On Saturday we reached our destination. The very southern most end of the Baja. The city of CAbo San Lucas has changed a little since I was last there. Of course the rocks always remain the same and that is what we went to see.
It's a long ride from Victoria but when the sun is shining and the company is good, the road seems much shorter than it is.
For those of you who have been camping at Los Cerritos, this is what it looks like now and there is only one small place left where you can pitch a tent or park a trailer. This is one of the new resorts that has been built where we used to pitch a tent. $500,000 to buy a suite and $500 a night to rent.
Ahhh....two days at Tecolote just east of La Paz. A most beautiful beach. We pitched our tents and walked on sand like baby powder. We met up with Gerrit and Liz, long time Baja friends. Also made a few new friends. In the morning we made a great cup of coffee.......
After coffee our stomachs were begging for the nice food we had bought. We looked in the corner of the tent where we had stored our food and the buns were gone. There was a hole in the tent. The waves and the wind had covered the noise of the tent tearing. The wild dogs had ripped a hole and stolen not only the buns but the bag of peanuts and dried peaches as well. "At least we have the tortillas and cheese for breakfast" Mike said as he rummaged around some more. Suddenly I heard some very untypical yelling and I saw Mike running into the desert with his hands in the air shouting, "Those fucking dogs stole the cheese too! I'm gonna kill them!" It took quite awhile to settle him down and accept the fact that all we had for breakfast that day, so far from town, was a can of beans and salsa.......
Some kind neighbours asked us over for a fish supper. These are our new friends from Alberta
This is Liz Gerrit and Mike.
And so we carry on after two windy nights in Tecolote. I will write again sometime after lore to or Mulege. I can only post photos when the internet is really strong and that is hard to find.
