La Paz, we arrive just after daybreak. More hurry up and wait. And of course the trailer rig blocking us can't release it's airbrakes. Actually, it doesn't take too long, we're just ready to go.
La Paz appears to be where the well-to-do go to play. Lots of marinas with huge gates. We just pass through, but the shops seem to be very upscale.
Southern Baja does not impress. We just left some of the best riding I've ever done and now we're on one of the straightest roads ever. And it drones on forever. And ever.
And then, just before Loreto, we come across a great set of twisties. And then we pop out to this.

Mountains on one side, bluest water I've ever seen on the other. This is more like it. I'm not a beach/water person, but this is gorgeous. And nonstop.
