Our trip to Mexico was a total vacation in every way, no cell phones, no debit cards, no email, and basically no contact while we were away. We stayed at an all inclusive resort in Cabo San Lucas and enjoyed great weather and met FABULOUS people. We ended up meeting a group from Nebraska and a couple from Indiana and we spent our days at the pool enjoying their company. We made a trip to the marina near by via water taxi (not my recommended mode of transportation to anyone!) We also took a catamaran trip which was great! We missed Tyler very much and were very glad when we made it home, we devoured a cheeseburger and fries in San Francisco while we waited for our connecting flight - we had missed our American food!
The resort had 3 infinity pools - this is one of the two smaller ones which had a swim up bar :)
This is where we spent our days, literally from 10am until anywhere between 4 and 6pm. The beach was literally over the edge of our pool. We could watch all the vendors from the safety of our pool :)
This is Faby and Fernando. Fernando served us every day we were there and he treated our group very well :)
A few drinks in we all posed for this, Sable one of the girls from Nebraska pointed out that this was not Fernando's first rodeo :) I can only imagine how many people have this picture :)
Jason, Sable, Jenna, Nick, Sara, Lauren, Andrew and John. This was the Nebraska group.
On our first day we watched a couple wade into the pool and then proceed to "bob" in it literally the entire time they were there. We wondered what that was all about. They didn't swim, didn't really even move, they didn't even drink (we offered one to them) they just bobbed with their heads above water. They did it the next day too and by then John and Amber from Indiana had joined us and were also wondering what the bobbing was all about. Well we found out. Its warm under the water. Once you get out it is a bit windy and you get cold for a bit before the sun warms you back up. The group became expert bobbers.
John and Amber, Indiana, had just been married and were on their honeymoon. John is a police officer so we had a bunch of fun listening to his stories and doing "worry-free" sobriety tests :)
The first day we went to the marina we did not bring our camera. Thank goodness because our water taxi all but threw us in the ocean on our return trip! Anyway, while we were there we saw a yacht from Portland, Or... named MICK. (for those who do not know, my Dad's name is Mick) When we returned the back door was open so you couldn't see the "I" but you get the picture.
This photo is taken in front of the arch at Lands End, the most southern point of the
Baja Peninsula. Our catamaran trip was great, we motored up the coast line, stopped for a BBQ lunch and did some kayaking before returning back to the marina.
