Bahia San Luis Gonzaga

Continuing the days drive ~ Gonzaga Bay is not the most difficult place to get to in Baja, but it is certainly not anywhere near the top of the easiest places to get to. It was the first gravel road in Mexico that we traveled on. Apparently the road situation will be changing soon (that is a "Baja" soon meaning it may be quite a while) as the road from San Felipe is being paved all the way into Gonzaga. We did witness them actually working on it which was a good sign.
lol
We had our first "llantera" visit when Tod discovered his tire had a slow leak.

They quickly discovered the culprit......yikes!

Lucky for us, that tire shop was right next to our camping spot for the night. We had finally made it one of the most perfect beaches ~ a serene, beautiful, remote Bahia treasure: Bahia San Luis Gonzaga!

Apparently this is one of those destinations that is to be considered part of the "real Baja" where you hear mostly the sounds of small waves washing ashore. The star gazing at night is some of the best in the world which we later found out was true.

We camped out in this sheltered palapa. We were happy to have it, as the wind picked up at times and spit sand everywhere. Luckily, the weather improved later in the evening so we could enjoy dinner and the night sky :)

Audrey, who may have been more eager than me, quickly put her feet in the water. We made some nice strolls along the beach that night. It was perfect after a long day of driving........
I took photos and left foot prints  ;)
The foot prints were erased pretty quickly with the next wave........

There were many cool kinds of shells on the beach......

Audrey and I goofin' around.......

This is one of the better scenery photos of Gonzaga Bay:

Here is an example of a "crowd" on this beach..........

Haha!

Back at the palapa, we had a good laugh about one of Roberts vehicle accessories.
This is the Bumper Dumper.......

Can you see it? 

It attaches to your hitch! What an invention and you never know when it may come in handy, especially in Mexico! Plus, you know it's tough because it's made in the USA :)
Just so you know, no one got sick on this trip and I don't think anyone got to use it.
lol

Leave it to my husband to fashionably model it for us :) Haha

Isn't this one of most beautiful camping spots you've ever seen?

Simply wonderful!

Bryan and Dani went looking for reptiles that night. Unfortunately they didn't find any snakes, but they saw over a dozen scorpions under black light......

The next morning we discovered some tiny visitors on the beach.......

The first of many sea critters we'd view in and around the water on this trip.
We were burning daylight, we had another long drive to our next destination........
