The Real Baja


I hope some things never change

camping at San Ignacio in town by the river - I was the only one



and the whales need Baja too



Exploration still beckons



and sometimes you get lucky and a hummer will let you peek



and of course the vultures are always lurking

your trip looked wonderful....I would love to see your pics bigger though. We usually camp at the same spot in San Ignacio...only problem for me is that those big frogs sing loudly all night long...in summer anyway...were there frogs singing there now?

Good job Wilderone... You seem to have the Photobucket to Nomad thing figured out. If you want to make them a bit bigger, re-upload at the 'Large' setting instead of Medium.

Yes, the frogs sang, but wasn't a problem. In the morning I first smelled baking bread and later a wood fire - kinda homey. It was quiet at night, but traffic on the street into town started before sun-up! A small town, but for some reason, a lot of early morning traffic. Still not really a problem though - I'd do it again. Big variety of birds there too. They're still working on hurricane damage - some uprooted date palms, and the trail along the river isn't cleared yet. Charged me 80 pesos.

A true oasis in the desert. I have always just driven by in the past. Next trip I will slow down and spend some time there. Great reflection shot, thanks!

Interesting that the sky is bluer in the reflection. Nice photo.
