TRIP: Baja, 1972

Over Spring Break, 1972, I flew to Burbank, California, and met two Swiss friends for a camping trip to San Quintin, Baja California, Mexico. I trusted my friends to do all the planning, and they expected camping in Mexico to be similar to camping in Europe. WRONG! The trip was an interesting disaster, and we only spent one day driving to San Quintin, then back again--before the Baja Highway had been completed.
