In Mexico

We have now arrived in Mexico, on the Baja peninsula which is a large long extension of California and in fact it is called Baja California in the north and Baja California Sur in the south.

So far, we are not struck by the beauty of the place.  It is a poor and very dry country and the towns reflect this.  There is very little vegetation around.  We have driven about 500 kms so far and this is a fairly typical view.  Reminds me of Joshua NP back in the US.

These photos demonstrate Aussie pride.  I am referring to the AUS sticker on the front and back of our vehicle.  This took a major effort to achieve.  We realise that we should have purchased such a sticker back home but it never occurred to us.  In the end, we had to have them specially made up at a graphic design place at the cost of $32!

Now everyone can see that we are from Australia.
