Wonderful report Ateo!

I hope Doug doesn't delete it as it strays a bit beyond the PG-13 level he has set! ;)

That is a sweet photo of the book with the mission behind it...

Thank you for taking us along... I miss Baja!

PS Dennis, I think 'Lobo del Mar' is also the sea lion, which is mostly what is there, (I think)?

Well...thank you, David. Your correction alone tells me you know what I was saying.
Maybe you can clear up why a Lion of any type is called a Wolf...Lobo.
Inquiring minds etc etc etc.

Bonus Material:

My wife, who claims to be a fireworks expert, launched a bottle rocket into the wind and it immediately went off course, landing in my son's hair. He yelled "hit the deck!!" as it approached but it still nailed him. It was a scary moment to say the least but I think it taught a few people to be more careful. Fortunately it wasn't a bottle rocket that explodes as well......just one of those that launches.

Yeah, we hauled it all in and ended up leaving 5 pieces for someone to find! Packed it in first then covered it all with camp gear. I know a guy who gives great deals on wood in Oceanside. U2U me if you want the details.

I am asking, not correcting (note I put a ? there)... Are they seals or sea lions at La Lobera? I wrote about the place, and had been told it was a 'sea lion' crater.

As for Lobo del Mar... Wolf of the Sea... I think that is as good a name as the English 'Sea Lion'... I mean is it more Canine or Feline ?

Thank you for finding them interesting and asking more!

The book has the locations, but not GPS'ed. For satellite images of all the mission sites with GPS go to my missions pages that begin at http://vivabaja.com/bajamissions (this was made long before the book).

The page with the excat mission locations, north to south is http://vivabaja.com/missions4

I have not been to all the missions in Baja, but my co-author has been to them all. If you want some more help, directions, or more mission questions answered, I will try to answer them for you. I suggest you visit the books Facebook page for more photos, too... http://facebook.com/oldmissions

Thank you!

Excellent report. Nice pic effects. That restaurant looks so "garden like". Glad you got to visit Woody's sister. Any big surf? It was epic here.

Welcome aboard HelloMrSoul! What is your area of technical expertise? Lots of treadheads here on Bajanomads.

Fell free to add some epic Baja pics from your travels.

Cheers, Curt
