Amazing Places in the Baja Mexico by Gibson

We went to the Baja this last month and there is some pretty cool places I would like to talk about.  Firstly, I would like to talk about a place called Campo Rene because there were many fun things to do. It had good fishing. We met some people, their names are Todd and Louise. Todd gave us a lure called the Rippin Minow and we had good luck. We caught corvina, flounder, rockfish, and bass. Some of the fish we caught we let go beacuse they were too small to keep.  One time we got up early to fish, I didn’t catch a fish that morning, but I caught a stingray. I thought it was weeds at first or a flounder, but then I saw its tail and I knew it was a stingray. We let it go. It was cool to see a stingray. Can I tell you something about a stingray? They sting over their heads.






In Campo Rene it has really good beach combing. We went beach combing mostly every day and we found lots of oyster bags on the beach, so we collected them beacuse there is an oyster farm close by. We also found some pretty cool shells. Some of the shells had brown stuff on them, but our other neighbours, named Bill and Penny, told us if you use Muriatic acid it will come off. The next day we went to town and got Muriatic acid and some fishing lures. When my mom tried the acid it worked. It was cool beach combing. My mom and I love treasure hunting/beach combing.



Campo Rene has lots of wildlife. Wildlife like coyotes. The coyotes walk around at night and eat the parts of dead fish that the birds don’t eat. There is a lot of birds around Campo Rene too, like pelicans, ducks, seagulls, cranes, and osprey. The pelicans are so cool to watch. They swoop for the minnows. Sometimes when you are fishing you see dolphins in the water playing together. We saw most of these animals in the campground but we did not see the coyote, only their tracks in the sand.


Los Barriles is another one of my favorite places in the Baja so far, and I would like to talk about it. In Los Barriles we stayed at a campground called Martin Verdugos. In that campground we booked an ocean fishing trip. On the fishing trip we drove a little ways on the boat, then we slowed to a troll and let out the rods with Ballyhoo bait on the hook. I was the first one to catch a fish out of us all, then Wyatt, and then dad. Dad had to fight a sea lion for his dorado. I caught the biggest fish. I had so much fun fishing on the boat.





El Pescadero/Todos Santos are some really great places that I like too. In El Pescadero we went to Cerritos beach. There were lots of surfers and if you were in the far right corner you would probably get hit by them. I was lucky because I did not get hit by a surfer. I mostly boogie boarded but you had to wait until there was no undertow, and a huge wave was coming. A lot of people were at the beach. We spent 3/4 of a day playing on the beach. It was a fantastic day.







Last but not least, in Todos Santos we went to a place called Taller 17 and it had the best sticky bun ever!!  We went to go see people release turtles. They release the turtles at sun down. The people released over 200 turtles that afternoon. Female turtles start to come back to lay their eggs after twelve years. A baby turtle is the size of three Loonies. It was something I will remember.



In the end, Baja Mexico is Amazing because it has some really cool places and it has a chill vibe.

      As I mentioned briefly in the last blog, the last few days in Texas we hit up Houston. We took the longer scenic drive towards Galveston, and spent the night on the beach in Seaside before making it to Houston the following day. The drive was so beautiful, aside from the brown water in the ocean. Also, it was way more built up than the Baja. Here, all the houses are on stilts. That sure was a surprise to see. I did love how colorful they all were! I heard from a local that Galveston used to be the biggest city on the east coast way back, and then it was hammered by a storm that flooded it, causing major damage. Since then, they have raised all of Galveston 12 feet, put all the houses up on stilts (building code) and built an extensive sea wall. If anything, the US people will not back down and move their location. They will adapt! I think mother nature always wins, and because of that, this is not a place I would live. But, who am I say. Another thing I asked about ...

Nashville -Wyatt

       Chugging along going through lots of other places we arrived at Nashville. When we got to Nashville mom had already booked us a few different places to go play, see or watch something. In Nashville we went to a trampoline park called Altitude. At Altitude they had a mechanism called Wipeout. The setup for Wipeout was four trampolines in a circle and a big bar that swung around and I had to jump over it. The first time that I went on it, I was wondering how fast it could go. I think that the Wipeout mechanism was fun because if Gibson or I hit it with a part of our body and it stopped, I could push it and it would make it go twice as fast as it normally would. One time when I went to jump over it I jumped too late and my legs got hit by the soft bar and went face first into the trampoline. It felt weird to do a face plant into the trampoline because I had never done one before. Altitude also had a balance beam fighting game. When Gibson and I where fighting, I ...

I Don't Want To Title This - Gibson

  These are some highlights from, Georgia, Nashville, and Kentucky. In Georgia we did a lot, but it was raining most of the while. Georgia is known for its antiquing. We did quite a bit of antiquing. We went to 3 antiquing shops, my Omie would have been all about it. My dad got an old fishing rod to hang in his garage.   I can’t lie Georgia was a pretty cool place. I like antiquing and I loved Georgia very very much. Next I went to Nashville Tennessee. Tennessee brought some more antiquing, but this time my mom got an old, working train light. The train light has red and blue lights.   My mom also bought a ladder and some jars. In Nashville, we went to a professional soccer game, Nashville vs LA. The professional soccer game was pretty cool to see in person.   The stadium was not as big as on TV but it was still big.   The players and goalies are so good compared to my level of soccer.   I liked Kentucky. In Kentucky we met some friends named Liam and ...
