Car rentals

Just returned from baja today. Fox rents cars for $8 a day plus $ 20 for ins. small cars but they get you around. Cabo airport was the location. Buses are a pain but go onto ventanna view and post a ride needed, maybe get lucky.

Twice this year it has been windy at Nimpkish with overcast skies and no high pressure around. Early June through to late Aug blows harder than Nitwitt. Check Campbell river forecast and if its sunny there the valley will heat up and it blows.

General Common Sense Rules on the Water

Avoid collision at all cost, even when you have the right of way here is a link to safety rules for kiting. Anyone operating a school might want to consider these as part of the course as well as creating the impression that they don't support unsafe practises. http://www.kitesurfingschool.org/rules...

No amount of complaining about the dog crap at Cook st makes it go away. You just have to bend over and pick it up yourself. Life is just like that sometimes. Move on.
