Bummer, we drove into Los Barriles about 5 pm today, and didn't see them on the way. Maybe on Saturday if we do the Cabo loop that day???

Great job John and Rachel!!

The Walkers have stopped near a residence or something for a break after walking 18.8 miles!! It's 30.7 more miles to San Jose. I'm guessing it's pretty darn hot for them today. Anybody know the temp out there today?

They're moving right along. I figure on 3 more days to Cabo, maybe 4, assuming they don't stop somewhere again.

They are on the move this evening, probably trying to make it to Mira Flores, I think next day San Jose.

Bummer that we missed them today! I see they went as far as Santa Anita, and we even stopped there to photograph an old house that turned into a bus station.

Good luck on your walk to Cabo guys!

We made it to Cabo today. It was a rough day and for the first time in the entire trip that we actually lost one another. We are now completed with the walk will be heading to Todos Santos to visit Hogar del Ninos next.

John and Rachel. Congratulations. San Felipe to Cabo… walking in the summer! What an accomplishment. What an example of gutsy determination.

Can only imagine what this has cost you. Hope you’re feet up and downing a few cold ones. You deserve it. Those charities and good causes can be proud of you.

Thank you everyone.

The last leg of our trip has changed slightly, so we are looking to see if anyone is heading north from La Paz in the next couple of days. We don't need to get all the way back to San Felipe, but Ensenada would be great.
