I would highly recommend planning on at least a few days here to make it worth the drive in...you will love it but to truly relax you need a couple
days to hang out here. I'm finding that many who came for a couple days are now making it their destination on their next trip in as there is so much
to offer here for fun and it's a super laid back, relaxing place.
Yeah Wariors, where is that trip report???

this is that big load the warriors were packin! Definately win the prize for most stuff! a genuine toy boy! They got alot of staring with mouth agape
looks from the locals as they blew into town for sure. That was the first ever jet ski I've seen zoom by our place...guess they didn't see Sirena out
on the rocks with her thumb out! The sealions were also perplexed by that contraption...but it sure looked like fun.

desert as well.
You will really enjoy Bahia Asuncion! |
Guess we stop more and drive slower---also, didn't you cross the border before dawn? Not something we like to do. And if you cross later, one could
end up driving the final road after dark---not a good idea IMHO.
Oh, by the way, just where is your trip report----been waiting.  Would like to see it before we leave if, and I hope it does, includes
pictures---easy to load pictures here. If you used the Internet Cafe in BA, you know how slow it can be. zzzzzzzzzzz.
is it possible to not make el rosario during daylight hours??? or am i misreading????
Next time, I hope we are in town.

Like she said Woody, they make a lot of stops!
Diane, about 230 miles from the border to El Rosario, 6 hours driving moderate speed.
We made some stops, but just to let us and the dogs take our pee break. With that load we were hardly breaking speed records or taking any chances
passing.
And yes, we left San Diego at 3 a.m. With all of the recent negative activity along the border, I have rethought that approach.
Thanks for posting that photo Shari!
Haven't had a bad trip yet....

Woody,
El Rosario----very easy to reach, it also takes us about 6 hours unless we do a lot of shoping in Ensenada. Also, we almost always stop for breakfast
in San Vicente. --- Catavina also easy.
The 12 hours I was speaking about was all the way to Bahia Asuncion---for us that would be pushing it, but if motivated, probably could do it. So the
daylight I was refering to was also in regards to reaching Bahia Asunision---we don't leave at 3 a.m.
