boyz would like to check in with SurfDoc's friend Adam. I was cruising La Pastora but got no clue where/who --Las Playitas is beautiful but solitary. A phone number or U2U to exchange cell ph numbers would be helpful in our Pachanga Party planning. I believe his llegada there should be hoy mismo, right?! Mine is 612 118 1040. Don't be scared off by wild women answering the phone.:o:cool: Tio
