They can grow to be 100 feet long, the height of a 10 story building and weigh as much as 400,000 pounds. Their hearts are the size of a car and it’s beat heard more than 2 miles away. Their tongues the size of an elephant. They are bigger than any dinosaur that ever roamed the earth and known to live up to 100 years. They eat tiny krill to sustain their massive bodies, they summer in the polar arctic and winter near the equator separating our two hemisphers. But almost always they visit the East Cape, especially abundant with life sustaining sea life this season. At one time plentiful amongst the world’s oceans, as many as 350,000 a year were harvested during whaling times. Although now protected, it is believed there are approximately 15,000 in the world today – and one is here for us! See Baja’s Awesome Whales & Dolphins tomorrow for photos.

Tijuana International Airport is located on the border at Otay Mesa between the United States and Mexico, minutes away from downtown San Diego. The two points are connected via the CBX (Cross Border Xpress), a new and convenient indoor crossing bridge, built exclusively for air passengers and ...

Hate to speak too soon, but ever since the marines took out seven assassins, (that wore body armor and had assault rifles), the daily two or three murders a day have slowed to most days now, none.
This is assuming that all the news fit to print is in the four local newspapers I scan daily.

We can only hope these guys aren't replaced. I suspect they were causing most of the murders. Very few survived after being attacked by the hitmen.

Just an FYI - a few of us were out at the bufador this afternoon and we left our vehicle unlocked. We were within sight of it but below on the beach. Two of the guys kept an eye on it from the beach while the rest of us had a short stroll. Some one came up to the far side of the vehicle, opened the door and out of one backpack, stole a new IPhone 7, and from another pack, stole a wallet. It was a quick snatch and run. No one saw anything. There were other valuables in the packs and in the vehicle but only the couple things at the top of the packs closest to the door on the side away from the beach were taken. Lock your vehicles, even if you think it's safe. What a way to almost ruin a few friends holiday.
