Thursday Bus from El Rosario to Santa Rosalia 574 km / 356.3 mi :) Having decided on taking the bus through the desert, we set the alarm for 5am and were peddling the 2.5k to the station by 5:40. We arrived at the station 10 to 6… "No ...
Taking the Whole Day Off!
7/30 Santa Rosalia Neither one of us slept sound in San Victor Motel. It was too hot. I felt I was laying in a oven left on the warm setting. The two fans, switched to high, didn't bring any relief either. This oven has convection cooking with the ...

The Ferry to Guaymas

What Am I Eating?
... me today. I did fine at 7:15 this morning when we bought our bus tickets in Gro. Negro. But as soon as we hit Santa Rosalia I became useless. We barely managed to get ourselves a hotel room, and then only because it's fairly obvious what one wants when ...

Leaving the Nest
I'm cringing already, even before my bloodshot eyes are even open. Half remembered pictured fog my head inbetween the painful thumps of my heart pounding in my ears. I drag myself out from beneath the cool sheets and wipe the thick crust from my eyes. ...

Bumpy Passage
#13 Bumpy Passage to Santa Rosalia We wave "hasta luego" to Kasasa at East Ánimas. The 24-hour passage to Santa Rosalía starts out rough and bumpy rounding Punta Las Ánimas. As we near San Francisquito some 10 hours later, the wind pipes up ...
