   Mark, thanks for writing this up and ....

   For those who joined Mark for this trip, you 'scored' big by having him
showing you what he's discovered, over the years,  about traveling the
Baja.  Having someone leading who knows where things are, how things can be
done, etc...You probably saved a whole lot of stress.  As you  discovered,
Baja isn't the US, though Ensenada looks much like Stockton...grin.   It
takes a few trips to get things wired and to find the best places to stay,
to change money, to get visas, etc.
  And Mark deserves kudos for making the trip happen.   I am sure it was a
lot of effort for him to do the organizing.
  Baja is one of our favorite places, and a Vanagon might be the perfect
vehicle to take on a trip like you all just did..
  Don Hanson
