I follow two of the astronauts currently on the space station, Reid Wiseman (astro_reid) and Alexander Gerst ( astro_alex) on twitter.
If their orbit takes them over that area they'll probably post those photos.
They post a lot of cool stuff, well worth following.

Sunday night you can look up and see them going over, Baja Sur time. Deduct an hour for north.

Wow, I wish I could get down the length of Baja in 4 minutes. There must not be much traffic up there.
