In just the first two hours of being in Mexico, Todd and I learned a lot about ourselves. We are not very trusting people, to say the least. After an hour of battling back and forth with car rental place, debating if the shuttle was going to kidnap us, and wondering if they would overcharge the credit card, we were off on our way to the resort. We were still a little nervous. It didn't help that we almost ran into a massive cow right in the middle of the road. We literally turned to eachother and said where the heck are we?! Ok but it gets better. Its just the outskirts that were a little scary. Once we got into Cabo San Lucas it was absolutely beautiful. In fact, we spent an amazing week together on our honeymoon. Check out the pics to see what we got to do!!
A day at the famous Chileno Beach. Relaxing, swimming, and laying on the beach.
We ziplined across rivers and canyons, walked on wires and old bridges from one side of the mountain to the other, rock climbed straight up walls and the lowered ourselves back down the other side. It was a blast!!
We went up to the downtown part of Cabo that day and the ocean was absolutely crazy. Really choppy with massive waves bad enough that they almost closed down that part of the beach. Actually, the waves washed up high enough to knock those jet skis right into us! Of course I wasn't paying attention so they clothes lined me at the knee and I face planted over the top of it. Haha!! Really embarrassing. Needless to say, I was a little shaken up before we even started. I held on for dear life the whole time but Todd had the time of his life. Now that I am safe and no longer in the water, I can say it was a blast!
We also went on a snorkeling/kayaking tour out to the arches. Thank goodness for Todd because I learned I am not very strong and didn't off much man power in the kayak. The bottom of it was glass so I spent most of my time watch the fish below us. The water was so clear you could see straight to the sand at the bottom.
After we got done kayaking we started to snorkel near lovers beach. This is a famous beach because one side of the beach touches the Pacific Ocean and the other touches the Atlantic. Its the only beach that comes in contact with two different oceans!! Check out the picture above.
We were the only people on the tour and we had an awesome tour guide. He dove down to the bottom of the ocean to catch a blower fish and a seahorse and brought them up for us to hold.Todd attempted to dive down to the bottom but only made it about 4 feet. Its way harder than it looks.
On our last day we para sailed over the beach in cabo. For those of you who have never done that, its an interesting experience. You don't even feel like you are moving and the ride is incredibly smooth. We had the best view of the beach, the arches, and the city.
