Yah, after I posted the photos above, I went back and edited in the word 'Bahia' as I figured Skeet and you were speaking of the island in Baja Sur (seeing how he hates Baja Norte.. just kidding Skeeter)!

You got one correct amigo...I guess I earned that Baja Sur position! Yah, unfair because your life is on the Sea of Cortez and mine is in the desert more! You got the one photo correct on the sea shore!

A) San Ignacio
B) San Javier
C) Loreto
D) Buenaventura, on Bahia Concepcion
E) Magdalena ruins northwest of Mulege.

All the photos from last year, web page: http://vivabaja.com/709 and trip report on Nomad.

Great Job.

I have a photo of the side of the Mission at San Javier that shows a very large Honeycomb that dripped for years.

Before the new road opened to San Javier it was an exciting trip on the old road.

Can't remember the name of the hotel though.

How long have you been going to baja, and you didn't pick up on it?? speaks volumes.
A close-up photo was posted of severe obesity.
Flour tortillas are way more fattenning than corn.
(If I'd just had a grandkid ... I would want to stick around out of respect for said grandkid ... not kill myself by selfish choices.)
Maybe it's best you stick to listening to Olstein (sp) so as you don't have to think for yourself. just sayin'

(take 40 minutes of your time (the first 40 minutes of this film which you can watch free online. I DARE you))
you're welcome

:lol::lol:..........Huh



Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.

I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.

Disarroyo

Could you get someone who knows English to explain just what you are trying to say?

I don.t think anyone can understand what you are Speaking.

Ken, you are so right.!!!

I have never experienced as much different Sea life as that in one place.

I still get goose bumps thinking about my first trip there catching a Bunch of 20 lb yellow fin.

The good old days!

las animas


Here's a picture of Las Animas in the background about 6 miles outside an anchorage on the NE side of Isla San Jose. I've spent many nights there to be at LA at first light the next morning......
