We've reached our first destination at the tip of Baja California, Cabo San Lucas. The port has no large pier so we will need to use tenders (small boats) to ferry us from the cruise ship to the town. We booked a tour through Princess and we have to be ready by 8:45am so we were up at 7 and down to breakfast by 7:30. Mom and I are getting tired of the "big food" so I had cereal and fruit and Mom had oatmeal and mint pears. Everyone else was still going stro...

We started the day with a nice breakfast in the restaurant. Then we all split up. Mom checked out some stores, went to a $10 sale, listened to the "Fire Opal" lecture, had a snack and ice cream cones and then returned to our stateroom to get ready for formal night. I had a tuxedo to put on and Mom a fancy dress. The others were preparing for dinner too. Git and Alan both had tuxedos.We went to dinner - medallions of beef, French onion soup, sushi, and desert...

"Yes. Just a minute. What time is it?" Mom greeted the knock on our stateroom door at 7:30am. Oh ya. She ordered room service. Coffee and yogurt. We have no idea that it's light outside since were in our tomb but it's time to get up. In about an hour we're out and up to breakfast, sitting by the pool. It's foggy out and the ship's horn sounds every 4 minutes, warning other mariners of our presence.Boomer and I go down to get our inte...

Up this morning at 7:30am with Mom making coffee and feeding the animals and me finishing some paperwork, taking up the garbage to the street and checking out the news. Mom's still packing a few things and I have to admit, she's doing much better than the last 10 day cruise we took: 2 1/2 bags compared to 10 before. Our ride will be here at 11:30. Alan arrives around 10 with a load of suitcases to start. He'll return later with the rest. Mom is co...

We were up at 7 and down to breakfast by 8. Can't pass up a free breakfast. Then we checked out of the hotel, the clerk called us a cab and we left for the airport by 9. The driver and I had some Spanish conversation but he spoke good English so he used that most of the time. We made good time to the airport since it was Sunday morning and little traffic. Check-in for our flight and luggage was crowded but we are priority plus so we go to head of the line. T...
