Am I mad?

In the immortal words of Cribby "With constant surf and wind this is THE trip that will really blow your mind"! I wonder if I'll get to meet Carlos Castaneda, the master of the blown mind? Guess not, cos he's dead...

Punta San Carlos - at the edge of the sea, on the margin of the mesa!

It's run by a company called Solosports, who have the access rights to this nature reserve. You either drive in for 12 hours, or get on a small plane and fly for a couple of hours - I'm doing the latter. Flying to LA, some kind of wheeled transport down to San Diego, on the US-Mexico border, then plane to the spot. Get back to San Diego seven days later, then fly from San Diego to Toronto - hi guys - before returning to jolly England.

So, booked the flights - hope the timing is right for the SAN-YYZ flight, it's late at night, and I'm kinda expecting the baggage to have arrived so I can take it with me. If not - well, I'm sure I can manage with a toothbrush and Walmart has lots of cheapo t-shirts ;-). I will have some luggage on the small plane, because you're supposed to take your wetsuit etc. so you can sail on the first and last days. Mmm, maybe waist harnesses are being worn as a fashion accessory in TO this summer...

The plan is to keep this blog going whilst on the trip - apparently wilderness internet access is available, so there's no excuse. I should see if there's any other such blogs on the place...
