Mike Younghusband presentation
Mike Younghusband will be making a slideshow (Powerpoint) presentation - showing photos from his 1000+ mile hike down the Baja California peninsula -
on Saturday evening, May 21st. Solo Vino (Sola Vino) will be in attendance as well.
Rumor is that there may be a special presentation made by a representative from the Baja California Dept of Tourism. 
Hope you can make it. Please RSVP in this thread so that I know how many people to plan for.
This will take place...
When: 6p-9p, Saturday, May 21st, 2011.
Where:
Best Western Seven Seas
411 Hotel Circle South
San Diego, CA 92108
In the Lord Jim room. Enter through the Cafe and head straight back - past Zack's Bar. No outside food or drink (sorry). There'll be a water
station (and Zack might have some drink specials).
Requested donation: $5/each (to cover the room fees from the hotel)
Please plan to be there and welcome Mike back from his five and a half month journey down the peninsula.

I wonder if they know about the first Baja internet gettogether that David K had in San Clemente in 2000, were Lorenzo de Baja and myself got caught
with a bottle of Cazadores and it got confiscated

I remember that well! That was one SHARP-EYED waitress!
Thanks Ferna... I miss Lorenzo de Baja's fun history and Baja trivia exchanges we had on Amigos de Baja! LdB and I had two trips to Baja together
exploring sites (they are the 2nd and 3rd trip pages I have photos of on VivaBaja.com).

I know Mike's scheduling some other dates with other groups. One of the people I contacted for this was
John Mead of Adventure 16 - as I knew they had the space to do it, and Mike's the right type of person to make a presentation there... as well as it
being a private business location that we'd probably have no issue getting the dog (Solo) into (restaurants and hotels are a little tricky with that).
Anyway, we just couldn't put something together with John in a short period of time, and will be working on getting Mike connected with them so that
he can possibly make a presentation there later on.
When I mentioned Adventure 16 to Mike, he told me he was a customer of theirs, and that the boots he wore all the way down the peninsula (he only used
one pair btw), came from A16!
So, I believe there will be other opportunities along the way to see Mike's presentation.
When I was young, I admired clever people. Now that I am old, I admire kind people.

btw... I know how many people I need to RSVP for at least - and along with the other 15 RSVPs already... I'm now thinking there's potential we could
hit capacity for the room that night.
Thusly, know this... I may need to LIMIT RSVPs to this event at - or near - 80 people (if there end up being that many people
interested). If so, I could only guarantee entry to those that RSVP ahead of the potential limit.

Hey, Doug !!
Put me in for 2 seats. I'm working that day but will either get off a little early or come a little late. Looking foward to it...... ....
Don\'t mess with the old dog...... Age and skill will always overcome youth and treachery! Brilliance only comes with age and

Put me in for 3 please.
If I hear about another presentation around the same time (even if later) , I may change to that one to allow others to go to this one. Bummer on the
80 person limit...
