| So Tijuana to Guerrero Negro for the first day? That's a long day given the first 200 miles goes through a lot of small towns that will slow you
down, and sunset is 5:15 pm. Not saying it can't be done (and there are plenty who will chime in and say they do it all the time), but kind of a
grueling long day in the car. I'd suggest an overnight before GN. If you take your time getting to El Rosario for the night - stop at Ensenada for
smoked fish, drive past La Bufadora, stop at the outdoor fruit market, buy olives at the stands, check out San Vicente mission - could be a more
enjoyable day. Then, refreshed, be better prepared for a long day on day 2 (much more relaxed, fewer small towns) - maybe to San Ignacio. Baja is
better outside the car. |
38th parallel??? I must have had Korea on my mind when I first wrote this. I have no idea what they check nowadays at the GN Ag stop.
At one time they asked for my FMM and my Aduana declaration paperwork. Since then GN has always my first night's stop so the little office has
always been closed by the time I get there.
hence
one could say it's a San Quintin hotel.
