fernweh Date registered: Apr 2006 Location: Calabasas, CA - Centenario, BCS - Luebeck, Germany Vehicle(s): Few Mercedes-Benz, a Toyota Amphibious and a Vespa ![]() | RE: Greetings from Hwy 1 Baja California Yeah, it was a tough few days...... we lost one of us almost to Strychnine, a deadly poison, but River did manage to pull through......just added another +900KM to the trip to pick her up at the wonderful vet in Mulege. The crew got a bit smaller, as Patricia, Susan and Rick had to fly back to the US today. So the rest of us has to share the never ending supply of Pacifico, Camerones, Pescadores and Taco-Food ![]() Pictures are plentiful, but we have to track back to La Paz before nightfall, so only a few right now........hang in there (IMG_1069.JPG) (IMG_1027.JPG) (IMG_1042.JPG) (IMG_0982.JPG) (IMG_1045.JPG) Attachments ---------------- ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Harald found an amazing camping spot (as usual), and we all enjoyed 3 unforgettable days on the beach, miles from anyone. Below are some more photos of our Baja trip:
The vet who saved River.
Vultures
Beautiful Baja beach lunch stop.

4x4abc Date registered: Apr 2006 Location: La Paz, Baja California, Mexico Vehicle(s): 02 G500 ![]() | Re: Greetings from Hwy 1 Baja California sippy cup is cleaned and dried but I figured today, by the time Abigail is coming back to La Paz, she might not want that thing any longer I could donate it to a volunteer animal clinic where women with no life (aka mid life crisis) could nurse an infant squirrel back to life that has fallen of a tree (more likely cactus here), they would then blog about the donation from NM and you could become famous shall I donate it? Mexicali - admission into "paradise" is always time consuming, but you are greeted with smiles, inspiring music and cheers by the gate keepers no, that does not sound right I must have mixed up the paradises pictures please! did you do the enchanted valley? Alfonsinas? Coco? come on - we are itching for news | ||
