Military check points are a normal part of travelling in many countries outside the US. They can be a little unsettling at first, given the language barrier, but they are there for the traveler’s and local’s protection. Here in Baja, they are looking for guns and drugs being transported. Since we don’t have either, the periodic inspections just make for another opportunity to meet new people and make new friends. The Wee Rover loves the extra attention she gets at these stops, everyone wants their picture taken with her!
