Hola all returning Gringos....
Welcome back to the East Cape. It is a tad steamier than we are used to here in October. Hoping for it to cool off soon. Just a note to let you know that our gals with the great vegetables that was out on the main highway has moved. Their new location is even nicer. They are across the street from Otra Vez. Please go and check out the fresh produce. Sheila Hughes
==========================================
 
Just to let all those in Ponyland know Dr. Pier and I are opening our own dental clinic in Los Barriles starting next week. If you have any questions please call me on my cell 6241665971 or email me at fishinspec@msn.com. I will post Monday or Tuesday our exact opening day and invite everyone to come by and see our new modern office next to the fruit vegetable girls on 20 de Noviembre.         MARY JEAN

a. Information for Boaters
We were boarded on Sunday by the Mexican navy . They were very polite and helpful, and this is what we learned... They check for fishing licenses, you must carry them as well as the original of your vessel license from your home Province / State. They also want to see your original immigration document and a Temporary Import Permit for the vessel if it is OVER 4 Meters
The Temporary Import Permit may be obtained at Pichilingue, Port Authority ( Banjercito ) Take originals and copies of Passport, Immigration document, Vessel Permit, Trailer Registration and Outboard motor registration or Bill of Sale. The cost is $ 50.00 USD for 10 years. Thank you to Yolanda at the the Marina for the information on how to get the Importation Permit !! Ivan and Marilyn
 
b. Yesterday Dan and I went into La Paz for groceries. On the way back just past the new Casino are a series of white lines and bumps to slow you down before an intersection. We looked for a stop sign that usually follows bumps like that - none existed. We stopped at the light one block after the previous intersection. Dan looked back and saw a motorcycle cop following us, not unusual in La Paz. But then he pulled up alongside us and waved us over. He said we failed to stop at the stop sign back there where the bumps were. We said no, we didn't see any stop sign and wanted to go back and look. The cop then asked us to follow him and pull over further than what seemed necessary - he took us further down the road so any possibility of looking at the "stop sign" would be difficult. Both of us stated there was no stop sign by the bumps and we wanted to walk back and look (it was about 91 degrees and humid). We were going back and forth with this guy and finally he said OK just go and be careful next time. Today, we went back into La Paz and basically followed the same route back. There is no Stop Sign anywhere around the bumps. We stopped anyway at the last white line/ bump. Some things just don't change. Be aware and don't ask how much do I owe. - Michelle Koff

RIDES FOR PEOPLE, STUFF and CARAVANS - You may send in your ad every 2/3 days.
 
a. We’re leaving from the San Francisco Bay Area the first of November to drive to La Ribera by Los Barriles. If anyone has something not to large please give send us an Email and we’ll see if we can work it out. Barry whtegl@gmail.com
 
b.     I plan on driving to Los Barriles via the Baja Ferries, if anyone would like down in your own vehicle, with me please let me know. I do not plan on driving from Tucson until about December 17th. Also, I cross the border at Nogales coming and going yearly with my dogs, and have never had any problems with entering or leaving the country with my dogs and have never had an issue with dog food, yet.
Also, if there is anyone who needs some small packages or articles brought down to you in the Los Barriles area, please let me know, and I will send you my address so you can forward whatever it is you need brought down. Please remember I don't plan on traveling to the Baja until mid December. I speak fluent Spanish and willing to help you at the border, at the auto permit place and anywhere else you need translating. I travel with my two dogs, and if you do plan on taking the Baja Ferries from Topolobampo to La Paz, you dogs/cats need to stay in your vehicle for crossing from Topo to La Paz. I do not need an auto permit as mine (although 5 years old) is tied to my FM3 working papers, as long as I keep my FM3 current I never need to renew my auto permit.
        There is also some documentation that you need to be aware of if you plan on driving via Nogales and then take the Baja Ferry to La Paz. I am willing to help you with all your documentation needs, but need you to let me know soon, so you can be prepared on driving to Baja via the Baja Ferries. I am willing to share all info with those who travel with me, but if all you need is info on the Baja Ferry, please check out: www.bajaferries.com, you can choose English so you can understand it better, an there are telephone numbers so you can contact the Baja Ferries office directly in La Paz, Los Mochis, and Topolobampo, and all these ladies speak pretty good English. Thanks, Sylvia, treaturfeet@yahoo.com...Baja or Bust!!
