It’s 9pm and we are in a hotel room in L.A, waiting for a pizza to arrive. Ordered at 8.10pm. If it doesn’t arrive soon I’ll be asleep! After a rather sleep deprived night, I was up at 7.45am and down the road to see what damage had been done…
Last night was perfectly relaxing. Nobody around and the sea gently lapping the shore. But it must have been one of the longest nights for me. Yes it was hot, 31 degrees in ‘Poki’ at 2am! Poki! How appropriate after last night. That’s the new name for our ‘Green Goddess’,…
Tonight we are camped very close to the water line in a marginal campsite, on the Sea of Cortez. It’s nearly 6.30pm and very warm, humidity wise. Last night while Nicky, Joel, Jen and I were enjoying a chat in the bar over a beer, a small fly buzzed into…
Three other RV’s must have come into the campsite after we had gone to bed at 8pm!! We heard them all leave before we rose this morning. Today’s drive was through very arid, sparsely populated territory. Hot and inhospitable. The scenery alternating between brown hilly, scrubby ground with several different…
Well, a lovely camp site looking right over the Pacific from an elevation of about 30m. The swim last night was lovely and refreshing. Jen thought it was cold but once under, it was warm. It’s a dry dusty site but with a view to die for. The only problem…
It’s getting much warmer now as we track south. Our campsite was nicely tucked in amongst some pretty amazing rocks. It was an early start at 9.30am. Not sure how we managed that but it was nice to get going again. For the remainder of the morning we were motoring in…
A lovely night. Cool but not freezing. The sun was up before us and doing it’s work charging the auxiliary battery via the solar panel on the roof. We have been having a little problem with the fridge cutting out, so decided to rectify it and do some other remedial…
We were expecting rain yesterday, but it didn’t happen. Snow was forecast for today and we got it during the night. I had to get up to answer the call at 4am and was greeted with a white-out. Here I am standing there with only the wrapping I arrived in,…
As yesterday was Jen’s day to write the blog, she wouldn’t let me put these pics in her story. No taste that girl. Anyway, here are some pics of a junk yard we passed and here is some of the treasure waiting to be restored. This morning has dawned rather…
Boy, last night was a blur of feverish stupor but this morning I woke, like I imagine a butterfly emerging from it’s chysalis, reborn. Our campsite was immaculate and complete with showers and flushing toilets. Great value at $20. We were camped in amongst massive trees and to see the…
