Funny tidbit: Upon arriving to the campground in San Miguel de Allende we met Joachim and Bärbel our new neighbors -a German couple who are driving a really cool and large 4 wheel drive RV around the Americas- one of the first things they asked us was how long we intended to stay for. We [...]
Guadalajara is the next stop on our trail, and is our gateway to the colonial interior of Mexico. Let us start this post by showering you with a trivia tid bit for your next cocktail party: This city is named after the Spanish city of Guadalajara, the name of that city in turn [...]
The town of Patzcuaro does not seem to show up on the radar of super touristy places. It is not one of those towns that when talking to people back home they would know where you are such as they would with Mazatlan or Puerto Vallarta. It does however, have quite the reputation with other [...]
This post is dedicated to Robin, Jodie, Laurel, and Rico, for your love of tequila… we thought of you the whole time!
After Puerto Vallarta we said goodbye to the coast for a little while and headed inland, making a stop in Tequila. We took a really nice back road from Puerto Vallarta into Tequila that [...]

Luis met Edmundo through an [...]
We are having some technical difficulties with this post, here it is but it will be a little more “polished” when we get to a fast and cheap internet source in a few days… Thank you.
From La Paz we headed south to Todos Santos, which we had heard is a neat little town on the [...]
The Bahia Concepcion is touted as having one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline on the Baja peninsula and this was part of the reason we wanted to get to Mulegé so bad. We stocked up on supplies in Mulegé and drove south in search of a good beach camping spot. We weren’t disappointed with the [...]
When the sad time came to move on from San Juanico, we were evaluating which route we wanted to take out of town. There are a few different ways in and out of the area, with only one being easy (easy meaning: only a small amount of washboard). The only problem with this “easy” route [...]
