The push North
The time has come for us to start heading North, and I must admit that I am happy about it. Surely, Baja has been great (at least parts of it), but I can only take so much desert-camping and beaches, you know. The call of mountains and trees are strong in nomad-brain.
We left Los Barriles, and drove straight through La Paz – making for two times we decided not to stop in Baja’s largest city – due to the heat. Instead, we kept on rolling North, nearly 300 miles, all the way to Loreto. Now, a 300 mile drive in the USA, with it’s Interstate system, is not much of a big deal, but there in Baja the speed limits range from 35 to 55 and the main highway is more akin to what would be a secondary-route in the USA.
We did make sure to stop in El Triunfo Cafe, in the town of El Triunfo – Pop 320, for a late breakfast and to pickup another loaf of the most delicious garlic-bread.
It took about 9 hours of driving, arriving late in the afternoon, but with enough time to shower (finally) and do a load of laundry before bed. The next morning we drove the short distance to Playa El Requeson, in the Bahia de Concepcion…
…where we had a night camping on the beach by ourselves before pulling into Mulege the following morning where we would camp for the work-week. 
Will you two be heading into Baja again next year? I’ve tried to sign up to follow your posts with no luck. Can you sign me up please?
We will not be coming back next year. We will be going to the South and possibly up the East Coast in early 2017. We are talking about coming back the winter after though.
Woot! You didn’t tell me about this plan for East Coast 17′! Awesome!
Yea, still very much in the works of course
