Finding some Banks beer in an Ontario liquor store. The Barbados brewery has started exporting to select areas in Canada, and while it’s certainly not the greatest beer I’ve ever tasted, coming across the familiar label—and then bringing a few home and cracking one open—did bring me back to my last trip to the island.

I loved Kira Salak’s story, The Bone Yard Stretch, which she told at The Moth, about traveling to Mozambique during the war.

This postcard of El Diego. We don’t get many postcards anymore. Getting one of this high quality from my traveling brother-in-law made my day.

A reading and slideshow at the San Diego REI store last night by National Geographic Adventure contributor Steve Casimiro. It was entitled “The Perfect Baja Road Trip” and, for a short while, Casimiro transported a small group of us down Baja’s Highway 1, to a land of rutted roads, cacti-filled valleys and empty beaches.
