THUMBS UP - ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have name and/or email address.

a.  Car Rental Discussion via the Venta View:  Re: discussion mexican car rental. I have only had occasion to rent a vehicle in Baja 2 or 3 times. Although the first occasion was some time ago (maybe 1999) I will recount my experience as it seems to add some pertinent info to the discussion. I was charged the rather exorbitant daily insurance fee as you have discussed, after being advised (by the car rental agency) that my premium visa card coverage was not valid in Mexico. This added up to something like $500USD. So upon my return to Canada I contacted the Canadian chartered bank that issued the visa card to verify. They insisted that the coverage was indeed valid in Mexico. They followed up this conversation by asking me to send them a copy of my rental agreement. I then received a full credit for the approx $500USD that I paid to the car rental company. On subsequent rentals I have declined the (optional) insurance coverage in the continued belief that I am covered with my visa card.  RussellC

b.  Our whale trip with Octavio was over the top!!  From travel and meals to out on the water to touch, hug and kiss the whales--it was unbelievable--a once in a lifetime experience.  We highly recommend Octavio Aviles. <turispancho@aol.com.  Chris and Christina Geyer

QUESTIONS

a.  Looking for information on the road conditions from San Felipe connecting to Mex 1 heading south down the Baja.  bernice_phillips@hotmail.com

b.  Trollope's *Chronicles of Barsetshire*, 6 vol.s (aka *Barchester Chronicles*): buy/borrow/trade (have Austen, Wharton, James, Hardy, etc). Driving down from the US? Above may be available as a 6vol pbk set in a used book store. Dave Love Los Barriles m800md@gmail 624-1500-324 cell.

c.  I have several neighbors in El Triunfo offering to show me certain areas around the mines that could have buried silver and gold stashes from the old days.     If anyone has a high quality metal detector that can be used in the process I would share the adventure of discovery  with them !     Contact Link at cabolink@yahoo.com or call 624-1824068.

d.   Does anyone know of any long term parking at or around the Cabo San Lucas (airport code CSL, not  SJD).     Mike @ 624 124-8074 or michaelwatts7755@msn.com

e.  Can any one in Ponyville provide me with information/advice re availability of vegan foodstuffs in Baja, especially the L/B area? I am wondering about animal product substitutes, fresh veggies during the summer, bakery goods and so on. This is not a philosophic decision on my part but has recently been prescribed by my physician so anything that would aid me keeping to the path would be most helpful. I really have extremely low self discipline, maybe there is some kind of support group out there? Thanks a bunch!  gaaredwards@gmail.com
