See these lights on our Airstream? Pretty, huh?? Well, there will be none of that. And that big water spot under the Airstream due to a leaky connector? None of that also. You see, we are going dry camping this Read more…
I don’t know if it’s the weather or what… but it’s confession time once again here at Mali Mish. You see, I have a secret to share. About our bathroom situation. Actually, not just one secret, but two. I’ll start Read more…
Our cat Yoda is doing fairly well on our road trips. She doesn’t mind the drives too much nor the confined space of the trailer. But she always needs a few hours to adjust when we first get settled into Read more…
I have a confession to make. I cover up the gaucho seat and dining area with blankets. Because of this thing. A thing called a toddler. But I can’t put all the blame on her. She doesn’t really make TOO Read more…
We ended up camping at the San Mateo Campground in San Onofre during New Year’s week for 5 nights. If I had to rate this campground, I would probably give it just an average score. We haven’t been to too many sites so far with the Mali Mish Airstream but Catalina State Park in Tuscon, The Shady Dell in Bisbee and El Capitan State Beach just outside of Santa Barbara are still my top three campgrounds so far. And if these are my references, San Mateo is just “alright”.

This week we are finally back on the road again. This time, we are headed down to the border of San Diego and Orange County to camp at San Onofre State Beach. Actually, the beach campsites are closed in the winter time so we settled for San Mateo Campground a mile inland from the beach. I know, it’s difficult.
These two might be long gone from the famous prison… But not these poor folks. ATTENTION! THIS JUST IN!! These three inmates have just escaped from prison. They were last seen heading west toward California. Possibly to San Onofre. The Read more…

WiFi hot spots are one way for a road tripper to get online. But there are obvious limitations with it as discussed in a previous post as part of this ongoing RV Web series. One of the more widely available broadband option is likely right inside your pocket as we speak. Your phone.
With today’s smartphones like the Apple iPhone, Palm Treo or Blackberry, many of the Web tasks can be easily and quickly done directly from the phone. Email, SMS, IM and even Web browsing are possible with some of the latest mobile browsers. One of the best features on today’s smartphones has to be mapping tools such as Google Maps.
We’ve blogged a lot about our stay in Bisbee, AZ. It really is a lovely little old mining town that we love visiting. As we are about to wrap up a series of posts from our 10-day Arizona trip, I want to give you another photo tour of the cool little RV park called The Shady Dell.
This is their famous mural on the street side of the office wall that greets visitors as they pull into the campground.
