Iris photographs Baja Grande
Iris did a great job assembling photos on her Facebook page. Here are some highlights from her digital camera.

Iris & 2/3rds of the group camped at the Rancho Grande section of Gonzaga Bay due to the beach being less rocky and better for fishing.

What fun Iris and ken! Thanks for sharing this great trip with us. I particularly enjoyed the pic of Iris with the islands going off into the horizon.
Great shot.

The plane crash landed in Puerto San Francisquito because it was losing altitude and had to find someplace to land right away. $6 Million USD worth
of plane sits, waiting for repairs....
