How about here?


This is kind of fun! I have been to this site, it should be easy to guess.

Keep it going, you guys!
Look for the lost mission of Santa Isabel, while you are at it!
We were shown a possible site for it in 2011, so a bunch of us Nomads went on a search. It was great fun and Baja Lou's final Baja adventure. http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=52696

Here is what got us going: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=51399

Does anyone know the back story on this place? Went by the other day, it has cinder block dwellings and a court yard along with the metal skeleton of a warehouse. Who were the investors? If heard Japanese and also French. Haven't been able to find anything on the googles about it.




I like beer, better than most people.
