Probably San Ysidro or Tecate and toll road to Hghy 5.

Mexicali to San Felipe is 120 miles so it takes a while.

5 hours or less from your house to San Felipe, Jose... 250 miles.

Go to Tecate, then east on 2 out of town and onto 2-D... After Laguna Salada and before Mexicali, take the toll shortcut to Hwy. 5... MUY MUY RAPIDO!

BajaRob, are you monitoring this thread? Can you post daily weather observations from Bahia Santa Maria for interest and to keep the thread bumped up?

I sure hope you guys all have a great time... There's nothing better than four wheeling with amigos in Baja!

You can't beat the fish filet with garlic sauce at Rositas but the mixer in the Margaritas taste like gasoline!

Hi Rob,

Hope you guys had fun in Cabo! Did you drive down past Gonzaga Bay on the newest pavement? Was there still lots of "bang bang bang" (fist slapping open palm of other hand)?

We did it the easy way on the Carnival Spirit and rented a Jeep in Cabo. We spent some quality time with Mike at Lattitude 22 and at Buzzards in Laguna Hills.
