 A little update from San Carlos - we are parked under a beautiful tree in an RV park (shade is so important...) where we have a pool at our disposal and internet!!! 

Our first night on the road brought us to Truth or Consequences.  We soaked for a couple of hours in the hot springs and spent the night in the Walmart parking lot.  Just before sunrise, we made our roadtrip coffee and we drove the 9 hours to Puerto Penasco.

It was so sweet to get back to our beach .  Things were pretty quiet in town (middle of the week) and we spent a couple of days on the beach and in town adjusting to being on the road again.  We went swimming in 90 degree Sea of Cortez and watched a bunch of baseball and took naps.  Both nights in Puerto Penasco were filled with the sounds of the ocean.....  We didn't have many neighbors on the beach, but one clever truck driver pulled in for a nap under his rig (find him in the photo!)

From Puerto Penasco, we travelled on to Santa Ana (and our only night in Mexico away from the Sea) and this morning headed to San Carlos.  It is hot and sunny and we are so grateful for air conditioning in our truck.  Also grateful for our Ipods and fun tunes.  We have been sleeping with the back hatch wide open since we've been in Mexico - every place we've stayed in so far feels wicked safe.

From a Walmart parking lot to the beach (Puerto Penasco) to a sweet little town (Santa Ana) to the sea again (San Carlos) - and it all feels like coming home.  Our little truck is comfy for sleeping - everything we need is within reach and we are enjoying our travels so far......
