Greetings from Bahia de Los Angeles!

We arrived at the Vermilion Sea Field Station (vsfs.org) yesterday afternoon about 5pm. Everybody’s safe and in good condition, albeit a bit dirtier than when we left the U.S. The weather here is clear, with a strong north wind blowing since last night. Hopefully the wind will die down by tomorrow.

We had a great couple of days drive down here and will spend today and tonight here before setting out on our eight-day camping trip down the peninsula. Be sure to check the itinerary throughout the next several days to see where we are, and of course we’ll update the blog during while we’re on the road as we are able.

We’re also going to have our Teaching Assistants blog this year—which is a change from the last couple of years, so be looking for their contributions to the blog and their perspective on our experience in Baja. You can check out their bio’s if you click on their names in the right column of the blog.

We’ll post more later; we’re off to take the students on a little tour of Bahia.
