We had a nice 2 bedroom unit with a nice sized living area
and balcony overlooking the inside of the resort. In fact,
there was even 3 full bathrooms.
|
|
Also a nice kitchen area. Only convenience lacking was
a dishwasher. It worked out thou, Dad filled in nicely :).
|
|
The view off the balcony over the bay area. On the other
side of those mountains is the 'pacific' side where the
waves are much larger. Things stay calm over here for the
most part.
|
|
Panning to the right you can see the other side of the resort
and some of the pools and lounge areas below.
|
|
This is the upper pool area at the resort. The canopy
you see on the far right is above the area where they have
their nightly dinner & show. Aspiring performers that work
at the resort put on the show, so it's not exactly professional
but still entertaining.
|
|
We went to the little shopping area right outside the resort to
pick up a few things. I found Zucosos to be a really cool name
for a cereal, so I took a picture of it.
|
|
Cute little shopping carts, slight larger than the kiddie cards you'll
find at some of the grocery stores in the U.S. Again, I was very amused.
|
|
Lots of water activities... parasailing, jet skiing, etc... Of course,
all was more expensive than I would want to pay, well, maybe for the jet
ski's, those are fun. However, the water was still pretty cold so we
opted to stay dry.
|
|
We took a glass-bottom boat over to Lover's/Divorce beach.
We figured since the water was colder than any of us wanted
to bear for snorkeling we'd opt for the next best. Still
doesn't compare really, but it was interesting at least.
|
|
Sneak a peak thru to the pacific.
|
|
Here's the arch thing that you'll see in many of the cabo postcards
and such. According to the water taxi every 3 years the tide is low
enough that the beach shows and you can walk on dry land under the arch.
I haven't figured out exactly why that is, alignment of the sun & moon
I guess?
Of course, it looks more interesting with sand under it so that's what you
always see in the advertisements.
|
|
Some kids were having fun playing in the waves on Divorce beach. Divorce
beach is on the pacific side where the waves are big. Lover's beach is
nice and calm as it's on the other side.
|
|
We took a dinner cruise. The food was ok, nothing exceptional. It did
give us a good tour of the pacific side, all the way to the lighthouse
where we went on ATV's the next day. We stayed out until just after
sunset.
|
|
The beach in the morning.
|
|
We took an ATV tour around up to the light house. It took about
20-30 minutes to get there, then we had a good couple hours to play
around on the sand dunes there. It reminded me of the dunes on the
way to San Diego and the people out riding on those.
|
|
Here's Al, attempting to get out of the circle thing. It looks
as thou you ought to be able to go spin around it easily, but
getting stuck is easier.
|
|
My folks & myself sitting up on the old light house. I must
say, the ATV's were very fun.
