The switch 1966 is a historical event that took place during the Cold War. It refers to the change in the strategic location of US nuclear weapons in Europe. In the early 1960s, the US had stationed a significant number of its nuclear arsenal in bases across various Western European countries as a deterrence against the Soviet Union. However, by the mid-1960s, there were growing concerns about the vulnerability of these weapons to potential Soviet attacks. It was believed that the Soviet Union had developed more advanced missile systems that could potentially target these bases with more accuracy. This concern led to a reevaluation of the US nuclear strategy in Europe.
Say "Adios, Tulum," and "Hola, Todos Santos."
I think that was a result of the fact they didn t have a lot of access to tile in Baja it s a long way around and down the peninsula so people just pressed patterns into the concrete, and it was something that we used throughout the hotel. Fresh water flows over huge granite boulders along with a waterfall that cascades into a natural pool where you can take a refreshing swim at the end of the hike.
This concern led to a reevaluation of the US nuclear strategy in Europe. The switch 1966 refers to the decision made by the US government to withdraw its nuclear weapons from the bases in Western Europe and consolidate them in the continental United States. This decision was primarily driven by the desire to enhance the security of these weapons and reduce the vulnerability of US forces stationed in Europe.

En-route to San José del Cabo, you will visit El Triunfo (the Triumph), a town that once was the largest city in Baja.

The smokestack which towers above the landscape was part of the Progresso Mining Company. Wealth created from mining made the town a cultural center; what remains of that today is the piano museum, home to beautiful grand pianos, some of which are still undergoing restoration.
Then, along the way to Santiago you will readily view fields of mangos, corn, papaya, citrus and banana trees before reaching Santiago. Once in Santiago, stops include the natural spring, a visit to the mission site called Santiago de Los Coras and hiking. Hike the mountain range of the Sierra La Laguna that was traversed by indigenous people hundreds of years ago. Here the increased levels of rainfall create a unique biosphere.
