• Segway Austin – A Great Girlfriend Getaway

  This year two of my lifelong girlfriends and I all celebrated a milestone birthday – yep, 29 AGAIN – but we deemed it significant enough to warrant a girlfriend’s getaway.

  The 800-mile long desert and mountain wilderness of the Baja California peninsula was first colonized nearly 300 years ago by the Jesuit missions, but suffice it to say that large swaths of the landscape haven’t changed much over time.
