Has anyone ever driven from San Diego to Cabo San Lucas?

15. That's cool...my friend just went to Norway to find relatives - can't wait to

hear how her trip was.

I love the sound of your driving trip. Did you stay in any old motels - retro - just drive up and walk in? I think they are great. It is a mortal sin the way motels are built now...big boxes, hallways, can't open a window. Evidently cheaper to build? And, there's that safety thing. But, seriously, how many crazy bad people were out there banging the traditional motel doors down and killing people?

I also think there is something so nostalgic about going sightseeing. Maybe it's from pleasant childhood memories with family?

We just got back from Virginia and did Monticello. Yikes Jefferson was an amazing guy (except the slavery thing) - We learned that every morning he plunged his feet into cold water because he believed it would prolong his life. He lived to 83 when the average life expectancy was late 60's in those days. who knew ?
