Looking forward to the photos at the Cabo finish line and Loreto party!

These are the very same maps posted in the thread... I just thought some would enjoy seeing the entire route with camp sites used by Mike, in one place, now that the journey is over.

Loreto get together at Del Borracho Saloon..



Bajacalifornian (Jeff) and Mike had some great stories about getting into and out of Cabo..


Jeff and Sonia were a big part of helping Mike and "gang " back to Loreto..


Mike looks good for getting "taken on a walk" by DonKay for the last 6 months.. Says he lost 43lbs on the trip..


DonKay is resting over on Bajacalifornian's lot right next to the beach..

Congrats Mike...


Hey bud... so you finnally did it!Boy I can still remember when you first told me about your trip and looking for your partner to take with you(Don-kay). Of all the time you spent going over the route and bonding with Don-kay, it was not in vain, and i send you a well deserved CONGRATULATIONS. I wish I could have been there at the end, but i can say that it has been fun reading the updates once I found this site. And thanks David K. for the help and I think that the completed map(route) was a nice touch for the end. It really puts the trip into perspective on how "un-easy" it really is to undertake a trip like the one Mike just finnished. Mike, I'll be looking for you back in San Diego sometime in the near future and have a safe trip back. Randy

Yes, thanks DK for all the work you put in on this. You made it a very enjoyable read. Also thanks to all the Nomads for their encouragement and comments over the several months of this journey. It has really been a worth while read. Salute

It was my pleasure to have a tiny part of this adventure... I am looking forward to meeting Mike once he is back in El Cajon and settled... Perhaps we can have a get-together with Graham and Bonni along... the original inspiration!:light:

Have a safe trip back north Mike... and congrats on the Baja weight loss program... FIVE (million) EASY STEPS to weight loss!
