Vacation Time!

Spent our last day like our first, sunnin', readin', and drinkin' by the pool. Just returned from our "last supper" on the beach. Place was packed. Took a full two hours. But hey, it don't get much more romantic than that. Watched a pretty good fireworks show off the next point E of us. Well done. Don't know why it went off, but we're glad it did. Finished up our shopping by buying a painted tile, already framed, sunset picture for our bedroom. Packed up almost everything except what we'll need in the am. Fixin' to read some more before calling it a night. Probably can't get any college futbol games on our lame tv. Sent a text to Nick telling him he has 24 hours to our return. He has a house to clean, we're sure of that. Night all. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPad Location: Camino Viejo a San Jose,Cabo,Mexico

Yesterday afternoon we saw our first clouds - cloud buddies. We took pictures to verify. They were gone just as quickly as they appeared. We spent the majority of the afternoon trying to get our land legs back. The boat trip did a number on our poor land lubber tummies. We went back downtown to shop and ate again at Desperados. We tried the rib eye steaks, but they weren't nearly as excellent as our first meal. We've already done the express checkout. Our air port shuttle leave at 0900 local tomorrow. Our flight is at 1300. Four hours to Charlotte. Two hour layover then a buck thirty to Indy. We arrive at 11:45 and by the time we park and get our luggage, the time change (roll back) is upon us. Planning our last evening here at the resort with dinner on the water. Not quite Capt's Cove, but a close second. Assuming the position for the remainder of our time here. See most of you all on Sunday. Craig - Posted using BlogPress from my iPad Location: Camino Viejo a San Jose,Cab

Just returned from a glass bottom boat tour of the Arco de Cabo - Land's End. Got up and out for the 10 o'clock departure. Although the boats take off every 30 minutes. For $12 per person, the boat picked us up on the beach, two hotels down. We had to hump it down to catch to ten boat. Sandy was huffing trying to keep up on loose sand at a 45 degree angle. Mountain goats probably could have performed better, but just barely. The trip took us down the beach, past the marina, and out to the Arco. There was one other couple on board with us, so it was almost a private tour. We saw pelicans, seals, the arch, the Pacific Window, Lover's Beach, Divorce Beach, divers, and lots of aweee (Kathy's word for fish). We beat Disney's Wonder cruise ship, and good thing too as the other couple said it's really crowded at their resort when the ships are docked. They are staying adjacent to downtown and are miserable there. They did go horseback riding yesterday and said it was a

Yesterday, I think was Wednesday. We spent the day at the pool. Ordered lunch there. It was not quite as hot and there was a nice 8-10 mph breeze. Because it felt cooler, we didn't realize the quantity of sun rays our bodies were cumulating. Needless to say, one of us has sun poisoning and the other has a big pink belly. My lack of wearing a shirt and not reapplying sunscreen means that I will now be wearing a shirt full time for the remainder of the trip. The big pink belly is tender but not miserable enough to keep me awake at night. We went downtown Cabo for dinner at Desperados. Kinda an old west style saloon meets sports bar. We had excellent food there and must recommend that to anyone who makes it to Cabo. We also watched college football while we ate. Brought about half of it back for breakfast this morning. Shortest night of sleep to date. Only got 10 hours (11 pm - 9 am). Although Sandy says she not getting very restful sleep - up several times a night. Oh yeah, I didn

So just outside the pool deck entryway from our hotel sits this giant chess/checkers game set. Of course I had to replace the king piece with myself. Sandy says I'll never know that it's good to be the king..... Pawn jumps queen. Rook jumps queen. Bishop jumps queen..... Ate dinner last night at Le Perla, two buildings down. Once again we have failed to eat a bad meal. Pa Jerry would be happy to eat in Cabo, as the restaurants don't even open until 6 pm. Back up and at the pool before 9 again this morning. Lots of chairs reserved, but not many people out. Yesterday was "lawn work" day. Sounds like they're finishing up this morning. Supposed to be cooler today, only reaching 88. Gave up on the observation deck altogether. Too hot. Need to be by the pool for cooler air and ample opportunities to get wet. I did notice that the times that say when each blog post is updated still reflects Indiana time and not Cabo time. Subtract 3 hours from each time stamp. Called

Immediately after my last post, we left the observation deck for the pool. It's cooler, but Sandy says that's a relative term. Smokin' Hot is my term. I had to move to the shade. Check out the photos. Our resident lush even has wet hair. You know it has to be hot for her to go underwater. Don't ask about the walrus that jumped into the pool and filled her ears. Ordered brick oven pizza pool side for lunch. Haven't left this spot all day except to heed Mother Nature's call. I hit the ocean twice. Powerful rip tide. Two cruise ships docked today, so we're staying put for dinner. That makes three we've seen this week. Yes, that's a bucket of beer. Here is a picture of Sandy going down the Shamu slide, yea right! The weather is here.....wish you were beautiful!!! - Posted using BlogPress from my iPad Location: Camino Viejo a San Jose,Cabo,Mexico

It's Tuesday morning sometime before 9 am. We've picked a spot away from the pools, overlooking the ocean. More of an observation deck, as we are not on the beach proper. Sandy is about 10 pages from finishing her second book. To date, no sun poisoning. She also would like to point out to Kathy that there are no cloud buddies. In fact, we have yet to see the FIRST cloud. Although Mr. Thermometer might only read low 90's, we have agreed that it's warmer here than Cancun. Must be our position relative to the sun. Our bet is that neither Kathy nor Shelby would require hoodies down here. Had breakfast served to our little table here yesterday. Self-portrait, as Sandy was in the pool. Not a typo. Even Sandy had to visit the pool about once an hour to cool off. Dinner last night was at Bella California, a restaurant here at the hotel. Sticking with our American Tourists costumes, Sandy had spaghetti and I had steak. Both were excellent! My steak could be cut with a fork, it
