Hotel in LaPaz... pretty cool place for $40 a night, a suite big enough for 4, with a kitchen. |
Charting the course. Since this was a "bareboat" charter, we navigate and crew it ourselves. |
A typical anchorage, but this one had a few hills to climb (which we always feel compelled to do, even on a "relaxing" vacation). It had a particularly nice view of the bay where we were anchored. |
The two hills were separated by a narrow strip of land that included some salt flats. There were some old evaporation ponds, that the locals used to use to make their own sea salt. |

Our condo on the beach |
Cabo is the one of the great sport fishing centers of the world. The entire bay was filled with charter boats. We chartered one for a day... don't ask how we did... |
"Land's End"... the very tip of the Baja Peninsula. |

The most dangerous part was riding through town to the beach dunes... |
The old lighthouse |
The rocks where we dove (a sea lion rookery at Los Islotes) looked fake, like rocks Disney would have designed. |
We got to dive with sea lions. They're quick... tough to get a good photo. |
Cap'n Bligh at the helm. |
Cave where native tribesmen lived long ago. You could still see the soot marks, shell piles, etc. |
Shrimp trawlers. We sometimes were sharing our anchorage with 2 or 3 |
John caught the biggest fish |
An entire boatload of trouble... |
These cacti were everywhere. They weren't saguaro, but almost as big. |
The End |
