Bahia de los Angeles, Jan 30-31, 13

Off to the beach again!  We are going to Bahia de los Angeles.  There is only one road into this town off of the main highway 1.  Once we turned off the main highway it was a 35 mile drive to the town.  This town only got electricity 3 years ago (that is how rustic some parts of the Baja are).  It is a very beautiful area.  Not a lot of people live in there.  The campsite was called Brisa Marina.  The only services offered were -- dump.  We parked in a spot that was right along the beach.  There were tons of shells all along the beach.  It was a low key day--later in the afternoon we had a "Happy Hour" and some locals and other RVer's came by.  The next morning it was a bit overcast but Mike and I went out in a 2 man kayak.  It was lovely and you could see right into the water  and the fish swimming around.  Later on we took a little tour around town.  The town at one time had been a big mining town -- so we checked out the Museum -- which was very interesting.  There is a 92 year old American man, Herman Hill, who was a big miner way back.  We went by to visit him and he shared some very amusing stories about his life and mining days.  He had written a book about his experiences -- Mike bought it.  Later we went back to the beach and walked with the dogs to the light house.  All in all ... a good time in Bahia.

Who are those people?
