Let's not get worried, yet.


Here are a few pictures of Amir. I'm going to keep posted with Tal, because Amir traveled alone, and wanted to drive south of LA Bay - alone, without any plans nor way of communicating with anyone. Amir needs a Satellite phone for Hannukah, everyone. :light:

Bump

I hope he checks-in soon.

Four days is really not that long to be off the grid - time flies in Baja. He is probably having a great time; but, unable to find anywhere to connect to the internet. Imagine he found the perfect fish camp, about a 6 hour drive from the nearest computer. Sounds like heaven.

I used to travel for weeks in remote areas and was unable to check in more than a few times a month. Did he say he would check in weekly or every few days?

When was he supposed to be home/back? Did he mention anyplace he may be headed or someone that he talked to/visited in Bahia de los Angles? Maybe someone knows something at the place he stayed.

Thanks Ken for the photos. Those should help greatly.

Looks like the guy knows how to enjoy the great outdoors! Maybe he's just lost track of time. I wish I could.

Ken gives good T-shirt, but I don't have a "man-crush" on
him:lol::lol:

It is good to hear that Amir was merely vacationing off the grid...

Now there is a horrible crime that will negatively impact Baja tourism! ! A man can't even slip away for a few days to commune with nature in Baja without some good-intentioned person calling a cyber-amber alert. Technology has just gone too far. Great fishing, boat, and yaking photos.

I'll bet he was happier before you told him a couple hundered geezers are searching baja for him from their porches.

:biggrin:

The REAL Amir is... as I type... out under our palapa talking fishing with Juan...he's a really sweet guy who definately has the baja bug! thanks to the nomads most wanted list, I knew him the moment I laid eyes on him! He has lots of great stories and is a most interesting fellow. He will most likely be heading north...well...ummm.....soon.
