San Juan to los Cerritos

We left early knowing it would be a long hot ride. And we were right. It has not rained here in months. The mountains were bone dry. We each carried seven liters of water to get us through. And we drank most of it. The path was littered with dead cows. A good reminder this is really inhospitable land. But, with the right resources very beautiful. With no stopping to enjoy the mountain streams, we pushed through and made it to Los Cerritos before the main heat of the day.

It’s amazing how much building has happened since we were here last year. More businesses, hotels and homes. Yet, still enough abandoned properties to feel like it’s a place of neglect. I still dig it. One surprise is the restaurant La Tuna. This was our favorite restaurant last year. So we had to have dinner at their new location. We even had the same server as we did last year in El Sargento. And it was amazing! We stayed at the same hotel, Desert Moon Cerritos Beach Hotel. Great vies, good bar and breakfast included. Now off to Todos Santos!
