Baja 709-3: DAY 5 (AM): Bahia Concepcion
DAY 5 (Wednesday July 22)
(This is continued from DAY 4 at: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=40372 )
We say our goodbyes to Bob, Susan, Marta and their other guests and are out to Highway One at 10:50 am. Our destination today is Loreto, after seeing
the mission-era sites at San Juan Bautista Londo and Ligui. We also plan to check out the beaches and happenings at Ensenada Blanca, Ligui and
Juncalito.
As we drive south along Bahia Concepcion, I try taking photos while driving slowly (with no cars behind me)!
Santispac is the first beach Highway One passes... Posada Concepcion, Burro Beach and others follow...
EL COYOTE:
BUENAVENTURA:
EL REQUESON:
ON SOUTH:
Why you don't drive at night in Baja (miss the view and black cows!):
Coming up in the next part of DAY 5 (PM) are the photos and report on the sites we visited south of Bahia Concepcion. We camp on Bahia Concepcion the
night of DAY 6... some good photos to share of our beach palapa camp! Stay tuned!

Wow! That Canon is good! (to play on David' modesty).
David, in regards to El Patron, Tim is the guy with the white hair and red nose who is partners with the woman who owns it. He is usually around,
acting as host and greeter. For sure he is at the bar at closing time.

Thanks amigos... I enjoy the trip reporting almost as much as the trip... !
I have some great mission photos and discoveries still to come... With details and directions on the ruins west of Punta Chivato near Boca de
Magdalena that have been mis-named on maps as 'Santa Maria Magdalena' since Arthur North camped there in 1906!
Lot's more to come, stay tuned!
