Be very careful on the highway. Semana Santa. Lotsa traffic, mixed with cervesas.:!:

Bajaboy - 4-13-2011 at 10:31 AM

Have fun...should be nice and quiet in BA. Give us a shout if you plan on stopping over in SD.

24baja - 4-13-2011 at 11:15 AM

37 for us.....and counting! Have a safe and glorious trip!

Bajagypsy - 4-13-2011 at 11:42 AM

We are use to traveling the highway, and will be careful of traffic, that is the easy part of the trip for us, the hard part is getting to the Baja boarder!

bajaboy, will do!

24baja, have fun, the count down kills me, I tried to put it out of my mind till today, so I didn't sit around and have to think about it!

Have a safe trip bajagypsy:saint: Your going to miss the Canucks run for the Cup. Only 40 years in the making mind you:o I'am heading to Loreto May 13th, but flying down to my casa. I sure hope my neighbour's Shaw cable is working fine:bounce: GO Canucks GO. I know your also cheering for them, RIGHT:o

Bajagypsy - 4-14-2011 at 06:54 AM

Puckdrop, I actually am more excited for the UFC fight on April 30! I'm not a follower of hockey, I know I will have to renounce my Canadianism over stating this publicly!

DK,
Maybe you are the "boarder". Weren't you arrested and put in jail by the spelling police?:yes::lol:

Gypsy,
On departure day you can abandon your cerebral "cortex" for the real thing. Exchange it for Cerveza Pacifico. You will just need to make a trip over to Mulege from Asuncion. :yes:

Bajagypsy - 4-17-2011 at 06:05 AM

I'm sooooo excited can not stand it, and apparently it is causing me to not be able to spell!
Toneart, can not wait to change my "cortex" for the real thing! I'm so excited I can't stand it!

Bajagypsy - 4-18-2011 at 05:31 AM

Not sure how productive I'm going to be this week at work! Got most of our stuff hauled to the garage, to be loaded up in the truck! Pile of laundry done, kids squared away with were they will stay while we are gone, Dog to the vet for her first trip down! Reservation made in National City for our one and only hotel stay for the first 26-30 hour portion of our drive! Then we will haul burro to Asuncion! Can hardly wait!!!!

Bajagypsy - 4-19-2011 at 05:04 AM

Can hardly wait, only 2 more sleeps!

Cypress - 4-19-2011 at 05:22 AM

Bahagypsy, Have a safe trip. :D

bajafam - 4-19-2011 at 08:31 AM

Have fun guys!! Wish we were there with you!!

Bajagypsy - 4-19-2011 at 11:44 AM

Bajafam, wish you were here as well!
Good thing it is only two sleeps, it is trying to snow here again!

bajafam - 4-19-2011 at 03:14 PM

The kids and I escaped the snow to come to Florida (it snowed two days before we left and I'm sure it will snow again before we get back!) ~ have fun frolicking with Senor Izaak!!

Bajagypsy - 4-19-2011 at 03:18 PM

So can not wait to play with Izaak, we are picking him and his beautiful mom up on the way down!

bajafam - 4-19-2011 at 03:22 PM

How fun!!!!
Smooches all around!!!

fixtrauma - 4-20-2011 at 12:02 AM

bajafam - 4-20-2011 at 05:25 AM

No, you are down to a "wake-up".... good for you!

Bajagypsy - 4-21-2011 at 05:17 AM

surfdoc, thanx for the offer, don't think there is anything at the moment! It will be great to meet you as well! We should get in sometime after supper on Sat, look for the big 3/4 ton diesel truck! This time of year is very windy in Asuncion, as long as our house is standing it is all good!

Leaving in 11 hours, will try to do a proper trip report along the way! 30 some long hours ahead yet just to get to National City CA, but once we are on the road I don't care!

Bob, very excited to be "waked-up" at the moment, just wish work wasn't getting in the way of our leaving!

Bajagypsy,

We've been reading along with your post, having the same number of sleeps left until we get to "go home" too. My brain woke me up at 4:30 am, all excited to get on the road today, only someone forgot to tell my brain that I have a long day of work ahead of me first before I can go. There was no way I could go back to sleep with baja dancing in my head. We'll be pulling into Bahia on Saturday.

I'll never complain about how long it takes us to get to the border again, by the way. You guys take care, drive safely and have a fantastic trip.

P>*)))>{

Bajagypsy - 4-21-2011 at 06:40 AM

Paulina, my brain woke me up very early as well. Very hard not to say "screw it" and just leave, work wouldn't be to mad would it?
have a safe trip as well, and have a wonderful time in your "real home"

How long with you be in Bahia? We may be making a trip there and would love to meet you!

Bob H - 4-21-2011 at 07:05 AM

Really looking forward to your trip reports (hopefully, daily).
Bob H

Bajagypsy - 4-21-2011 at 03:35 PM

Bob I'm going to try really hard to updated daily!

Hubby just called he is on his way to pick me up from work, look out for the traveling Gypsies!

BajaBlanca - 4-21-2011 at 04:47 PM

safe trips both of youse !!
