Aldis' have been in the U.S. since the 70's but on the east coast only. On the west coast specifically southern California, we've had Trader Joe's which was bought by the Aldi family in the 70's. Only in about the last decade has Aldi expanded to the west.

Paused the video to let you know it was a coyote you saw. You will see lots of them in California, even roaming urban areas. Usually come out at night in urban areas. I think you would like stopping in San Diego. Going bike riding along the Pacific Ocean. Have to get back to the video now to see what happened in Mexico. The suspense is killing me!

Extremely interesting seeing California High Desert countryside through British eyes.

Welcome to my home State of California!!!!

So pleased you both got into Mexico safely x

The Rain For Rent part gave me a chuckle! They truck in tankers full of water usually to construction sites to spray for dust management. You were correct about the radiator water. High altitude, temperatures, and grades are a triple threat, and some folks don't understand just how much more work it is for the engine to run air con on top of all that. That was definitely a coyote that crossed the road! 😬😬 They generally keep their distance from humans, but get braver if small animals are around to prey upon. My God, that bus driver does not win the Mister P. Safe Driver award!!! 😱😱😱 The lean on that rig as they yanked it back into the right lane to avoid an accident! Those poor passengers. My heart was in my chest! But the sunset that welcomed you guys into Encenada calmed me right down, along with the waves lapping at the beach. ¡Bienvenido a Mexico!

Hello Friends . . glad you made into Mexico . . glad you met new friends who are very knowledgeable of Mexico . . proceed w/caution take care continued safe travels ❤️🙋‍♀️

I've been to Baja California many times and throughout Mexico in 1960 and 1968 on camping road trips with occasional stops at hotels. Dad loved Mexico. We went in 1968 to see the Mexico City Olympic Games which was tons of fun - we stayed in family truck cab-over camper in an RV park. All over we stayed in parks, on beaches and only had a few minor hiccups - glad Dad had insurance and spoke Spanish well enough to be fine with various officials.

If you could drive in Istanbul, you can drive anywhere in the world. Greetings from Izmir...

Triple Wowser for the sunset, dreamy & delightful. WooHa makin it to Mexico.

Saw one of those on as road going to Fresno, terrifying, I had to jump out of the car when we stopped (Tarantula)

Great timing going into Ensenada, w/ that sunset. If you later go north back into California, above/beyond a mountain pass just-north of LA, the 5 and 99 highways split. Take the 99 to Visalia and go east, to the General Sherman Sequoia tree. The girth & height of these trees makes you feel like an ant. Oldest tress in the entire world (or USA). God-bless, you seem to represent the Brits quite well.

Really enjoying your blog. I shipped my GB reg motorhome out to Canada in 2017 and drove to Alaska and back shortly after my wife died. I intended to return and do the route you are following now but family and covid issues scuppered that. Getting "ants in my pants" now...... not sure I want to do it alone though. Done a lot of Europe and Scandinavia in the meantime. Would be cool if our paths cross one day..... I interview another British couple who have travelled the world in an identical motorhome to mine on my channel. Getting restless now thanks to you two!!!!!!

I would live to experience this life style although I would be one mechanical breakdown from disaster. So I'll just stay parked in Chatham Ma. In a contractor garage. Great video in slab city.

In Oct 20222, I crossed into Reynosa, Mexico from McAllen, TX, USA and traversed the entire country of Mexico ILLEGALLY to Guatemala. I was stopped some 5 times by Mexican police hoping for bribes. NOT one of them concerned I was in Mexico ILLEGALLY! NOT one of them. All of them wanted their bribes paid, which I challenged and refused, and why all of them gave me a hard time for entering ILLEGALLY none of them were interested in arresting me for the ILLEGAL entry. There is NO point to my story, simply sharing. Be safe.

Hola👋from southern New Mexico🌶️🌵😊... We call the jails here " the Cross Bars Hotel" and I have to tell you what happened to me when I was coming back from Las Cruces had to go down for a heart test and they did a radiation test and I had to have a paper saying I had this test done to get thru the border patrol cross which you went thru on Interstate I-10 when you went to Tombstone,Az. Anyway at the Doctor's office we called it 🤔"The get out of jail free card" ie Monopoly game 😊 so as you know all the cameras when you come up to the crossing before you get to the stop sign they know that you are carrying radiation of course I say Hi and here I say "Here is my get out of Jail card" New guy with no sense of humor and he asks for my Drivers license which I gave him. And the Sargent comes out immediately and gives it right back and says where is the radiation at and I say it's in my body and that's why you got" my get out of Jail free card " He says Are you O.K.? and should you be driving?and I say I'm fine it's O.k as long as I don't cough on you and don't pee on you. They took two steps back. They kept my "Get out of jail card' guess they have to account for why their radiation equipment alerted. Every time you go thru those you are being exrayed both ways. Just so you know for future reference. I feel sorry and worried for them because all of the x-ray they get daily. I had a friend who worked in the border patrol and there is a high rate of cancer.. I drove thru that stretch of road where all those rocks and it gets real hot in the summer. Yup that's a coyote. Looking forward to your Mexico trip. Angels all around you and Trudy.🙏💖🤗

And you thought Slab City was scary..Please be careful!

It’s not nearly as dangerous as you think. I’ve lived my whole life on the border and cross weekly.

Were you camped at San Miguel by any chance Chris?

They the police are normal with guns all through Mexico. We retired in Nayarit in Banderas Bay always see them. No worries enjoy your travels 🤩

problem with online FMMs are that there are scam websites out there. Just better off to pay the $30USD +/- at the border.Only takes 15 minutes max
