Hi all, here are some photos from my camera that I´ve been unable to upload until now, and some more from Rob´s camera. We are in La Paz for our 2nd night after a 5 hour bus ride from Loreto. We´ve decided to forego travelling 6 hours return to see Cabo San Lucas as it looks very touristy and full of high end hotels and golf courses - not quite on our budget and seems a bit cheesy.

Back Streets of Guerrero Negro

Truck that has come to grief on road to Loreto

Roadside shrine.

There are lots of little shrines and crosses along the road, presumably for road deaths. Also lots of beautiful little outdoor chapels in each town.

Eagle´s nest on way to Loreto

You can just see its head poking out. I was a bit gutted as my tele lens was locked in the bus in my backpack.

Rob eating world´s most disgusting iceblock on way to Loreto

I actually spat the first bite out and the lady in the shop laughed. It tasted kind of salty, indescribable really.

Rob in Loreto

He´s wearing his ´slugs´t-shirt that the homeless guy he hitch-hiked to San Francisco with bought him. It´s the same t-shirt Vincent Vega has to put on after he gets hosed down by The Wolf in Pulp Fiction. No wonder people think we´re Americano and Americans say things like ´go those slugs!´ to him!

Oldest building in Loreto

Now a hotel. Absolutely stunning. We had a buffet breakfast on the roof one morning.

That is a pretty bad bathroom experience, I'd have to agree, but it was the biggest laugh I've had this week!! Also, it's too funny that you've seen Sesame Street in Dutch...that must have been worth a chuckle or two. I'm a little behind on reading your blogs but am definitely enjoying them. Keep it up and stay safe guys. Mark
