It follows the Pacific Crest Trail from Yosemite to Mt. Whitney, along some of the most beautiful trails in the world. I hiked it with my friend Jim about 10 years ago in 23 days, and I’ve been dying to do it again ever since.

...much better than Cabo San Lucas. Don’t pass up a chance to go here. Eat fish tacos, drink Pacifico, and take a walk on the Malecon!

It’s only an hour and a half north, much prettier and without all the tourists. Big resort towns in Mexico tend to be pretty lame, and there’s always something better just down the road, you just have to take a chance and get off the beaten path. Also try Todos Santos, about an hour north of Cabo, or Loreto, a beautiful little fishing village about 6-7 hours north.

...but the men’s restroom is pretty cool. If you’re into that kinda thing.

...in a sailboat!

...and I think it is one of the greatest countries in the world to visit. Plus it’s so easy and cheap from the US. Don’t you want to know a little more about you neighbor?

I spent a summer there in the mid 90’s. It was amazing. Som much history, eveything is so old. The museums are great, as are the parks. At that time Czech was making a difficult transition from communism to capitalism, so it was an exciting time. If you can, go to Plzen, the home of pilsner beer, and Cesky Krumlov, the prettiest little medieval town with one of the world’s best museums.

I am currently living in the city of Oaxaca, Mexico. It has great food, culture, people, and history. It is surrounded by gorgeous green mountains, and is a day’s drive from some of the prettiest beaches in the world. Also close to Chiapas, my other favorite spot in Mexico. If you stop by before April 1, 2006, come meet me for a beer at the Caffe del Borgo, nextdoor to El Freebar!
