A few photos from a recent trip


Here's a couple of Pangeros we spent 2 days on the water with.

Able from Mulege




Pepe from Bahia de Los Angeles




Here's a Pelicano hoping he would get some bait we didn't want.................he eventually did. Sunrise at LA Bay





By the way we didn't get on fish in Mulege it was very choppy and we couldn't get out far enough.

La Bay we got into Yellowtail and Cabrillo!

Real nice photos, Ken. Makes me wish I'd been there to stare back into that pelican's eyes. Good to know you're enjoying your summer... and thanks for sharing.

Thanks all for the comments.

rountuit..he is not a gringo believe me. can't confirm onsite location other than we were only 5 min east of Diaz ramp.

Nena..it was a great 6 day trip with my son-in-law who has never been to Baja. He has been in Korea for a year, so the trip was a welcome change for him. The weather wasn't as hot as I expected it to be. Some say the cooler water is the reason. Air conditioning in our room at night was welcome. The one day fishing in Mulege that didn't yield any fish but was rich with wildlife..............2 large schools of porpoise, 2 turtles, flying fish, malin tailing around out boat, jumping Manta Rays, and a large Marlin jumping out of the water.

One downside was a fatal accident we came upon just south of Jesus Maria. A group of 20+ deaf motorcyclists from all over the states were on a tour of Mexico. One bike with two riders hit a cow in broad daylight on a straight road, we heard one died the other I don't know. As a motorcylist, and one who rides in Baja it was sobering to say the least.

Natalie, Here's a photo I took last year that might help satisfy your eyeball staring urge.

Thanks, Ken, for telling me more about that trip. All the wildlife of the sea... makings of a wonderful day on the water, even with no fish. What a treat for your son-in-law and for you!

And Cardon... quality pelican stare there.
Thank you for that photo... put me right back in Bahia Gonzaga sitting on the sand very very still with all the water fowl walking closely by.

You guys are just too nice to me. It's like I'm breathing Baja today. :yes::spingrin::tumble::spingrin:

We also came across that same accident---just awful. We heard that the woman was seriously injured and was in the hospital, but that was the day of the accident. Don't know if she made it. Don't know what speed was involved, but the motorcycle was in many pieces. As you say, it was sobering, to say the least.

As usual, love your photos----thanks for sharing them.
