But you are forgetting the most important part wich is it is the Baja Nomad Dia de Reyes toy drive, so it would be Los Santos Nomadas

You know, in the early days of Baja Internet (Amigos de Baja, bajanet.com) I thought Ferna was female, not learning it was short for Fernando until
later! We met in 2000.
Santo Ferna or Santa Ferna is good, right? I mean Santa Claus is a man, right?

OK. I must be really stupid. What is the purpose of all the laughing faces? This is SERIOUS stuff; and we had a lot of rain today. We've no idea
what we'll encounter when we head into "town" tomorrow...

Laughing is the best thing to take your mind off the stress of the "what if's" Trust me we have all had them this last week.
We are very aware of the weather and I have no doubt that everything will be ok, including whats left for these families.
I wish we could do more. Somehow, a gift and a meal just doesnt seem enough, but it will help with one day. I hope it will be a memorable one for
them.
We can all take back with us, a hope. One that reminds us that mankind isnt all bad and some people really do care about a fellow human being.
Although we cant do a whole lot, we did think to do something for someone else.
Thank you guys for all the support, gift and donations. YOU, the NOMADS did this. Fernando just had an idea.
Without you it would have been just another good idea
floating around in someones head.

 Dia De Reyes. Remembering the day when the Three Wise Men following the star to Bethlehem, arrived bearing their treasured gifts
of gold, frankincense and myrrh for the Baby Jesus.
 Ay, ay, ay, ay, Feliz Dia De Reyes
Feliz Dia de Reyes to all the wonderful people who gave from their heart and also to those who couldn’t but were there in spirit. And to all the
behind the scenes people who travel to and fro picking up the gifts, delivering them, cataloging them, wrapping them. To those who stay up late nights
fretting if it will come off or not. To those who do anything to bring this day forward you deserve a round of applause for your hard and dedicated
work. | Quote: | Originally posted by fdt
For those in Ensenada preparing all of this, gathering children, preparing the gathering place and meal and organizing everything on that end. |
May this day, “Dia De Reyes,” bring lots of smiles and sunshine to the children who through your generosity and caring make this day possible!

Unfortunately we were not able to stay in town for the gathering. We asked Dennis to pass on our hellos to those able to attend. We left Punta Banda
this morning at 6am under rain and cloudy skies, and are finally home and online again at almost midnight. Flash flood warnings here.
I hope that the event went well and will await a report.

All started on january 6 ,about 8:30am.A number of Nomads meet up in the lloyds Bldg,across the Border.The mission was simple,to deliver toys that we
