Need to see beautiful beach pictures

Bajagypsy - 12-5-2013 at 07:25 AM

It is currently -41 with the wind in good ole Saskatoon, I'm in desperate need of seeing beautiful beach pictures!

I'll start, this picture was taken about 11 years ago. Its the first time we took all the kids to Todos Santos.

I just had the privilege of watching the sunrise on the beach in Loreto….

but I didn't take any pictures, sorry.

Here's one for you Bajagypsy:



My sweetie just returned from a conference in Saskatoon last week. Lucky for her they were having a 'heat wave'...i.e., lows only in the single digit minus numbers...ha!

Bajagypsy - 12-5-2013 at 08:31 AM

Thank you!

Here's a Couple From Pescadero

Monoloco those are spectacular.

I feel your pain; we grew up in Wisconsin which is only about 2 degrees F warmer than Saskatoon. So here's a slide show entitled "Flying Home Again to Baja" that I made. It will make you warm :-)

Monoloco those are beautiful!
Bonanza bucko, loved it! We have a "Charlie" of our own that wakes us each morning, either dropping clams or skiing down our metal roof in Asucnion!

From a few trips to Shell Island...

The most beautiful beaches in the world!!

Pompano - 12-5-2013 at 11:54 AM

Sure thing, Bajagypsy,

Like you, bonanzabucko, KurtG, and a few other Nomads, I grew up where the winters were long, severe, and deadly cold. As a kid, I'd read and daydream about warmer places, sunny beaches with clear blue waters...and started making plans to get there!

The daydreaming...



So I went looking...

Here's a couple choices for you. Enjoy your options.

Took this one of Waikiki in 1986. Super popular and exactly the same today. It's warm and okay, but like me, I think you prefer Baja's beaches.




Conception Bay...literally miles of sandy beach...take your pick.




Family picnics at Sta. Barbera Cove



Kayak & enjoy the privacy of your own island beach.



When picnicking you may have to share the beach.





And of course, that old time favorite....Coyote Beach.



There you go, Bajagypsy...all kinds of warm beaches to take your mind of that freezing weather Up North. I remember those times all too clearly.....brrrr.

Please stay safe and warm, I just got an email from a Manitoba resident who is snowed in at a cabin until they clear the roads.


Opps...forgot to add this one from your own backyard in Asuncion..

How about a few from near Bahia Conceptcion and Loreto? Hope this helps recharge the batteries (hey, it's only going up to 60 here at the beach in SoCal).












Bajagypsy - 12-5-2013 at 12:06 PM

Wow, you guys rock! This is just what was needed! Mr. Gypsy doesn't know it but I booked plane tickets for us to leave on December 26 to San Diego, and then rented a car. Its his Christmas present, so we should be at our place on December 26, or at the latest December 27. We will need it as this cold front is here to stay for a bit.

jimgrms - 12-5-2013 at 12:11 PM

I was wondering why you hadn't already left I -9 in denver and i left 18 months ago but now i'm kinda stuck in Oceanside .

The full moon in your photo reminding me of when we camped at El Requeson, in 2007:






Bajagypsy - 12-5-2013 at 03:32 PM

loving all the picture!!! Thank you Nomads!!!

mtnpop - 12-5-2013 at 03:36 PM

Can't post the pics but just sit back close your eyes and think warm wind and sand between the toes...

now.. Thurs. 5 Dec. Mulege 70 degrees Westcliffe Co. 4 degrees...
So my decision is to hang around Mulege for a tad longer maybe 4 months or so...
could be worse... not!!!!

vgabndo - 12-5-2013 at 03:41 PM

Another from BA...


StuckSucks - 12-5-2013 at 06:40 PM

Wow... heaven for sure! Discovered/named in 1746 by Padre Fernando Consag, the Indians were already there enjoying the place!:bounce:

I posted (I thought several photos from many beaches in Baja, but they did not post. Took me a long time to cut and paste.
Oh well!!

It looks as though our family has a new good photographer now: Mr StuckSucks.

Bajagypsy - 12-6-2013 at 07:59 AM

Wow, thank you so much. It is even colder today -45 with the wind. :barf:

Have to win the lotto, or something sooner rather than later i think!

Martyman - 12-6-2013 at 11:41 AM

One of my favorite photos on Nomads was one of you, bajagypsy, bedecked in seaweed! Please post!

Hope that helps.

This looks like a Canadian beach with all the clothes, but it's Baja.


shari - 12-6-2013 at 09:02 PM

Bajagypsy - 12-8-2013 at 08:35 AM

Wow you guys rock! All the pictures are amazing! So can't wait to get down to Baja, the deep freeze we are in is here to stay for a bit. A town an hour and a half from us was -57 with the wind yesterday! We were at a balmy -47 with the wind yesterday!:lol:

How about an ugly beach picture?

Everyone has such beautiful pictures!

fishbuck - 12-8-2013 at 05:26 PM

Gypsy would you please keep your cold Canadian air up there where it belongs! It was 16f here in Everett Washington last night. Or Southern Canada as I now call it.;D

We are 'freezing' in San Diego with near 50ºF (above 0) temperatures!!! Our blood is too thin for that kind of abuse!

Roger, that used to be my wall paper. I got mine from one of the Margaritaville sites.;D

I feel your pain Gypsy, as much as I love the people of Saskatoon (I lived there for 7 years) the winters suck.

Here's one while driving the back road to La Bocana


Bajagypsy - 12-9-2013 at 04:49 AM

The count down is on! Had to tell Mr. Gypsy what his Christmas present was as he was going to go renew his passport, and book a trip to Toronto during our Baja trip!

We are now both counting down the days, and can't wait to get to our Baja home!
