3/18/14 Last Day in the Baja

Well today is our last day in the Baja will be crossing the border about 10 this morning. We have had an incredible time, met incredible people, saw incredible places, did incredible things that we will remember forever. Need to starting planning for our next adventure here. 
So I wonder if when we get in the states driving down the highways with lost of cars (here on the highways it was 1 every 10 minutes) if we will put on our flashers to notify oncoming traffic there is a cow, goat, donkey or other hazard in the road or turn on our left turn signal to let the car behind you know that it is ok to pass? We shall see.
We will be in Yuma tonight staying with Wes &Toni then on to Ed & Kathys, then moving to Phoenix for a few days with Jon & Karen and whoever else is around. Then up to Lake Havasu to visit with Lee & Ruth if they aren't to busy watching the spring breakers!! Then off to Death Valley where we will met up with Nick & Karen for a few days then...........home

Hugs to all
Jon, Cindy, Mr Monkey and. Chapito

San Felipe


San Felipe. I love this place!!!


We met Clay & Beth and Bob & Connie in Guerro Negro, met again in LA Bay and Gonzaga Bay.
Jon caught lots of fish and they invited us to dinner at their place (well maybe we invited ourselves)  in San Felipe. What great friends thanks so much for the invite. It is such a small world Bob and I went to school together and friends boated to Hat Island.





Marina in San Felipeq









A great RV Park and Hotel - Kiki's we stayed at the hotel a great spot.

You pull your RV or tent up to the 2 story palapa table and BBQ below and Sea of Cortez view above


The sunset was incredible



Gonzaga Bay

Bahia San Luis Gonzaga.
Popular with private pilots and experienced Baja adventurers. There are a few homes each with a private plane.

Flowering cactus 










The mountains are just spectacular!! 
Right after I took this picture I moved my foot and a cactus chunk rolled into my foot and I couldn't move. The needles where about 4 inches long and fat and 6 of them stuck in my foot about  1/4 inch. Jon pulled them out and also got some pokes. Sure glad they didn't have barbs on them.


The road to Cocos Corner. It was a slow road, stutter bumps, big rocks, ca yo s and cliffs. It took about 1 1/2 hrs to go 17 miles



Now that's a big pair of of undies
