Rainbow Gathering 11/1 to 30/2008 La Paz Location?
Hi,
Does anyone know where the Rainbow Family Gathering is to be held near La Paz? They talk of a 4000 acre site around La Paz. Any guess at the
number of people attending?
thanks

Links are below. It is implied it will be in the same place as the previous Global Rainbow Gathering in La Paz which was held just North of La Paz on
the San Juan de la Costa coast line on the Sea of Cotez toward Punta Coyote beach, outside of La Paz you leave the transpeninsular highway and head
up on the dirt road to San Juan de Costa-I believe there is the Pemex on the edge of Centenario near this turn off.
Leaving from La Paz it took me 20-30 minutes or so to get to the turn off, the info says there will be a camp station at the last part of the road
which is still cement to welcome people as they head out on the gravel, dirt and sand road. It took me a few hours to get there on the road becuase we
were slowed down by all the cars of hippys getting stuck in the sand every 20 meters.
There was also a Marines Military Checkpoint where they just said hello to the hippys.
Here are links to info:

At the last one, as we drove out in a cherokee we found many people stuck in the sand and we helped dig them out and continue in a hippy leapfrog
style, until our group was about 20 cars long most of whom should not have been driving out there in little low cars etc... But everyone helped the
group further their progress. We arrived at the camp and there were many naked people and lots of friends. A whale came to visit and we shared ideas,
peace and love. At that event I would estimate there were about 100 there on the day I arrived.
There are many people talking about the event all over the place and I imagine they will try to go, so maybe a few more people... It is remote and
not intended to be organized, its' focalized!
If its inappropriate for me to post clear directions pm me and I'll delete.

Shari,
Forget the tie dye, it doesn't sound like you'll need it.

probably a bunch of nit wits anyway. not my demographic.
saw enough of that behavior in college to last a lifetime.
too much "free"...... love, dope, social services...
i hope they can save the world. but in the end who's going to pay for the "rainbow" they seek.
someone has to.
there is no free lunch. unless it comes from Barack's liberal tax and spend policies.

peace out!

The Rainbow family/crowd are a colorful bunch of folks.:biggrin lenty of tatoos,
and all sorts of body piercings. Some good didgeridoo sounds, no bras, lot's of dreads, etc. Soap, might need some? Guess they're just keeping the
"Hippie" tradition alive and well.

Peace, love and charity and the greatest of these is charity. I would love to be there. Not enough good vibes left in the world. Time to have
joyous gathering to think about the possibilities and not negativity. I'll go with you Shari.

are you saying? the sentence structure makes no sense.
actually i'd rather go to burning man. i can fly right to the event and land on the grounds. BBP does a trip there each year.
