We have been in La Paz the last couple of days, getting some dental work completed and getting some supplies for our last section of coastline that we want to paddle before leaving Baja. At the campground where we were staying we noticed an Alaska license plate. The man driving the truck approached us and we began the usual talk of where do you live in Alaska. As the conversation continues we find out that this man had lived in the town where we live. Then he mentions the road which he lived on and then we discover that we had lived in the same house!
Leaving La Paz our next destination is Loreto. Sometime the stars line up and it just so happens that a group of people that we worked with at Minnesota Outward Bound in the 70's are doing a kayaking trip. They are going to be in Loreto when we arrive. We were given a heads up by Alan who had organized the trip. He knew that we were in Baja and if there was anyway that we would be in the vicinity it would be a fun reunion. Needless to say they were all surprised and we had a nice evening and morning with them before they departed on the plane.
