Baja 1/21/10



















What a trip! This is the Cabo of the travel guides, the Cabo we all think of when we think of Baja. Truly, I did not have great expectations of our 'glass bottom boat' trip... I remember the same kind of boats in Hawaii, and they are just boxes in the floor of the boat. And actually, this was the same kind of boat! But, the big difference was the wonderful rest of the trip... saw the famous landmarks at 'lands end'... Baja rock, The Arches, Honeymoon Beach, Pirates Cave, the 'window from Sea of Cortez to the Pacific Ocean'. Never mind the fact that you didn't need the glass bottom of the boat, you could look right over the side of the boat to see the fish, sea bottom, and scuba divers that were right along side our boat. The day was perfect on the water, and the color so amazing, I went crazy with the camera! After the cruise, we had a 'freebie' drink at Hooters (very Mexican doncha know?) which of course led to lunch! After resting from our big adventure, we headed into Cabo for a little sightseeing and shopping. Most shops are very small little mom/pop kind of ventures, and all very tourist directed. Streets are narrow, and cars park every direction and drive like mad down the streets. We took cabs to and from the rv park, just to avoid the parking. We were all really happy with our excursion on the water and the trip to town. I haven't included my pictures of Dustin skivie dipping, but he made a great trip over the boat edge, into the sea and over to the rocks at "lands end".
happy trails...
