December 1,2010 - Big day! We left Potero Regional Park at 8 a.m. and fueled up in Tecate (what a wild case that was!) and crossed the border. We took the 'road less traveled" because last year's Hiway 3 is a mess under repair and construction. We took the toll road Hiway 2D which was great; then we got onto Hiway 1 south, the major road in Baja. We sort of got ourselves lost a little in Ensenada - and "lady gaga gps' was confused too. However, we valiantly 
carried on and arrived at Estero Beach Rv and hotel just about noon time. We were freezing in AZ and Potero park. In Estero there is less wind and warm sunshine. We had lunch on the patio of the hotel. Some minor problems have come and been addressed. Mike had CB problems, Danny had awning, and our right side mirror wanted to flip itself off into the dust. Didn't quite make it, thank goodness, but we did need to call a repairman to come out to the casino and give it a look. I thought he was going to charge us double because the guys were there trying to help..... however, it WAS Mike who solved the problem ultimately. So it is good to go now. You can see from the photos that we arrived in sunshine and Baja breezes in Estero beach. We managed to have a 'semi' 4'oclock with Mike working on his CB and Danny giving good advice. Roger got his Kindle out and I was taking some photos. Elaine managed to set some sun and relax. We returned to the hotel for dinner tonight and now at 9p.m. I am ready to call it a day. When you wake at 5 a.m., get up at 6 a.m., and have excitement all day long, it takes a toll. I wouldn't miss it for the world. Hope all of you are in sunshine and warm breezes. If not, then enjoy our photos and know that we are thinking of you! happy trails....
