Back in Baja... -California, that is.

Well, I made it. Guadalajara to Topolobampo (?), apx 630 miles. Took me 12 1/2 hours, riding constantly, minus toll booths $$!!, gas refueling, inspection stations, getting minorly lost for 2 minutes, and 2 separate stops to eat, about 10 minutes combined. All on 3 hours of sleep.

After getting to the ferry terminal in Topolobampo, I was told the private cabins were sold out, so I "slept" in the bar. Seriously. With about 100 other people. Some of which did not sleep, if you get my drift. Luckily, there was a jukebox to keep them entertained. Boy do Mexicans love their LOUD music! It`s truly amazing how someone can have such passion for noise and festivity, even at 3 in the morning.

So another big ride today. Headed north to catch up with the film crew. I dont think I`ll catch them before they leave Catavinia, so I`ll have to make it to San Ignacio if I can before dark, and camp out and wait. Wish me luck!
