Wednesday - 11 February 2015 - Cabo San Lucas, Mexico


Up and walking by 5:40 am -- had the place to myself for about 20 minutes.  Soon  other walkers, the sunrise-photo-taking-set, and the crew readying the tenders arrive.  We are scheduled to be in Cabo from 7:00 am to 1:00 pm.

Fishing Boats Leaving Port in Early Morning!

Phil and I are off the tender in port by 7:20 am on a beautiful morning -- just as the place is waking up.   Cabo San Lucas is a haven for eating, drinking and fishing.   We come to Captain Tony's -- with wifi and coffee -- looks good.  After an hour of checking and responding to e-mails we feel the need for a walk. 

Pat in Cabo -- early morning.






By the time we leave -- everything is open.  Strolling around the harbor we pop into some of the shops -- all the same stuff.   Pharmacies are plentiful here -- selling drugs that need a prescription in the U.S.   Amidst all the boats in the marina we notice a  sea turtle popping his head up periodically.   The pelicans are everywhere waiting for the fishing boats to come back with their catch.

Walking back towards the tender dock -- we again stop into Captain Tony's where we sample their homemade guacamole -- Phil gets a Margarita.   The guacamole is delicious --- the young man who makes it tableside is delightful.   A traveling troupe of musicians stops by to serenade us -- all very touristy but fun.

The tender ride back to the ship brings us through a very active harbor of fishing boats returning to port  -- sea lions are following the boats, some even snag a ride on the back swim platforms.

Back on the Statendam by 12:30 pm -- no lunch today.  I work on the blog, download photos and read.   By late afternoon -- I'm not feeling great so I decide not to go to dinner.  Phil brings me some cheese and crackers from the Lido -- perfect.  I think my body is telling me I need a rest from all the food I've been eating.

Thanks for Reading!
