Lluvia

Raining today. Riding a fully loaded bike without waterproof bags did not sound fun at all and camping in the rain sounded even less fun. We decided early on that this was going to be a fun trip, so we decided to stay another day here in Guerrero Negro. Are legs are finally feeling a little more normal too.

The trip has taken an imaginative and interesting twist. Both being Lord of the Rings enthusiasts, Jeff brought along the trilogy in book form for us to reread if we have time. Well, as of this afternoon, Jeff is halfway through "The Two Towers" and I am about halfway through "The Fellowship of the Ring". Conversation has transitioned from how ISU basketball will do without Luca Steiger and which latina soap opera star on billboards is the best looking to in-depth discussions of middle earth and what it would be like to meet J.R.R. Tolkien. Miles will soon be converted into leagues and before long, we may be speaking in the high tounge of the elves and spouting the poetry of Tom Bombadil, who knows.

On the road again tomorrow!
