Baja 2022, Part 4, North to the Border

After making the turn at Cabo San Lucas it was basically north along the Baja peninsula all the way to the border over the coming days. We were on the road early with plans to stop in Ciudad Constitution for a mid morning taco.

The machaca tacos were wonderful, the tortillas were fresh and after a grand total of $4 for 4 tacos we were off to another wonderful day in Baja.

Baja 2022, Part 1, The Border Crossing

We ventured south of the border to Baja Mexico for our first time, in January 2022. As with any trip, a big portion of it is the planning and anticipation, but for this trip, being it involved leaving the country and venturing to a place we hadn’t been, then throw in the fact that there’s another language involved, well, there was a bit of work too do to prep for this trip. This post will cover a bit of trip prep for Baja as well as our experience crossing the border, then we’ll get to the actual trip in following posts. Hopefully this post will be useful to those who are considering or planning a trip in the future.
