Will it Ever be Enough?
When we arrived to the big house at Baja, we had to kick ourselves hard to remember how great this is - even when the temperatures are about 10 degrees Celcius colder than we aimed for, and the house is impossible to heat.
First Transit of the Year
We were excited about going to the next place. As always, of course, but this time, we would finally meet again with friends from the castle experience last year and our second Camino. Plus we were planning to live in the same place for six weeks. Right on the beach. Yay.
Everything worked out nicely, even though many feelings are in play at the moment, and we have to handle that, too (it is growth, and it is not always easy). Erik took the challenge of cooking whatever was left so we would allā¦
Evaluation Mood - a New Year State of Mind
Do you also want to evaluate at the edge of the new year? I want the statistics: How many museums, how many cities, how many beach days, where did we go, how did it unfold? What do we want to change, and how can we do it? What is the better plan, based on the things we learned?
This kind of evaluation goes through my mind, while the new year unfolds in the celebration on the last night of the year and the humble beginning on the first day.

Transit from La Paz to Tijuana | Day 363 of my 2023 Journal
Arriving in Tijuana. The most overwhelming thing was the wall. Oh, my good. I have to say it. It is crazy. Cra. Zy. Double metal fence construction over hills and around corners keeps the two countries separate.
A much needed pause from being tourists| Day 362 of my 2023 Journal
We canceled the plan to go out on the ocean to swim with the big fish because we are exhausted from being "the tourists with the dollars," paying and paying for everything we do - it is enough now; we need to be normal for a while.
Stuck in the desert | Day 361 of my 2023 Journal
We needed to buy gasoline halfway through our trip and arrived at a gas station that was out of electricity. Therefore, they could not pump the gasoline and, hence, not sell it to us. And they had no idea (of course) when the problem would be fixed.
Dolphins are whales | Day 360 of my 2023 Journal
It is very hard to take good pictures of dolphins, especially if you are at the same time trying just to enjoy the moment and save some hours in the afternoon, not wanting to delete photos all night.
Christmas Games: The JulĆømpiade is on! | Day 359 of my 2023 Journal
The JulĆømpiade is on! For those who do not speak Danish, this word is a mix of Christmas and The Olympics. A tradition we started last year to do something for Christmas as I dread the traditional expectations of the housewife and mom.
Merry Christmas from Puerto Adolfo Lopez Mateos | Day 358 of my 2023 Journal
Isla Magdalena was our Christmas walk. We like to go for a walk at a beautiful place on the 24th of December. We walked over the dunes to the pacific where we found beautiful seashells, and wondered why so many skeletons of turtles were on the shore.
Almost done with my 365 challenge | Day 357 of my 2023 Journal
I have been asked if I am looking forward to completing my 365 challenge so I am off the hook of writing a story every day. It is a good question, and I have been pondering for a while as to whether I am going to continue my daily update.
A day in The mangroves | Day 356 of my 2023 Journal
āWhere the Crawdads Singā is a great novel; I greatly enjoyed it. Here, in Puerto Aldolfo Lopez Mateo, the landscape takes me right there, to the marshes where the novel takes place.
A long, dusty road | Day 355 of my 2023 Journal
A long, dusty road. We literally saw a Roadrunner. Like in the cartoons! It must be one of the highlights of the day. Such a great comment on the desert landscape we traveled through.
