The Wind and the Calm

Even though we had windy days, we also had an extremely calm day while Jill was here!!  It's always nice to have a breeze but sometimes wind gets tiresome!!  We enjoyed just spending time together, walking the beach, reading, and sun bathing!


Jill decided she wanted to get in when the waves were crashing!!  I chose NOT to!!  But she enjoyed it!

Wednesday we had a perfect calm day!!  So Jill and I took the double kayak out - we did great getting it out without falling in the water and it was perfect out there kayaking!  We went out twice even and it was SO FUN!!!!   We also swam together in the ocean - we walked down in front of the hot springs hotel and there were places in the water that were very warm from the springs - that was neat!!

It's fun to take the stairs up to the rooftop!  The views are awesome from up there and it's a great place if you want to catch some rays!


The last night before she left, we had decided to go to the beach bar, El Gecko!  Since we were all cleaned up and looking good, we had Glenn take our picture! 


Glenn and Jill decided to do a tequila shot before we headed out!!  We should have bought some shot glasses as there are NONE in this place!!

It's a long ways to El Gecko as it's on the other end of Los Barriles but we made the best of it as we all 3 squeezed on the ATV!!!  Jill ordered a mango daiquiri and I ordered a banana daiquiri - which I won't have to order again as I didn't care for it!!  And for their Happy Hour, they just bring you 2 drinks at once!!!

The  table side guacamole was excellent as usual and our food was good too!  We even had the honor of listening to a strolling mariacha band!  Glenn was his usual crazy self so we all got a laugh out of him!

Oh and I almost forgot - on our way to the beach bar, we saw dolphins jumping out in the ocean - so cool!!!   We stopped and bought tortillas for Jill to take home and unfortunately she had to pack that night so we could head to the airport in the morning!!

What an awesome time having her here!!
