Oct 7 Anza Borrego desert state park

After saying our farewells to the very kind Kory and Fatima, we contined on into the desert. The remainder of our descent into the Imperial Valwley was fast and fun, other than for some headwinds. In the town of Westmoreland we ate lunch at a small taqueria where only we could not speak Spanish. The cook was extremely kind and good natured, making our stop in this tiny town a pleasure. We then rode on through the farms of the Imperial Valley, everywhere passing aquaducts bringing Colorado river water to this otherwise parched land, turning desert into a lush oasis of iceberg lettuce.
