Time from dock to island party: ~3 hours. Time from island party to dock: 20 minutes. Adam hit 52 mph! Jetskis are great as long as the water is perfectly flat. Also the ocean is trying to kill you. Don’t think it is right now? You’re wrong: it’s just lulling you into a false sense… Continue reading Jetski Summary
Jetski “Party”
Island party was a bit too much, both the getting to the island part and the party. Legit, straight-up stupid of me to assume it was on the northern end of the island. Also dumb not to have left earlier, considering not sure where it was. Series of entirely preventable unfortunate events culminates in Adam… Continue reading Jetski “Party”
Look At This Octopus
Biggie!
Last born sibling first to visit!
Cabo: more American than America
But! This design area we stay in (I guess old central San Jose del Cabo?) has some pretty fine elements!

idiota
Today was very rough, due to a series of entirely-preventable fuckups. Not bringing any pesos. Having insufficient gas. Too much time in sun. So bush league that we’re even getting close to running out of water! And then we get stuck in the sand. On a remote beach. Deep. I totally lose my cool, and… Continue reading idiota
Cabo Pulmo
Bumpy basically from La Ribera down, but we made it. Ebike’s back tire not so much. Maintenance (and spare parts and repair materials) matters: shit out of luck until I can find a bike shop, as a I lack glue to go with my tube patches. Look at this palapa beauty / technology! Boatel: something… Continue reading Cabo Pulmo
air water
Some dirtbag innovation right here. Use power while our batteries are full (= vast majority of day) to run a dehumidifier. Because too lazy to investigate further if I need it, drip through my ~.1-micron camping filter. Gravity powering it, from atop the trailer. Outlet with timer (via wifi, because what I had) turns it… Continue reading air water
knock-out fish
Weird shivering sweats last night, second time ever. Both after eating large amounts of sushi… clearly a plot by my Moana to ensure she gets all the raw fish. Also! Octopi are awesome. I’ve seen several here, and someday I hope to see one punch a fish for fun.
