We could hardly wait for vacation - since we hadn't taken one in Feb., we were MORE than ready for a break from work! Our flight was Saturday morning at 8:20 and we were planning on driving up Saturday morning - luckily Glenn decided he wanted to drive up Friday night to get an adjustment from Jessi before we headed out - it was definitely the right decision as about 8:30 than night I got a text from Teller County stating the pass was closed and the text to say it was back open? Not till 6:30 the next morning - yikes - that wouldn't have worked for us!
The first stop after check in and breakfast? Of course - Caribou Coffee - nothing better than to start your vacation the right way!
We had a direct flight to Cabo and landed in Terminal 3 - 45 minutes later Cindy and Rene' were due to land in Terminal 2 and our agreement was to meet at the rental car place which is offsite of the airport - it all worked out beautifully!! The "Cactus" rental car company had just moved into a new building and Glenn and I were the FIRST clients to walk through the door - no we didn't win a door prize or anything fun though!! Soon Cindy and Rene were there and we were off to paradise!
Sorianos is a grocery store/hardware/sporting goods/clothing store and we stopped there to stock up on a few groceries, snacks and liquor - a must for any tropical vacation! The SUV suddenly seemed a whole lot smaller as we loaded $150 worth of stuff into the car, mainly around Cindy and I's feet!!
45 minutes later we found Casa Dina and our host Duke greeted us and gave us the tour of the house and grounds - we were amazed at the property - a beautiful fully stocked house right on the ocean with everything imaginable inside!! The garage was full of any outside things you might need: fishing poles, noodles for the water, snorkel equipment, ice chests, you name it!!
I started snapping pictures and just couldn't stop as the setting was gorgeous! I knew we were going to have a great week in this beautiful house!
Dinner than evening was at Tia Pablo's - Duke had driven us around the town and pointed out the places to eat dinner - this place was having 1/2 priced pork meals that night so Rene' chose it for the first night - great drinks and a great meal - 2 complete pork meals, beers and a pina colada for me and the bill wasn't even $20.00 - I was impressed!
