It’s a small resort with twelve “villas” and we have a one bedroom on the lowest level. There is a really small parking lot here and most of the villas are up, up, and up […]]]> https://calderescapes.com/posts/exploring-the-east-cape/ Fri, 30 Oct 2015 23:07:15 +0000 http://calderescapes.com/?p=7732   Upon leaving La Paz, we continued southeast along Mexico 1 and on the recommendation of our new friends, Margo & Tony, we checked out two little towns: El Triunfo and San Bartolo. El Triunfo is a former gold and silver mining town which has captured the heart of the wife of the President of Walmart […]]]> https://calderescapes.com/posts/loreto-to-la-paz/ Sun, 25 Oct 2015 04:59:51 +0000 http://calderescapes.com/?p=7599   We ended up staying in Loreto for three nights. This is a pretty little city with lots of palm trees and a nice malecon. There is a nice beachfront with thatched umbrellas to sit under and a little marina where boats can be hired to take you out on the water to fish or to […]]]> https://calderescapes.com/posts/guerrero-negro-to-bahia-de-concepcion/ Mon, 19 Oct 2015 02:38:05 +0000 http://calderescapes.com/?p=7579     We crossed the state line into our 2nd Mexican state: Baja California Sur, on Sunday afternoon. The terrain along this drive was also full of cactus and then pretty much nothing. There is a HUGE overhead sign that lets you know you are entering BCS and then a gigantic flag and an eagle […]]]> https://calderescapes.com/posts/bahia-de-los-angeles-the-whale-sharks/ Thu, 15 Oct 2015 21:35:56 +0000 http://calderescapes.com/?p=7545   When we left San Felipe, we opted to drive south along the coastal Highway 5 instead of doing almost 800 km of extra driving back to Ensenada and then south along the main highway. The drive was quite pretty for most of the way. You travel along the ocean and see the azure blue […]]]> https://calderescapes.com/posts/ensenada-to-san-felipe/ Wed, 07 Oct 2015 22:51:26 +0000 http://calderescapes.com/?p=7475     We went to sleep lulled by the sound of the ocean and awoke to a beautiful morning. We took our time and walked, Doug did some work, we had a nice brekkie looking out at the ocean, then, and we tried to start up Tigger and no go! Doug checked and neither of […]]]> https://calderescapes.com/posts/crossing-the-border/ https://calderescapes.com/posts/crossing-the-border/#comments Tue, 06 Oct 2015 23:21:12 +0000 http://calderescapes.com/?p=7313     We left Yuma Tuesday morning, October 6th. The drive to the border crossing at Tecate, California/Tecate, Mexico had quite diverse scenery. Yuma is right on the AZ/CA border and almost as soon as we crossed it, we were in the Imperial Dunes Recreation Area and it was quite gorgeous. There is a canal […]]]> https://calderescapes.com/posts/crossing-the-border/feed/ 2
