• Cataviña

    December 9, 2015 in Mexico

    For a tiny desert town Cataviña had a lot of services (or maybe we are just getting used to life on the Baja?). We were first drawn to the mini hotel by a sign saying they had ice cream, but were sad to find no one around. Luckily there was a small store and even a "gas station" further down the road so we bought a few extra groceries and fuel for our stove. Next we stopped at a cafe where we got more filtered water and an early dinner so we could save our water for the next day's ride. We rode ~2 km south of town and followed a small road off to the right, and for the second time we followed bicycle tracks to our free campsite among the cactii and enjoyed another beautiful sunset while eating canned peaches for dessert. We even camped without the fly on our tent so we could look out at the stars. No fear of rain here!Read more
