Cabo San Lucas, September 2012

Time for some sun and fun.....
We had a timeshare week we needed to use before  the end of the year, so thought we would
go somewhere HOT....well, not really Gary's idea but what could he say when I planned
it as a surprise for our birthdays and anniversary.  Yes, it was hot and humid plus we had
a tropical storm the day after we got there.  



The condo was right on the beach with several swimming pool bars and eateries.  Gary is waiting for breakfast and that was the beach bar area before the storm.  
This was the place to be during the day.....it didn't hurt to have Happy Hour
every afternoon.  Gary wasn't always in the pool....he did have to take an his
afternoon nap and did some reading in the air conditioned room. 

Our view from the top of the condo.
Yes, he did buy a t-shirt.  It was a lesson in saying NO most of the time.
The first day we took advantage of the nice beach and some refreshments to stay cool.
This is the same area after the storm...no more bar hut or lounges.  They worked on this area for the 
rest of the week rebuilding and cleaning up the mess.  We never did get to go to the beach Mexican Fiesta that week.  Oh well, we found a lot of good restaurants and the weather cleared up.
Lunch by the pool....nachos, beer and sangrias.
We got hooked at the airport, and signed up to hear a timeshare pitch our first day (something we said we would NEVER EVER do again)
We did see another lovely resort but after two hours,
we said NO.  However, we did get our freebies which included the Caborey dinner cruise on
the above boat.  Good food, drinks, and entertainment cruising the bay for 3 hours. In addition, we received the glass bottom boat tour to the Arch and $100 dinner voucher.....so I guess it was worth 
our time.  
We told them we were celebrating our anniversary, so this was our dessert.
Pelican Rock
Lover's Beach (on bay side).....on the other side is Divorce Beach (Pacific side and very rough)




A nice ending to our trip....didn't feel like walking back to condo, so we hopped on this bicycle taxi.
Enjoyed a nice ride through town....our driver never stopped pedaling!
