The only reason we came back to Cabo.... Doesn't that look tasty? The most wonderful dish on the face of the planet. I got the urge to try a chili relleno back home when going out to dinner with Mom and Gary one evening...GROSS. Nothing compares to this dish....and guess what... He gave me the recipe.... Kinda. I know whats in it... guessing the ammounts is up to me. Senior Miguel did tell me if I email him he'll send the actual recipe. Email is already written.....
The walls of Tequilla Sunrise are filled with signatures, "parts of our souls" that will beforever left at that restaurant.... Not a bare place left.
See, our names are still there!! On the right about 1/2 way down this picture!!
We woke up at 6 to get showered and ready for our trip. Had a light breakfast and waited in the lobby for our shuttle. They were late picking us up, but got here and we were on our way. We didn't realize it until this morning, but we booked this tour with a different company than last time. We got to Todos Santos and got to tour an old college for teachers. In it now is a museum and a community center for the locals. We got to see a small traditional house, made from the local vegitation. You'd be amazed, not 1 nail in the whole place. Beds are made out of wood frames with cow hide woven accrossed it. Our tour guide said "Mexican Orthopedic Bed". Amazing that people live that way compared to the luxury we have in the states. Makes you really appreciate what you have at home...and a little guilty for having the opportunity to go on vacation, when others don't even have running water.
After the college, we were taken to a small restaurant, where lunch was included in our tour.... We, along with 2 other couples on our tour bus politely declined, as we had other ideas for lunch. We were here, if we had to spend more on lunch somewhere else, how could we say no to Senior Miguel and the WORLDS best margaritas. Yes... I got the recipe for this too..... Dad, we'll hook you up!!
We had lunch then wandered in and out of some of the shops. Mostly the same tourist junk as last time. I did buy myself an apron from Tequilla Sunrise and asked Senior Miguel to sign it. He did so very graciously. One of the other couples told Travis... "Thats a damn good idea!" and promptly went over and got his own apron for Senior Miguel to sign.
I'll have to say, this time was just as good as last time....and he's still one of my favorite people on earth! Lunch and a few minutes talking with him was worth the crazy van ride down.
We got home about 3:30....Spent a few minutes in the pool to cool off and continued our new custom of Siesta's. Travis got some reading done for school. We showered, changed, went up to the lobby to post this and now its 8:30....We're going to find some dinner!
Having a wonderful time..... 3 full days and a few hours on Saturday left.....
P.S..... The best part of this trip... Not 1 person has asked us about a time share!!
Talk to you tomorrow!!!
