Around 8:00??? Darling, it will be long over by then. I think you mean 5:00. You're out of school at 4:00 and it does not take 4 hours to get here! And yes, bring your roomie.

Well, we had a nice turnout sans some of you that said you'd be here (READ richnlinda who live a stones throw from us)....
pictures will follow tomorrow from bajamigo. thanks to everyone who came and brought things although the instructions were BRING NOTHING. Great to meet those of you we haven't met before and great to see again those we see regularly but in yet a different setting!

For those of you that missed it, you truly did miss out on a great international cultural experience!

Hasta!

Happy Hours with Nomads are Wonderful Things


BajaSedoso's idea to have a Nomad happy hour turned out to be a great one. We missed seeing a lot of nearby Nomads, but here are a few fotos of the die-hards who trekked to Punta Banda, to the home of BajaBound2005 and Bajamigo.

Sirenita, BB2005, Doc, BajaSedoso and Dorbaja



Dorbaja and Jovanka (Fishbuck's main squeeze)



Natalie (Sirenita's friend) make sure only Coke passes her lips



Fishbuck with Natalie and Sirenita



Dorbaja and Fishbuck and Jovanka



Big Mike



Doc and all the pretty girls (BB2005 was watching him, Shari)



BajaSedoso wonders why she started this



Jovanka had a great time



Doc and Bajamigo



Bajamigo mans the bar



BajaSedoso gets in the spirit



Among the last to leave



This was really a fun experience. Wish more of you could have made it. Next time!

Just great to see... Thanks for the photos!

What is so wonderful about the Internet... we get to meet (or at least see) the great Baja people who add so much here!

Thanks again...

Now, it's off to Baja for us, in a few hours... Be back in 4-5 days!

Sirenita made out like a bandit! Fishbuck brought her a bed frame, BajaSedoso brought her a computer table, and we gave her some area rugs. These things, along with all the great stuff AwfulArt gave her, are making her little house a home!

Fun event and opportunity to meet more nomads. BB05 and BA are fine hosts. Many of the local restaurants could visit and learn.

For those of you that missed it, you truly did miss out on a great international cultural experience!So sorry, said we would try to make it. Have not felt good for a couple of days and felt even worse last night, and just now got up and on the internet today to see how your party went, I was pretty sure we would not make or brake it. Glad everyone had a good time and thanks for the pics :)

Hasta!

Well, BajaSedosa, now you know you ALWAYS have a place to stay! With some notice you might just end up as a dog sitter for a weekend though most times we do try to take the critters with us. They love to travel and check out new places!

It was great to meet you and we're so curious to learn about today's "cooking class" that you signed up for!

Very truly, nuestra casa es tu casa! That applies to all Nomads!

That was one fun party! Thank you to BB2005 and Bajamigo for the invitation and throwing such a nice party.
All the Nomads and other guests were very nice and very interesting to talk to. That was great entertainment for sure.
Special thanks to Dorbaja for acting as "interpreter" for Jovanka and me. That was a big help as we are still learning each others language, in more ways than one.
Jovanka had a great time and really liked everyone.
Hope to see you all again.

PS. I left the party a little early and drove to San Quintin to fish the next day.
I caught a 20lb Dorado and an 6lb Calico bass. Both the biggest of each species for me. It was great!

PSS. I was disappointed the DENNIS wasn't there also.

I am bumping this back to the top. Yes, it was that much fun!

Anybody got any parties/events planned for the future?

Dogs AND Baja? Two of my favorite things, I am game.
The cooking class was great, we made ceviche, fish taco's (baja style), salsa verde and chilaquiles - yummmmm. Edith was great and she remembered the two of you fondly.
I am working on a trip report with pictures.
