Mexican Riviera Cruise Day 7

Day 7: March 20th, 2009 - Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

We slept for a bit longer this morning – 7:30 a.m. and met everyone for breakfast. The ship was already anchored in Cabo San Lucas. We caught a tender boat off the ship at 9:15 a.m. and were taken to the marina. Once again the weather was perfect! We walked part of the way around the marina looking at all the vendors and saying “no, gracias” a lot. When the kids started getting tired we found a man to take us on a boat ride and drop us off at the main beach. He took us out in his glass bottomed boat to the famous arch and by lover’s beach where we saw more sea lions, birds, and some tropical fish. He dropped us off at the main beach and arranged a time to pick us up. We hung out on the beach for the rest of the morning and Sadie got her hair braided for $8. We went to a beachside restaurant for lunch and I had some wonderful tacos Cameron con queso (shrimp tacos with cheese). After lunch we played in the water for a bit longer and then our ride showed up. We hopped in the boat and were taken back to the marina. We did some more shopping along the marina and Jen bought all of the kids a frozen juice bar. Before we got on the boat Jim’s dad (Jerry) gave Jen and I silver bracelets that he had bought for us. Mine had dolphins on it. We grabbed a tender boat back to the ship at about 2:30 p.m. and went to our rooms for a rest. It was the second formal night and so we took the kids up to Camp Carnival for dinner. After dinner Sadie got to watch the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks, and then she got to have a party where they made hats and danced around. Meanwhile the adults had a quiet dinner and hung out in the casino for a bit. We then went to a late night comedy show featuring Jerome. He was very funny. We picked up Sadie at 11:30 p.m. – she was still awake but tired (as were Jim and I) so we all went to bed. Gallery.
