2014:
For Julie's birthday, we headed down the Baja peninsula of Mexico with no agenda only a sense of adventure. We knew we wanted to head south, and what better place to knock some of the rust off of our Spanish skills than Mexico. I recently acquired the Toyota pickup truck and it made for great transportation and camping. Everybody we met was friendly and inviting, and surprised to see 2 gringas cruising alone. I feel that once you pass Tijuana, or most of the border towns, Mexico is a fairly safe and inviting place. It was nice to munch down on Mexican food all the time, and have cheap accessibility to all those yummy Mexican snacks. The trip was a great success.
