Baja California (5)
I continue with fairly close updates to try to catch the little backlog.
We are now almost in the South and the climate is summer.
1. Baya San Evaristo, a nice anchorage for yachts traveling.
2. Saline behind the promontory.
3. We decided to stop for the day on a beautiful beach where we were completely alone.
4. Nice camp, isn’t it?
5. The weather was not great but it’s nice for taking photos… 😉
6. I took the opportunity to photograph some birds. Here a brown pelican.
7. A blue heron.
8. A couple of American heating small crustaceans.
9. Sorry, I don’t rememebr the English name of this one. Will complete it later. 😉
10. Grooming…
11. I also test my folding kayak that proves efficient!
12. The next day, the light is brighter before our departure.
13. The road to La Paz delivers nice views…
14. … with some cliffs.
15. Fishing camp…
16. Still the desert…
An incident will slow our progress. While we have just La Paz, I see Baja Shaker that puts headlights in my rearview mirror. I stop and Andrew said: “You’re losing all your diesel”. I lean in and discovers a slot of ten inches in one tank welds. The vibrations of the trail broke this weld aluminum. Using plastic bottles cut, we managed recover about five gallonsto fill the only can we had, the rest of 40 gallons accidentally ending on the side. Baja Shaker then tow me to La Ventana where we find an old man, Adan, who made a nice weld on the tank previously took apart. As it was Sunday, it’s Baja Shaker who took me discovering the coast towards Los Barilles.
17. Seashore North of Los Barilles.
18. Sunset on Baya La Ventana.
19. From the other side of the bay the next morning, a beautiful sunrise with the sound of whales blowing.
After the forced stop, we will head north to join a small group of vans in San Ignacio and go alltogheter see the whales in the Laguna San Ignacio. To be continued in a few days… 😀
