  9. To the tip of the Southern below

    Blog: Joe's Trippin' - 23 March 2010

    While I am hardly a card carrying fan of border crossings, I am never really concerned about them. Until recently. You see, my recent crossing from San Diego into Mexican territory had me somewhat on edge.

  10. La Paz, Mexico is a Water Wonderland

    Blog: Hole In The Donut - 20 March 2010

    When my ferry arrived in La Paz, Mexico a couple of weeks ago, I had only an hour or so to check out the town before boarding the bus that would take me across Baja California to Todos Santos. I walked along the Malecon and snapped a few photos; it seemed like a nice enough [...]

  11. La Fonda de los Briseno – Best Mexican Restaurant in La Paz

    Blog: Hole In The Donut - 16 March 2010

    Like everyone, I appreciate a good restaurant. But perhaps because I used to be severely overweight, food is not overwhelmingly important to me when I travel. I generally eat only one meal a day, and most of the time I am happy enough with something from street vendors, who usually offer selections more appropriate for [...]

  12. A Mexican Bingo Remembrance of My Mother

    Blog: Hole In The Donut - 15 March 2010

    My mother would have loved this. Every year, when I’d visit for Christmas, Mom would drag me to Bingo at the local smoke-filled hall. Gleefully she’d buy a passel of bingo cards and press a packet upon me. I’d tape my eight or ten cards to the carved and chipped wooden table while she spread [...]

  13. Going With the Flow, On to La Paz, Mexico

    Blog: Hole In The Donut - 13 March 2010

    So much for my schedule. I knew it was going to be a fluid trip, I just didn’t know how fluid. First I killed time in Cabo San Lucas waiting for a casita to become available at the new Rancho Pescadero Resort near Todos Santos, Mexico in order to spend a few more days in [...]

  14. For a Good Time Call 555-Cabo San Lucas

    Blog: Hole In The Donut - 11 March 2010

    It’s a high school girl’s worst nightmare, discovering that her phone number has been scrawled on the boy’s room wall. Those five words: “for a good time call….” speak shameful volumes about a girl who has given in to temptation, in search of elusive popularity, love, excitement. Not so long ago, virginal Cabo San Lucas was [...]

  15. Ferrying Across the Sea of Cortez Between Mazatlan and La Paz in Baja California

    Blog: Hole In The Donut - 9 March 2010

    One of the things I promised myself when I embarked upon this trek around Mexico, Central and South America was NO planes, unless absolutely necessary. Back in the days when it didn’t take three hours to get checked in and through security, back when the airlines actually cared about their passengers, flying was a lot [...]

  16. The ferry from Baja California to Sinaloa, Mexico

    Blog: Lost World Expedition - 24 December 2009

    With slight fear of being berated, I (Luis) must say I am not a big fan of ferries… there I said it.  Most people seem to lay back and enjoy the ride, but I am usually seasick and fairly immobile throughout the ride. In order to leave Baja California and continue our trip through Mexico [...]

    We are having some technical difficulties with this post, here it is but it will be a little more “polished” when we get to a fast and cheap internet source in a few days… Thank you. From La Paz we headed south to Todos Santos, which we had heard is a neat little town on [...]

  18. Bahia Concepcion en route to La Paz

    Blog: Lost World Expedition - 15 December 2009

    The Bahia Concepcion is touted as having one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline on the Baja peninsula and this was part of the reason we wanted to get to Mulegé so bad. We stocked up on supplies in Mulegé and drove south in search of a good beach camping spot. We weren’t disappointed with the [...]

  19. Recipe: Machaca Burritos

    Blog: Lost World Expedition - 13 December 2009

    We love food (maybe Luis more than Lacey) and a great deal of this little experiment in travels is for us to experience the regional foods of all the places we visit.  We make it a point to eat what the locals eat. We will, on occasion post recipes for any who want to try, [...]

  20. You Don’t Know if You Don’t Go… Scorpion Bay to Mulegé

    Blog: Lost World Expedition - 10 December 2009

    When the sad time came to move on from San Juanico, we were evaluating which route we wanted to take out of town. There are a few different ways in and out of the area, with only one being easy (easy meaning: only a small amount of washboard). The only problem with this “easy” route [...]

  21. San Juanico- Getting There is Part of the Adventure

    Blog: Lost World Expedition - 5 December 2009

    We had heard about San Juanico- or some call it Scorpion Bay- from surfer friends back home. We were also ready for some Pacific coast beaches, so we decided to head that way.  There is a small dirt road that goes into San Juanico from San Ignacio, via the Laguna San Ignacio, so we asked [...]

  22. On to San Ignacio, Baja California Sur

    Blog: Lost World Expedition - 4 December 2009

    The wind was blowing so bad in San Francisquito, we decided to head out after one night. The plan was driving a dirt road out towards a place called El Arco, but there are many tracks going off the “main” dirt road, with no signs indicating which one was the road we wanted. In San [...]

  23. Ensenada and the Baja 1000

    Blog: Lost World Expedition - 25 November 2009

    After an uneventful border crossing we visited our friends at BajaRack in Ensenada.  A few months ago we attended an event dedicated to like minded vehicle based travelers called Overland Expo.  At the Expo we camped next to the BajaRack exhibit and after our four day stay Sergio, the owner of BajaRack was kind enough [...]

    Blog: The Road Chose Me - 50,000kms of ebb and flow - 17 November 2009

    We make an afternoon out of re-supplying in El Rosario with only the bare essentials; street meat consisting of burritos & tortas, groceries & gas. I’m not sure if it’s my dreadlocks or Duke’s long blonde hair, but a couple of kids at the restaurant think we are hilarious and don’t stop laughing the entire [...]
