Blogs from Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur, Mexico, North America - page 7

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

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

It's magical, with great views and clean beaches. In Cabos you could find great resorts and small boutique hotels for privacy and five star service, be aware since it's there where the Hollywood Celebrities stay as a regular get away for them. ... read more

Thursday! Soo…I just walked into the lobby and figured the internet would be back up. Guess what…it’s not. But I’m writing this post on Thursday…so I’m actually caught up for a change. So I woke up at 6 when my family was getting ready for fishing, then I woke again around 9, then slept on and off til 11. I was planning on going to the pool around 9am, but I still felt pretty awful. I had a mix of dizziness, a stabbing stomach pain, a backache, soreness from the horse, and just feeling gross once again. I ate the ham & cheese croissant that my family had gotten for me, and I took it easy and wandered down to the pool around 12pm. The weather was actually overcast for once, so it felt pretty good ... read more
