After a rough 2011, for both Sarah and I, this year is one that we wanted to fill with adventure, laughter and fresh starts. We had already traveled throughout China, so even though we are both up for anything, our work schedules and hectic lives dictated only a short adventure. But it still managed to meet all our requirements. After a few suggestions/options, we narrowed it down to Cabo San Lucas in hopes of guaranteed good weather, gorgeous beaches and a possible chance to see Justin Bieber (to brag to my 6yr. old niece) and George Clooney (to brag to my 56yr (ish) old Mom)!! I have been to Mexico only once before, Cancun, and I do not know if it was that I was much younger, had longer, blonder hair, was considerable less travelled, or ... read more

Acupuncture this morning. We will see later today if it helped my ankle or not. end of trivia and then changed to go ashore. Got VIP tender tickets so it did not matter when we went down. Walked around the town and shopped a little. Not much there but tourist crap. Spent an hour and came back to the ship. Toni and i accepted cold water and a cold towel in the line and then showed our key card- guard told us we were trying to get on the wrong ship - it was the celebrity line. We laughed and found the right place! Spa and more trivia. changed for dinner and more trivia! Late dinner and bed. Ankle started hurting after dinner. Can't decide if i should do more acupuncture or not.... read more

Arriving early in the morning to Cabo San Lucas the day was bright, clear and very hot. Boarding one of the ferries to get to port with the rest of the crew we just loved Cabo with happy smiling locals everywhere. We wandered the streets buying souvenirs and rum and Cuban cigars. Coronas were 2 bucks each so large numbers were consumed sitting in the shade of a local cantina. We had planned only a half day in Cabo so after lunch it was back to the boat for a relaxing day by the pool. ... read more

After having stayed in two all inclusive places and a time share this past week along with ducking into town on occasion, we feel like we can provide a glimpse of Cabo, so, here’s the down and dirty on Cabo San Lucas according to the Binkley’s. When you last heard from our traveling heroes, they were describing some of the activities and antics that we shared with our good friends Art and Deb. Cabo is not exactly our cup of tea, but we would not want to miss an opportunity to hang out with Art and Deb. This past Saturday they reluctantly boarded a flight back to the States. In the meantime, we moved up the beach to an all-inclusive resort. Cabo seems to cater to Americans and Canadians. Want to experience the real Mexican culture? ... read more

A traveler without observation is a bird without wings. Moslih Eddin Saadi Cabo…..it has a lot going on considering that it is at the end of a peninsula and the next stop is quite a ways off. There’s whale watching, sport fishing, sun seeking, tequila drinking, shopping and great seafood. Whatever floats your boat. Art and Deb are great friends that we joined on vacation this week and they have been in mourning because five years ago they purchased a time-share condo at a small, quaint property with lots of charm. When they were vacationing here in December they were informed their building was going to be torn down and they would be required to move to the new high-rise property that was being built next door. On this trip we are in the new building ... read more

Again I was up at 5AM, I love watching the ship coming into port. The sun is not up yet so all you can see is the lights as we come in slowly to anchor at 6:24. Since this port is small there is no place to dock so we had to take a tender from the ship. We were anchored by the spectacular arched rocks of Los Arcos where the cool Pacific waters merge with the Sea of Cortez. This area was once attached to mainland Mexico. Millions of years ago a vast crack in the San Andreas Fault created the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific rushed in severing the peninsula from the mainland. We left the ship around 8AM and I was very excited to see a sea lion as we came into ... read more

First of all apologies for delay in posting blog and photo's for the last few days as I have had trouble with Internet acces on the Ship. Photo's are now available for all days. When we awoke today we were already anchored at our final port of Cabo San Lucas and got a glimpse of the rocky area and the town in the distance as we had to get tender boats to this port. We had a quick breakfast and we headed down to the Princess Theatre to await our call. Today we were going on a Zodiac boat which is an inflatable dinghy to do some whale watching. Another fine and sunny day with temps around 27 degrees although it was a bit cool in the morning. We were supposed to be at sea for ... read more
