Cabo San Lucas

We love a get away at our house. My mom and Rick generously let us tag along on their Mexican vaca again. :). This trip we really just wanted to veg. Jon had been feeling pretty run down with his school & work schedule and I wanted a nice rest before the baby came so we headed out to California (for our friend Garrett's wedding) and then on to Mexico. We were able to spend a little time with Jon's parents, sisters and their families in California as well which was great.

The Resort
It was our first time in Cabo and the water was beautiful, temps were hot and the pool nice and cold. Jon liked the water slide at the resort, shocker I know. Only downer, they allowed people to smoke at the pool. Which is annoying for anyone that doesn't smoke but really annoying when you have a bun in the oven. My mom got super protective of the little guy and me and we kept moving around. :) She's such a good MaDeb.





Pool time
This is where we spent the majority of our time. Nice & relaxing.










"If you like pina coladas..."
We went to this restaurant quite a few times and they had the best pina coladas. They were huge and cheap. We pretty much had them every night.









The Crazy Waves
The first few days in Cabo, there were small waves but then three days in these huge waves started to roll in. It's kind of hard to see in the picture but the waves were a good 20 to 30 feet at times and would wash up to the hotel baring walls and they would sound like thunder. Really fun to watch.







Oh The Buses!!!!
The buses were crazy. They did not have shocks what so ever. So every tiny bump felt like a mountain but they were cheap and went where we needed to go.







Ice Cream...Yummy!
You can't go on vacation with my mom and not get ICE CREAM. Not going to lie it was way yummy :)






The Marina
One night we decided to cruise the marina, which turned into being stalked by every restaurant to eat there. But we still had a good time.








Lovers Beach & Divorce Beach
I loved this place. It was right across the Sea of Cortez. But because of the crazy waves they could not bring the boats onto Lovers Beach so we decided to hike over the rocks (even my mom with her back and knee and Rick with his knee) to both beaches. It was beautiful! I loved the rock formations and amazing water. This lady loves a little adventure.

Walking the Streets
Most nights after dinner we walked the streets of Cabo which was a nice way to get a little exercise and see the city. Don't worry we would eventually catch the bus back....this pregger lady would get tired! :)
