Back from 4 great Baja Days! (7-20-10)
We wanted a special, quiet weekend for our 2nd wedding anniversary... and Baja fit the bill!
Shell Island, then south to Gonzaga Bay, Coco's Corner, Cataviņa, El Rosario (for a wonderful Baja Cactus night that included his & her massages),
and home via Tecate today.
I will do a detailed trip report, naturally... including the new highway south of Puertecitos and the many miles of dirt detour south of Tecate... See
the Baja Trip Reports forum in a couple of days...
It was great meeting two traveling Nomad families in El Rosario, too!
Here are a couple of photos, as a teaser (I took over 150)!
Good night amigos...

Great meeting you as well. Sorry we didn't get a chance to talk longer, but I always hate to inturupt a good Mamma Espinosa's meal. Hope to see you
again soon.

Elizabeth really loved Loreto when she first saw it, last July 2009...

I think I will post the road log from Puertecitos to Laguna Chapala in the Baja Road Conditions forum, maybe in the forthcoming trip report, too?
I can do the road log right now... the trip report with many photos in a day or two...
Here is the road log with photos: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=46842

Almost like being there....
GREAT report, David! You are a wealth of information and your love of Baja is inspiring. This forum is, indeed, fortunate to have you on board.
US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.
What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

It was a great big pleasure to meet you and your super Baja Family! I wish we did have more time to chat... Please feel free to post, email or u2u any
map/history/Baja questions!
If you guys pass through Oceanside, perhaps a visit...
Your kids are beautiful... they are a treasure!
Have a great trip!!
