      Exploring - and more rain...

      18 november 2019, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

      Today, the weather was supposed to get better. So we went to the turtle sanctuary in the morning in order to see some baby turtles get released. The people in charge look for turtle nests along the beach and mark the spots, so eggs don't get destroyed. 45 days later, the baby turtles hatch and first thing they do is crawling slowly right to the sea. They are all on their own against their predators. 13 years later, the turtles return to the same spot where they hatched to lay their eggs in it. This morning, we saw maybe 50 baby turtles heading to the sea. At least a couple of them got caught by seagulls straight away for breakfast. That's nature, I guess.
      In the afternoon, we did some exploring. Our destination was a waterfall at the end of a dry river. We could borrow the ATV, which was good fun. However, it started raining again and the dry river was not that dry anymore. When we could basically see only water around us instead of a dirt road, we decided it's probably safer to head back as fast as we can. Good decision! It rained so heavily that we could hardly see anything. Furthermore, the sand and mud flooded the paved roads and the dirt roads basically turned into rivers. But we made it back to the house safe and spent more time on the porch 😀      Meer informatie

      Enjoying the beach and the sea

      19 november 2019, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

      Finally, the weather looked kind of nice. So we spent the morning kayaking in the bay. Good training for the upper body after LOTS of cardio and leg training over the past few weeks. In the afternoon, we went to town to have some tacos and check out the beach. Some kite surfers tried their luck, but struggled with relatively calm winds. We went to a nice restaurant for dinner and got some icecream from the supermarket for desert. Great day for regaining energy for the days of cycling to come!!Meer informatie

      Back on the bikes

      20 november 2019, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

      This morning, we got back on the bikes to cycle to La Paz. It was quite hard to leave Los Barriles as we had a really good time with Donna and Bill and very much liked the town. However, there's still a long way ahead of us and it won't get any easier to move again.
      On the way to La Paz, we passes some nice mountain villages and stopped at El Triunfo at the famous bakery to get some awesome bread - yum! It was a nice ride with great views. The rain was good for the landscape, everything is green down here and we saw many trees amd bushes with yellow, pink, red, purple, blue, white and orange blossoms. Haven't seen this in a long time...
      Once we got to La Paz, we had to organize our ferry tickets to mainland. It's actually pretty hard to find valid information on the ferry times. We had tried our luck online, but the website of the ferry operators either didn't work, didn't have information at all or showed contradicting information. So we had tried to ask for help in Loreto already, but the Mexicans at the tourist office there didn't understand the information provided either and advised us to go directly to the habour in La Paz (which is 20km outside of the city). When we got here last Saturday, all offices were closed for the weekend. So we checked at a hotel when we were in Los Barriles. The staff was supportive and called the ferry call centre who told us that there's no passenger ferry to Mazatlan at the moment. Only a cargo one which we cannot use, so we'd have to go to Los Mochis, some 450km North of Mazatlan (= 4 days on the bike). That's why we decided to try in person. At the first operator, they confirmed that we'd have to go to Los Mochis, so we went to a second one. At that place, they sold us tickets to Mazatlan on the cargo ferry - no problem at all! Typical Mexican! It doesn't leave before Saturday though, so we have some time to explore the marine life here (whale sharks and sea lions).
      We also passed the 6000km today - wohoo! But Herbert got another flat tire. Roads in La Paz are pretty dirty, so it wasn't a surprise. Luckily, we are staying in a big room in a hotel (first time in a hotel on this trip), so he could fix it straight away.      Meer informatie

      Isla Espirito Santo

      22 november 2019, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

      Today, we wanted to check out the second major attraction at La Paz: The sea lion colony at the tip of the island Espirito Santo. We went on a boat trip and headed North towards the island. The wind was pretty strong and blowing from the North, so the boat ride was quite rough and pretty wet when we hit the waves. The people at the front of the boat had no fun at all. After about 30 minutes, we turned around. Apparently, our small support boat couldn't make it against the waves and the current, so we had to toe it for the rest of the trip.
      As we came closer to the Northern tip of the island, the waves got even higher which didn't make it any smoother. The captain did a really good job and we could already see the arch - the rock formation where the sea lions live - , but when some people got too scared and pretty mad, he decided to turn around. We stopped at one of the beautiful bays of the island to have lunch and later at a reef for snorkelling. We also saw some sea lions on a rock close by. They were just sunbathing though and we couldn't stay to watch them, as the wind and waves made it too dangerous. Luckily, we had the waves in our backs on the way back to La Paz, which made it a lot smoother.
      In the end, it was a long day sitting in a boat today - definitely not enough exercise for us 😉      Meer informatie

      Leaving Baja California

      23 november 2019, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

      Today was our last day in Baja California as we had booked on a ferry to Mazatlán on the mainland. The harbour is located about 18km North of La Paz. As there is some nice beaches, we used the day to check them out. So first, we had a beer at Tecolote Beach. Great beach to hang out, just a little windy today. Secondly, we cycled to Balandra Beach, a stunning bay with mangroves, white sand and turquoise water. As there were way too many people, we decided to go back to the ferry terminal early and have a beer at the restaurant/beach club next to it while waiting.
      Boarding the ferry was quite professional. However, they didn't really know what to do with our bikes. They wanted to put them in the baggage container, but realized that this wouldn't work. So they called us back via the radio and we had to push them in the truck area. Let's see how they make the it... We got seats in a dark shady room. They are showing some loud Bruce Willis movie and our seats are right next to the "cafeteria". Don't think this is gonna be a quiet night...      Meer informatie

      Baja-Ferries...

      15 augustus 2022, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

      Schön wars in Tequila. - Uns zieht es weiter nordwärts nach Mazatlan, dem Ausgangshafen für die Fähre nach Baja California. In Tepic, einer kleinen Stadt, beziehen wir ein altehrwürdiges Hotel direkt in Zentrum, machen aber noch einen Abstecher nach San Blas - sollte ein altes Fischerdorf und ein Geheimtip für Touristen sein. Uns haben aber nur die feinen Crevetten im Strandbeizli überzeugt. Dann zurück nach Tepic ins Hotel. Ein heftiges Gewitter hat uns veranlasst, den Apero als als auch das Abendessen im Hotel einzunehmen. - Verpasst haben wir wohl nicht viel. Weiter geht es am nächsten Tag durch eine üppige Landschaft mit riesigen Mangoplantagen und Weiden mit grossen Tierherden. Unser Ziel ist der RV-Platz bei Teacapan direkt am Pazifik, ein sehr schönes Resort mit weissen Bungalows. Nur der Campingplatz ist leider total vergammelt. Deshalb fahren wir durch die schöne Moorlandschaft mit vielen Vögeln zurück nach Esquinapa de Hidalgo und steigen im sehr einfachen Hotel ab, Hauptsache, die Autos sind sicher verstaut und wir können gut schlafen. Typisch mexikanisches Essen gibt es im Punto Centro Cafe, allerdings ohne Alkohol aber mit liebevoll dekorierten Capuccino. Auch Desayuno gibt es nicht im Hotel, sondern daneben im kleinen Cafe. Sehr früh am nächsten Vormittag erreichen wir Mazatlan. Um 17.00 startet unsere Fähre nach la Paz auf Baja California. Wir haben unsere Kabinen bezogen, essen, was es zu essen gibt🥴 und warten mit vielen andern auf die Überfahrt. Unser geübter Blick auf den karibischen Golf verspricht uns eine geruhsame Nacht....
