Suggestions for new Nomad?


Good Morning Nomads,
I have met a few of you. Despite those experiences, I'm still joining as a newbie member of B.N..

Any suggestion for my travels from Ocean Beach down through the TJ, Rosarito, Ensenada area appreciated. Also, any suggestions on how to add posts to get my avatar ON appreciated?

Welcome aboard, Oba..........

In our travels over the last year, we always cross at Otay and take Blvd 2000 to Popotla. from there, you can take either the free road or the tollroad north to Rosarito/TJ or south to Pureto Nuevo/ Ensenada.

No problems, although we always drive during daylight hours.

I think you have to achieve junior nomad status before the avatar can be turned "on." Keep posting, and welcome.

Despite those experiences? What happened, they weren't your kind of people?

WELCOME to BajaNomad,I agree on taking Blv 2000,but don't recommend it at night, specially right now with all the problems in town,not only that but the signing(traffic signs) are not yet finish.



PS.remember that all Nomads are the same we are all different,thats the beauty of this Board,we don't have to agree with every body.But it would be nice if we could.

Hi obafla....Welcome to BajaNomad

OK...We want to know who you met and what happened. Don't worry if it's embarrasing for you, that's part of the rite of passage here. We're all very embarrasing people. Help us out here, objolxgfa. You show me yours and I'll show you mine.

Dennis,

Check your u2u.

"You show me yours and I'll show you mine." I think they were talking about hot tamales, not pretty chilis!

Welcome obafla !

CaboRon

When you cross don't stop until you reach Baja Cactus in El Rosario.... make that your first night... then drive the second day to Ignacio Springs Bed and Breakfast..... spend two nights there to recharge and relax before heading on .....

Don't drive at night .....and be sure to stop in at Todos Santos .

Tough crowd here.( boy/girl ). But don't let that scare you.
Deep down we're shallow.:biggrin:
BTW, that name anything to do with our new pretend leader ?
Obaflo being the male supporter and Obafla his female counterpart.:biggrin:
Or maybe just my imagination running amok.:P:P

No way, Ed......You have a great way of keeping up with your imagination.
Or, is it the other way around?

OK, I'm attempting to be slightly anonymous, though my location might give you a clue. Corona would only work if I'm near death.

Thanks for all of the support, information and other items.

I was attempting humor about my experiences meeting other nomads recently. That failed, just like others' attempted humor here. Is this where old standup comics go to die?
