Today was a long ride. 448 miles of mostly desert interrupted by the occasional town. Some very pretty towns. One in particular was a true oasis. As we come around a corner, we drop down to a very pretty place, thick with palm trees rather than the familiar cactus. For a while we followed the coastline and saw many beautiful sandy bays. Almost all with either a resort and/or campground or even just a row of 3-sided grass huts, just waiting for the snowbirds motor homes to pull up along side and spend the winter.
We left Santa Rosalia at 7:30 A.M. and ended up in La Paz a long time later with very sore “donkeys”. Hot! Wow, was it hot. You don't feel like you're sweating when you're cruising at 80 +/- but when you stop, a litre or two of cold water or juice disappears fast.
A mexican Hot Dog vendor took care of our dinner needs and the cerveza was mighty good!
Day 6
We are going to stay in La Paz for the next day, maybe two. Today we're off to explore the town and check out the fishing scene. More as it unfolds.....
