A ridiculously long sentence, even lacking the final punctuation.

I just got this from Jackie today:
Hey Everyone, Well the last week of our trip has been absolutely amazing. We spent 3 or 4 days in a place called Bahia Concepion or conception bay. If ever you are on the Sea of Cortez side of the Baja I strongly recommend checking out this bay. The sunsets and snorkelling were fabulous as well as we were able to camp on the beach in a fairly secluded area (only us and the people we were travelling with were on our beach) for only $ 5.00 a day. Enough cant be said to describe this gorgeous area. After leaving Conception Bay we drove to Lorreto but found the beaches and campgrounds to be highly overrated so we left that afternoon and drove to San Juanico aka Scorpio Bay. This is by far my favorite place yet. We are back on the pacific side so the water is cooler, the weather is much less humid and there is amazing surfing. People are here from all over, and all claim that this is one of the best spots in Mexico for surfing. Cole and I spent 3 hours so far today surfing and will still go out this afternoon for another. I am strating to get on waves more regularily and had numerous locals (most from california that have moved here for the surfing) give me pointers. Everyone we have encountered for the duration of the trip so far have been super nice and helpful. We are still struggling to learn spanish but are making vast improvements everyday. Anyways I am going to get going, I think we are spending at least a week here and then off to Todos Santos for a new surf spot. I hope everything is going great with everyone.

Is it wrong to hate them a little bit?????
-
no, I can't think of many things i'd rather be doing than sitting at home reading about comparative politics.... oh wait, ya, i'd rather be in Mexico
-
I don't know man, comparative politics sounds pretty sweet!!!
-
I miss Cole and Tom
-
Oh punctuation, thank you Jackie, thank you, it all makes sense.
-
well for starters fuck you Steve j/k
we saw two turantulas one right out side the womens washroom (yeah I hang out there alot) and the other one was absolute massive I saw just by moonlihght while driving it was giant anywho we are still in scorpion bay surf has died down a little but it is still a beautiful place and in mexico the sell like a liter of distilled sugarcane spirts (26%alc by vol) for a whopping 20 pesos thats 2 dollars folks I love mexico but I sure could go for a good spliff right about now 16days and counting <sigh> life is tough

and our awsome of road car no it didnçt get stuck and we still have our oil pan
-
what you jerks don´t reply or what
sooo spent the last day sick as shit even the water I drink comes straight out of my ass in like 2 minutes it was absolutly awful and I sharted in my pants thats right I said it I sharted in my pants
-
We don't judge at the gongshow. Did you wash the pants and keep them? I would recomend you not tell people you meet that you shit your pants.
-
Why wash them, just turn them inside out and it will dry and flake off at some point.
-
that's mildy distrubing, but very true. Live your life Cole, don't let anyone hold you down.. you strut your stuff in your shit-ridden pants.
-
Don't worry Colezy, i think we have a bigger problem...... Jaron, would you care to explain??
-
hahaha, What can I say, when you live in Lethbridge you need to liven things up by throwing wild and crazy dirty moustache parties. Part of the fun was to take close up pictures without smiling. I just hope everyone enjoys!!!!
It was good times, especially when the guy throwing it made all the chicks wear fake ones haha
-
Happy Birthday Cole, I miss you and Jackie. I hope that you are having an awesome time! Love Lindsay

palm of my hand) and that was 6 weeks ago she has
survivrd another near drowning in a swimming pool her
head slammed in the car door (yes I felt awful) and a
15 km trip at 90 km/h somewhere under the car and
though I never liked cats befor we will be bring her
back wether legally or illeagaly
