MANFRED THE GERMAN ON HIS WAY SOUTH


Hi All, there is a neat German man named Manfred who is on his way south ... he is traveling the world for as long as it takes him, and this is his Baja strectch. He hung out with us for 3 days and now is headed to Abreojos. then San Ignacio and Santa Rosalia and Mulege and on and on and on -

He has a Mercedes van which is all set up like a camper van. VERY COOL. He has stories to tell from every country he has been to .... if you see him ....tell him we send a hello and give him a meal !!

Is that the same Manfred that owned the RV park in Constitucion?

Mike (and Robin) - I just spent the better part of 2 hours reading up on your travels all over the place ! Very interesting stories !

Yes, I think Manfred is really getting around !!

If you have more information on the mainland, please put it into writing - we are heading there next month, I am eager to get inside information on who. what, where, when and how :light:

oh my goshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh too funny

my husband Les is on the right and

MANFRED IS ON THE LEFT, in red..... this was taken on our front porch.

and no, Tony, Manfred retired and is traveling the world - speaks NO Spanish - never owned any RV park. He was an architect by profession.
