Dont get stranded out there in the middle of the desert.....otherwise you be seeing this guy waving at you on the third day without water :-)
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I'm guessing it'll be down somewhere around Guerrero Negro. When you see Marlon Brando and his minions all bearing down on you, try not to panic.
<g>
If it's on that day we can't buy booze, we may be pretty grumpy.
Oh yeah.. if the resorts can sell on election day but maybe Malarrimo can't, is there such a "resort" in Guerrero Negro?

Some people seem to feel safer traveling in numbers.. with fellow countrymen... at least for the first trip into a strange land. Others may just like
to have a guide to show them places they don't know about... Again, the next trip, they may come alone.

If this is the caravan seen by my wife on the road recently, Nicely done! Not all packed together. Room to pass between.

David: Of course not!!Nobody here is scared. It's the social situation they enjoy. Last nite we had Spaghetti, Caesar salad, Chicken Marsala, and
Italian music on the beach with a fab sunset - followed by Dave's fireworks display. What a social group we got!!!
Captkw: You would be very hard pressed to find anyone who knows more about Baja, top to bottom, than me, except maybe John Smith from Baja Winters
Caravans. Our groups constantly hear single travellers saying, "Where was that exciting place you went? I missed it."
Don't knock ANYTHING if you haven't tried it!

Hope you are all having a good time. Aren't you glad you don't
have a "23 ft c class towing a boat" in your group throwing a damper on all the fun?
I think the world is run by C- students.

I was answering Captkw in general terms as to why SOME people like to travel in groups... wasn't specific about your business.
I wish more would like to go to Baja that way... then I could have a job, as I love showing Baja off... and have led daily group trips in the past...
