Getting Acquainted


Attended the obligatory time share presentation at the Mayan Palace; free breakfast; some certificates for free dinners; free dinner cruise; one thousand pesos for shopping. (One hundred pesos is (give or take) equivilent to about eight dollars.) Then we were off to do our own thing. First stop the grocery store for a few supplies for sandwiches etc. then back to our resort; short ride on the golf cart (used to transport people from their rooms to other areas of the resort) to visit and explore the main swimming pool area. The pool had a swim up bar and restaurant close at hand with several waiters to take orders and who would gladly receive your tips.........very nice atmosphere to relax in.
Back in our room we made ourselves a yummy veggie sandwich for dinner.......full of all kinds of veggies and cheese......too fat to get our mouth around but tasted delicious!
We watched the sunset from our balcony, played a few games of dice, read for a while then off to bed; a tiring day.........(February 29, 2012)

We're On Our Way

Up before the birds, hop the shuttle to Seattle, board Alaska and fly off to some warm weather, sunshine and soothing sounds of the ocean washing up on the sand..........sounds heavenly and it will be I'm sure!
Thanks Robin for giving us a place to park our vehicle, a bed for the night & getting up so early to drive us to catch the bus.
Plane left on time; arrived on time; flight was good; all went without a hitch until we hit the airport in Los Cabos where the 'body snatchers' grabbed us.....that's the name they have given to the people who pounce on you as soon as you come through the door at the airport........they make commission from all the people they can entice to attend a time share presentation. Once we got through that we got our transportation to the resort in Cabo San Lucas..........a beautiful accomodation for our stay in Mexico.........(February 28, 2012)
