Mexico, what a trip!!

From May 26 - June 2, 2007...

I took a little journey down to Los Cabos, Mexico. It is located on the southern tip of the Baja California, which is the Peninsula on the upper west coast of Mexico, just below California, USA. I decided to go 3 days prior, I said "what the heck, let's go." I said this to myself of course, because I went alone.

Here are a few pictures of my vacation.

Just ran down, jumped in the sand and snapped this pic. Check out those legs, you should see them now. Brown, like over cooked, crispy turkey.

My new friend, Jesus Miguel Garcia Rodriguez. He saved a lady's life in the pool just before this photo was taken. Look at him, he's so collected. If I saved someone's life, I would surely be struttin' around less sleepy looking as him.
He was introducing me to his beautiful family. He wanted to introduce me to his youngest son (I forget his name) but he refused to come over. I think because he knew we were speaking english. His excuse, "I'm taking a holiday from my english." He told his father. Good one kid, I wish I could say that.

With looks like that, I totally passed for local. I'm not referring to my good looks, my brown skin of course. Many of the locals couldn't believe that I wasn't Mexican or I couldn't even speak and understand the language.

The town square of San Jose Del Cabo. A cute little town of about 40,000 people. It's the town capital of the county, so it’s a fairly rich city compared to other neighbouring communities.

Here I am in Cabo San Lucas overlooking the town. Quite the view I must say.

This picture was taken a few days after I got my Mexican name, Pancho Pelle Caliente. Luis at the leather shop did a double take looking at me thinking I was his Tequila drinking cousin. I was named after him.

Here I am on the southern point of Baja California. Right now, I'm on the Sea of Cortez side. On the other side of the point is the Pacific Ocean.

I did the trip on my own, definitely out of my character. I get all my energy from being around people, so this was a different trip for me. What a great experience. I look forward to my next trip.
