We are all the way down at Bahía de los Angeles now, on the Sea of Cortez. We have been quite successful in our sneek-a-camp technique, camping on the beach here last night, and at the beach north of El Rosario last night. The bay here is very beautiful, with many offshore islands. The sea is very calm and laps quietly at the beach. We have been enjoying wonderful food everywhere, including the discovery of the "quesotaco".

Our first night we camped somewhere in the mountains north of San Vicente in an incredible rainstorm. Driving south we came into the sun and it's been sunny since. Here it is almost hot. The trip from El Rosario to Bahía de Los Angeles crosses the peninsular diagonally, from the Pacific to the Sea of Coretz. Along this trip we finally enter the land covered by boojum trees and cardón cacti. Cataviña is a tiny town in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by huge boulder fields and near an oasis-like river crossing.

From here I think we are driving north again, eventually to Parque Nacional Sierra de San Pedro Mártir, then back to Ensenada and the Punta Banda, and then over, probably on the 3 and the 2, to Mexicali and Cañon de Guadalupe.
