Baja



AKA Mexico by Mistake
AKA Beautiful Baja Bucket-list Bonanza
AKA Fabulous Fortnight
AKA Now or Never

I was going to try and settle into Arnprior, make another attempt to start becoming a part of that community, but then found a sea kayak camp on Espirito Santo Island, Baja California, Mexico that was on sale and so accidentally hit the buy button.

Our camp

Kayaking
SUPing
Sandboarding
Snorkeling 




Snorkeling again with whale sharks!






The scenery was stunning both from the water and when hiking.








Visiting a sea lion colony and swimming with them another highlight.




There were dolphins...

and humpback whales...



... and grey whales.



... and things to see where ever we turned ...





This last photo is the sunset from our camp on the last day.I don't think any of us wanted to leave.



PS I'm going to teach for a whole year (what? why? who would want to do that?) and I don't see any point in putting up an endless stream of empty posts so my next entry will likely be Feb 1, 2017. If you want to sign up now to receive it by e-mail when it eventually comes out feel free. Until then I'll be in Arnprior living a disconnected of-no-fixed-address life - but thrilled to interrupt at any time for a cup of tea.
