Capt KW, we didnt miss the lagoon, it was rad, pics are on the site and especially in the blog, I even was attacked by a mouse...TWICE while collecting wood. What we missed was the mission and ladies Bed and breakfast in the town. The lagoon was one of the raddest places we have checked out thus far! We have an overall gameplan, ie we head south and look for projects to be part of, schools to share with andngreat spots to relax and practice our yoga and kung fu.
Our timeline is open ended, BUT, if we are in a place where we are unable to do any good works for others, we will only spend a few days. The main purpose is to help while seeing the world from a bike! An adventure of epic proportion before we die, after this is over, in roughly 15 years, we will settle down somewhere where we can grow food, be left along, do some surfing and live out our years in peace and quiet:)
The overall route is from Pennsylvania, where I started in August 2010, to San Fran, and then south all the way to South America, catch a boat to Africa, go north, boat from morocco to portugal, through europe, mid east asia, australia and finally back to Hawaii where I first got the idea. Thats as big a plan as we have,mno specifics, of course there arebplaces we would like to see, macchu picchu, pyramids, karnak, etc. but those are more potential waypoints, we just want to have a helpful adventure of epic proportion:)
Aloha and thanks again for the kind words!

Ive hadnsommany run ins with losers and thiefs, what can we do:). As a guy told me a while ago, its all a wash in the end. If they are going to try and take my life, Ill put some serious focus on it, beyond that, butterflies and pinwheels in the breeze, ive lost more in my life than many will ever hope to see, far as im concerned, im waaaaaaaay ahead of the curve, everything at this point is icing on the cake till I die:)

Spelling is important when seeking data.
The town is Guerrero Negro (Black Warrior).
It might be the most misspelled place in Baja.

You were asking what happened so I thought you might have tried searching so since the town was misspelled, I thought it may be a reason your searches didn't turn up anything. They actually last posted here on Nomad on 10-10-2012 from Ensenada: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=63074 and suggested we go to their Facebook page to follow them further. I did and asked if they would come back here and do a wrap up (for those who don't 'Facebook').
