Monday....Morning

Good Morning!
After my last post, my husband decided he'd try a different approach to morning time.... This morning I woke up to him lovingly gazing into my eyes as he said "Good Morning my beautiful princess....Yes, you're still on your Mexican dream vacation..... Im hungry...." Consolation prze.... I still don't have to cook! I love this place. And, yes again, Im not allowed to carry my plate, move a chair or pick up my napkin until its on my lap... OHHH the life..... We woke up a little early this morning. We figured out yesterday that ALL the good spots at the pool are taken by 7 am.... So Travis set an alarm so we could get up on time and go claim our place on Board Walk (that is the good piece of property in Monopoly...right? Its got to be at least 10 years since I've played that.... and speaking of 10 years, I feel old saying that. For me to be old enough that something could have actually happened 10 years ago..... SCARY!) Anyway....back to vacation..... (sorry, I get a little side tracked..)

So, we got our primo spots. The spot right next to the pool where the sun won't ever be shaded by a tree until it goes down. Speaking of going down....Its kinda cold here.. Its gorgeous ALL day long, but as soon as the sun start thinking of going down, the pool water cools off, everyone kinda high-tails it out of the pool area and it gets cold. The worst part is, the pool water is cooling off and you can feel it, but you know as soon as you step out of the water its gonna be REALLY cold when the cooling air hits your wet skin.... (though not anything near what it is in the Great Northwest... but compared to the sunny 90 during the day....COLD!)

So today will be filled with.... What I hope to be a lot of nothing, but I think Travis had his fill of nothing yesterday. He's ITCHING to go do something. I think that finding something to eat at times is too much work.. You gotta actually get up...find a restaurant that is open..... SOO much work. We plan on re-visiting Todos Santos and having margaritas and shrimp chilli-relenos at Tequilla Sunrise. We're hoping our names are still written on the wall, but I've got a sneaky suspision that guy might re-paint every year..... He's got to use that "leaving a piece of your soul" line on just about everyone and as of September last year the only bare spots were on the ceiling. Also heard that the dinner cruises are fun, you get to see the Sea Lions, but aparently you SMELL them long before you see them.

Travis was contemplating scuba diving, but in our one quest of yesterday, walking 100 yards to the ocean he decided the water just might be too cold. I'm a little glad at that. I wanted him to go and have a good time, but I also didn't want him to leave me for 5 hours on 2 days..... Maybe next time we come down we'll bring friends/family...someone to entertain me so he can go off scuba diving.

Well, its now 8am and we're off to slather up with Sunscreen (I got a little confident in my base tan and I got burned yesterday, so today Im actually gonna wear some and....reapply throughout the day!) change into swimming suits and try again at this relaxation stuff. We'll be pros by weeks end.

Speakng of weeks end, I reazlized yesterday Im minus two days to my trip and started having a small panic attack at the thought of actually leaving. So far we've had a terrific time and Im not ready for it to be only 5 days left.... We'll post again tonight... photos and stories of our day. Wish you all were here!

I really hope this princess thing doesn't go to your head... you realize the only reason you the princess is because you are paying them to think that, right?? I can't bought as cheaply! ;o)
