Hit the Road: Heading to Mexico

admin — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 17:05:11 +0000

Mexico is the perfect summer vacation destination, you can choose between old world cities and picturesque beaches. Unlike the Caribbean islands, traveling to Mexico is much more affordable because you can drive there. Popular destinations include Monterrey, Tampico, Tijuana, and Mazatlan.

Driving in Mexico is no different than driving anywhere else, but there are some precautions you should take.

1) It is crucial that you get Mexican car insurance for the duration of your stay. No one plans to get in a collision, but you should always be prepared. Mexican officials may not accept foreign insurance, and similarly the coverage of many American insurance companies do not extend across the border.

2) Try to drive during the day. When driving unfamiliar roads it is always a good idea to drive when visibility is at the highest, this way you can see road conditions and easily spot road signs. In addition to visibility, drivers are often fatigued at night.

3) Buy a Spanish phrase book. If you experience car trouble and need help finding a mechanic or changing a flat tire, you will likely need to ask another person for help. Try your best with pronunciation, and likely others will get the gist of your request.

Enjoy your vacation, and don’t forget to bring sunscreen!

Swim with Whale Sharks, the Gentle Giants of La Paz

admin — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 19:33:45 +0000

Road trips can open the door to many adventures. Motoring south of the border to La Paz in Baja California can add swimming with whale sharks to the list of experiences not to be missed. Migrating from the west coast of Australia, whale sharks tend to gather in the nutrient rich Baja waters each autumn. These impressive polka dot beauties are the largest fish in the sea and though they can reach up to 60 tons in weight and measure in the neighborhood of 30 feet, they have a most amicable nature.

Yet for all that size, whale sharks feed on plankton, krill and algae through filers on their enormous jaws. As long as one keeps an eye on the massive tail and a respectful distance from the gaping, filtering mouth, whale sharks are quite approachable. These creatures tend to swim near the surface as they feed, making it easy for snorkelers and SCUBA divers to get up close and personal, perhaps even to touch. Photo op anyone?

La Paz, Mexico is the perfect family friendly destination for not only encounters with these gentle giants, but also for deep sea fishing, kayaking, whale watching or just floating on an inner tube off of an eye popping white sand beach. Pack up the car, load up the cooler and point your horseless carriage south for the adventure of a lifetime.
