Forest in Misiones


The region receives a lot of rain, and supports heavy forests. DIfferent from arid Baja California. This is the ruins of the church of Loreto mission.

Sorry


Nope, I didn't do GPS of the mission sites, but most are easy enough to locate so you will be able to find them the next time you drive down for the weekend. Here are the ruins of San Juan Bautista mission.

Too many photos in one thread


Those of us on a dial up or web tv cannot see or must wait great durations to see photos when so many are posted in a single thread... I would like to see the photos, but consider limiting to say 5 max. per thread, then make a new post for additional pics. I know you must be still adding pictures here, but I cannot see them. Thanks.

AA. I am so pleased your trip was productive...


I have very much enjoyed the photos and look forward to the new links.

My sister and other family members are encourging me to teach English in Central or South America or even Mexico, and I want to pick your noodle about South America in this regard.

Good to have you back.

Teaching English


RandyMac. If you consider teaching in South America, I think Buenos Aires would be the best bet for you.
