Feb 22nd – Cabo San Lucas



We sailed into the bay at Cabo San Lucas about 11 am and were once again greeted by whales and dolphins!  How do they know we’re arriving?

It was a beautiful day but chillier that we expected. The tenders started taking folks to shore about noon and we left about 1 or 1:30.  Things sure have changed here in the past few years and the city seems to have quadrupled in size.  We spent about an hour walking around the port and then we headed back after saying “No, gracias” about 500 times!
While we were wandering around we ran into Doris and Ray.  She was ready to shop a little but Ray was ready to go back so he got in the tender line with us and we boarded the next boat.  Just then Doris arrived and the next thing we knew……Ray was getting off the tender and going up the ramp with Doris!!  She needed more money!  We couldn’t help but tease him at dinner about almost making a “clean getaway”!!!  We have had so many good laughs with those two dears!

Trivia today was 50/50!  Won once and didn’t win once!!  I have a shiny new pen!!  The sure do give cheap ship prizes!!!

This evening we went to one of the lounges to hear a member of the ship’s performing group sing a tribute concert for Whitney Houston.  She had done the same thing last week and we missed it so we got there early for a good seat.  While we were waiting Sailor Ed started talking to a couple seated in front of us because he heart the woman’s New YAWK accent!  Well, they started yakking about neighborhood’s, streets, high schools, etc.  Lots in common.  Then I asked her where she lives now and she said Concord, CA!
Haha….we live in Brentwood, yada yada.  The we AND………..her granddaughter is in Cally’s class!!!  Kaitlin Randall!  Such a small, small world.  We were all amazed.  They also have a connection to Carmel since they have a relative who owns or used to own the Lobos Lodge in Carmel!!

We will spend most of tomorrow here in Cabo and then sail out about 2pm.  Next stop will be our final one in LA on Saturday morning.

I had to spend some time in the medical center today.  Have another ear infection and it’s pretty painful.  I’m loaded up with Motrin to try and get some sleep.

Lots and lots of love….

  1. Oh no Mom! Sorry about the ear. I'll hope that it clears faster than your last one. So weird that you're even getting these infections.

    Why has Cabo grown tremendously I wonder? People going there because it's less gang infested or what?
