Cabo San Lucas - February 2012

We went to our timeshare in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico for a week at the end of February. It's one of our favorite places to travel, especially because we get to stay at the posh Hacienda Encantada resort.

AUBREY AT THE AIRPORT:

Aubrey is happy, but I am never happy going through security at an airport. It does seem to take longer with 3 kids.

OUR BALCONY AT SUNSET:

We saw many a beautiful sunset in Cabo from our balcony at Hacienda Encantada. One of the big reasons we love coming here is for that killer view.

THE POOL BAR:

Oh, we liked the pool bar. While we were there, I was counting with Lainy in German, "Eins, zwei, drei, vier, lift your cup and drink your ..." Elaina completed the song with "beer." I then told her we don't drink alcohol and she said,

"We don't drink alcohol, we drink chunky monkeys." That was our favorite non-alcoholic drink at the pool bar.

JUMPING IN THE WAVES ON PELICAN BEACH:

Every 6 or 7 years the sand builds up at Pelican Beach near El

Arco, and it makes for a great beach for the kids and good snorkeling. Laina loved jumping up and down in the surf.

EL ARCO WITH THE FAMILY:

We got all of us looking at the camera except for Aubrey, who is in the baby backpack.

THE KID ZONE:

Elaina and Seth are sliding down the slides at the playground at Hacienda Encantada. This was a great place to go when you didn't want the kids to get wet swimming.

NEIL, AUBREY, AND THE COMPUTER:

This how a parent bonds with his kids nowadays.

SILHOUETTES AT SUNSET:
Seth, Elaina and I all had to go look at the sunset from our balcony.

THE BALCONY:

The number one reason to come here is for the balcony and the view of the humpback whales breaching out of the water.

THE INFINITY POOLS:

These pools look especially good at sunset, when you are swimming in them, looking out at the ocean. They heated them this year and that made for a much more pleasant experience.

GOING TO CHURCH IN SPANISH:

After watching Dora the Explorer, the kids loved going to nursery in Spanish, and playing with the other kids. They even sang the same primary songs in Cabo, just with different words.
