Texan/American Couple on a M/C travel BAJA (YouTube). All 3 Episodes now added

Some good droning vistas...inside GN saltworks was interesting ... good example of newbie jitters first day

Spoiler Alert....heavy on missionary history.

Thanks for the post

Very interesting vid! Especially from a technical standpoint.
I would like to know. These guys entered Santa Rosalia. Was the Dentist in Santa Rosalia as well? That`s not quite clear but seems so.
And if somebody reports from missions in Baja - David K is not far away!

Yes, the continuity was scattered.... and when she was showing off San Ignacio "oasis" campsite, I thought, "Well, I could see it if you moved your face from covering the shot..."

You brought it to the point! The continuity is confusing. Nevertheless the vid is good, no doubt. I like it. Lots of interesting Baja spots (even with the faces covering some) I also was wondering about the headline: How low can you go? That`s from the Limbo Rock out of the Good ol`Days.
"Limbo lower now". Chubby Checker.

Chubby Checker. Yawn... I made it thru 20 seconds of video and found it to be worthless crap. Meandering unstructured overly-long video travelogue in baja as if no one has ever done a road trip in Mexico. [Edited on 4-29-2021 by mtgoat666]

Well goat, in this board everybody knows that your concentration ends at about 20 or 22 seconds. So why r u telling everybody again.... and again .... and again? WE KNOW !

then again...that nice couple didn't sign on here did they

I fully agree that a LOT of work goes into recording and editing photo and video pieces. Been thru that before I gave up doing ride reports w/ pics and vids.

These days my adventuring is focussed on the ride/drive and not recording it for others to enjoy. Because, face it, such efforts are really intended have other folks say.... "Wow, aren't you cool..." or some other need for validation as much as the intent is travel info...

I really enjoy finding good travel docs.....the good ones don't have so much "Look at me" moments....

I watched all of a recent travel blog reviewed on BN recently with Goose and the couple from Arizona....good blend of visuals, local info, and narrative. I had a bit of withdrawal jonesing when they came back to the USA ...

I have five trays of slides and a sound track from a 3 month Central America adventure ....you think anyone wants to sit through that ???

It was a life-changing trip....meaningful really to only me.

Sorted 85 rolls of slides (pre-digital cameras), edited for the best, and spent weeks developing sound track..... showed it a few times at cultural events and local immigration centre....

Lots of Baja go-pro footage unedited....some I may never even watch again, never mind edit.

But, I like to see well-done adventure docs..... just too many "influencers" promoting themselves more than the territory.

Heck, I even paid attention to some of the missionary stuff



I rarely take photos anymore..... just a few for myself.

for some its a hobby for some here it's an out and out obsession, for decades of traveling baja our go to was "get a picture of that"...."got it!"never owned a camera. but I sure am glad you decided to snap a few Ged, the adventures you let us tag along on over at ADVrider.......priceless!

It's all stored on 3 different boxed computers and other several generations of vid equipment.... a project on my CDT* list.
