We took a break from our usual Canadian Christmas and headed to Cabo San Lucas for the holidays to meet up with DawnO’s parents. All it took to convince me was the promise of warm weather and guacamole.
We’ve had a few days to explore the town and I have practiced my Spanglish while DawnO has been having full-blown conversations in Spanish with the locals. She is learning about the subtle nuances of the local geo-political climate and I am an expert in ordering things with cheese.
Yesterday we thought we’d have a healthier breakfast so I suggested we go for a smoothie. As I was pulling on my grande strawberry chocolate yogurt blend, DawnO took a series of pictures. One is of me, and the other is of the gym across the street featuring a woman with forearms bigger than my ambitions.
Here are a few of the sites we’ve explored, including a local beach and a ridiculously large Mexican flag.
Christmas morning we were supposed to meet up with a local waiter that DawnO sweet talked into taking us on a hike to Playa de Divorcio (Divorce Beach) and Playa del Amor (Lovers Beach) but he was unable to meet up with us. That wouldn’t stop us though! We soldiered on and created our own route, which included infiltrating a resort and then climbing over boulders to reach our destinations.
We took a boat back to the marina stopping by the picturesque rock arch. Not a bad way to spend Christmas morning.
