Happy Valentine’s Day!

We had a big 7-hour travel day to Guerrero Negro. The drive was very challenging with narrow roads and no shoulders. Passing a truck going in the opposite direction made us wince. At times we drove through mountains and grades we haven’t seen in our entire time on the road. It became abundantly clear to us that the Baja is not really built for a 40-foot Thelma towing a Louise. This explains why you will mostly see vans traveling down the Baja and larger rigs are only occasional. I was in awe of Grant’s driving skills and focus for such a long, stressful trip.

We got to Guerrero Negro in one piece and found our chosen RV park, Malarrimo. I went in to check in but was met by a seeminly grumpy gentleman who just seemed like he wasn’t in the mood for people.

We found a spot, hooked up and decided to have dinner on the pation of the park’s restaurant to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Our server also started out a little gruff, but eventually warmed up to our friendliness and my bad Spanish.
