RANCHO EL TANGALIOTE - PUERTO NUEVO - BCS
Les took a 2 day trip to Puerto Nuevo ... and had a great time ... it is south of Tortugas: the Cabanas were comfortable, the bathroom was outside
and clean, the people were friendly. He was invited so he stayed for free, but I will investigate to get the prices ... wanted to share the photos.
It is an oasis and the flowers were in full bloom and plenty of veggies to be had as well (tomatoes, chiles)

You will have to click on the extra link that appears when you click on the one above to see the photos. Sorry, but I can't figure out (once again)
how to make the link shorter. David will be on here soon to help me out, hopefully. Insert a really deep sigh here .....

Blanca,
I would do the small link for you, but for some reason when we are here the buttons never work for me---work ok in the US---tis a great mystery.
But this is a clickable link http://picasaweb.google.com/BajaBlancaLes/PUERTONUEVOINBAJAC...
Thanks so much for the photos. We have see the signs for that place on our way to Tortugas and wondered about it. We think we would like to visit.
I wonder how they feel about dogs? Do you know?
Thanks
Diana
On edit---see that you fixed your link

VIII Puerto Nuevo Lobster Festival was a few weeks ago, yeah?
This is my sort of place to camp at...looks like a Viking's playground. Just how far from TJ of a drive is this place?
Are Americans allowed to catch Lobster? License needed? A pack of 6 tails at the Sacramento Costco....was $178.00 two months ago. No kidding....and
yes...I was wearing my specs!
The huts.....whats the rate for the huts? Sorry about all the questions...but this is really a great looking spot to go to.
Thanks for the photos. Just great.

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

You do realize that Puerto Nuevo in the photos is between Bahia Tortugas and Bahia Asuncion... and not the Puerto Nuevo just south of Rosarito?
No, Americans cannot legally catch any shellfish in Mexico (clams, lobster, oysters, crabs).

I did not.
Can you post one of your famous maps of this area?

I still have to find out the price of the cabanas, but it is indeed as rustic as you can get. which is what makes it even more special !! I am pretty
sure Les was the first foreigner to ever stay there.

Those are your photos from your album... I did nothing but add them here by using this (located right above where you type a post):
and paste in the URL for the photo... here is the URL for one:
http://lh6.ggpht.com/_huTNxYC48CE/TMsI1rSYu4I/AAAAAAAAADc/it...
now if you put that URL in the pop up that appeard when you click on this:
OR add a [img] and a [/img] to each side of the URL (no spaces) , the photo appears here on Nomad... you can do several... I double space between each
photo...
LOOK:
YOU CAN DO IT!
Remember to reduce photos to under 800 pixels for posting this way if they are over. In Photobucket, click 'more options' before you click to upload
photos and choose 15" screen or Large.
