you know, no border wait on the way home. not being thouroughly searched at EVERY military checkpoint. meeting new folks-gringos and locals alike.

what are some of your favorite things that make a trip smooth?

here's another of my favorite things....

Surviving Hwy 1.

But then that's not a "little" thing...

Meeting old friends--you decide who and where

Graham and Bonnie the burro, Cielto Lindo?

Don't recognize the other people.

ah yes, a ballena or two to smooth out the dirt road-perfecto!

Graham and 'Mision' the burro, 1997 (the lady looks like Juanita at her bar, Cielito Lindo)...

'Bonnie' the burro was used back in the early 80's to carry supplies for the final section of Graham's walk around the coast of Baja, Laguna San Ignacio to Cabo San Lucas

Just the beach and the Sea of Cortez is what makes a weekend in Baja so special... Nothing much needed other than some shade, an ice chest full of cool and tastey things, and someone to share with...

OOps! Guess that's not possible if the burro's name is Bonnie.:no:

Sitting on the beach late at night when the kids have gone to bed, listening to the Whales blow, Coyotes howl, and just the silence of a beautiful night.

I love being down there on 10 day trip and by day three it already seems like its been a couple weeks--gets you all excited that there's so much more of the trip ahead...I just love how time stretches out down there. And, of course, the constant supplies of Ballenas!

Baja Bernie - 6-25-2007 at 08:39 PM

As usual David has it all correct................Toneart.........she would never do that..............I don't think and I guess it must be a girl burro......so well mannered. But not Bonnie.

Ken had everything except Bonnie right!

Plain old good times, good fires, and good memories!!

Raosting a fat one around the fire......er, um , a mashmallow that is...

Walking on a Baja beach, priceless!
