Hotel Bahia Cabo San Lucas

... not that the price was good but it was considerably cheeper than it would have been otherwise. Tying up at the dock always comes with showers, and that is always a welcome advantage! <br><br>We've eaten some delicious local cuisine and have had one or two margaritas/beers. Kevin apparently was paying better attention during spanish class then he let on because he is whipping out the spanish left and right! Kevin and Zach have ...

... was actually under 50 pounds! It was about a 4 hour flight down to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, so we arrived there at about 10:30 in the morning to get our hotel shuttle to Royal Solaris. As soon as we arrived, we were met by sunshine, drinks, and Freddy. Freddy was our members services representatives, and one of the coolest guys I have ever met! He sat us down, told us about our week and the activities....and when he asked "is there anything else I can do for you ladies?" I piped in ...

... a fish and feeding them three shots. Our Bachelor got caught, and it made for a good time. Escaping The Gigglin' Marlin then became a priority, so we headed across the street for some live rock n roll at Cabo Wabo Cantina. Cabo Wabo was a great spot, providing lots of bar space, and a huge dance floor. After paying homage to The Red Rocker, Sammy Hagar, we had to call it a night.

... up a few items before leaving Cabo. So we returned to our car and drove off realizing we had a flat tire. We were really ****** off because at first we thought someone had punctured it on purpose but that was not the case as we found out later. It took us awhile to change the tire and it was the first time we used our new 'jack'. We were in a busy area and most everyone that walked by always tried to help us ...

... docked at 8am. Not sure what happened, but needless to say, with all the other "cruisers" we could not spot our beloved friends. We even went so far as to walk the strip calling out "Carolyn?"...."Jouni?"...."Where are you?". Unfortunately there was never a reply. We checked back into the port several times but never did get to see them. We'll catch you next time guys, next time. In between stops to the ...

... until we found La Jolla Beach Camp. At only $9 USD, we couldn't say no. We had prime beach parking, bathrooms and piping hot showers that were fed from natural hot springs. The water was a tad salty, but at least it was hot. The following morning (Jan 19) Mike met the owner of the campsite, Mr. Pabloff, who's family were Russian immigrants to Mexico in the late 1800's. Mr. Pabloff purchased the beach front land in the ...

... from North Carolina were led to become missionaries. While trying to find their place, they travelled to Monterray Mexico to visit a friend who was in mission work there and while there were approached by a deaf child begging in the streets Lucas and Miriam had a child who was 85% deaf and so identified with the pitifulness of this poor child. They set out to the Baja of Mexico with no money and no backing. They heard about a ...

Well the highlight of Mexico was the hostel in El Sauzel near Ensendad. After wandering around the village streets for a hour and nearly getting attacked by 5 massive dogs, red hair is strange in Mexico and calling the hostel from some house - Maria came out to find me. I was delighted to see this stranger as my bag pack now weighed twice as heavy, remembering I am carrying tortilla makers for mother hen round the country. Well Maria's, backpacker ...

... I pulled up a chair to the rail with some people and pretty sat and relaxed watching the land disappear for a really long time. I guess until the life boat alarm went off. Okay, Ill I have to say about the life boat drills is that they are pretty much the worst thing everrr. Even ignoring that my back went out in the middle and agirl behind me almost throwing up all over me...it was still pretty bad. I am not looking ...

What an absolutely fantastic wedding--a party by the poolside that lasted five days. The weather was perfect and there were so many friends (over 200) to catch up with (or meet). Lots of drinks by (or in) the pool, dancing--on the beach, by the pool and at Cabo Wabo in town--, fiestas, endless eating, sunning, backgammon, and chilling out. This was the holiday from my holiday that I needed, although I somehow ended up getting less than seven hours of ...
