02 February 2012 -- Cabo San Lucas
Well, did he see his shadow? Do we have an early Spring or six more weeks of Winter? I don't know if Phil saw his shadow or not, but he would have needed sunglasses, SPF 50+ sunscreen, and plenty of water today here in Cabo San Lucas. The weather, once again, was postcard perfect. I feel sorry for those of you whose weather isn't so great, as well as those of you suffering through electioneering. One nice thing about a lack of television channels worth watching is no television watching, which means we're not subjected to the political scene.
No photographs today as it was mostly a lazy day around the pool. We spent a couple hours there in the morning, and then we came back up to the room for tostadas. We went back down to re-claim our chairs and towels, but the sun was actually a bit warm to really enjoy much of it. So it was pack up the towels and return to the room to read, write, and relax.
We did take the car into San Jose del Cabo for the weekly Art Walk through the galleries in the Art District. There were a lot of visitors strolling the streets, sipping on wine, and milling about. We talked with Ida at Galeria de Ida Victoria, and with Tatiana at El Armario. Two of the other places we liked last year have since closed and now have new tenants; one of them was a gallery I highlighted in my novel Missing in Mexico. Such a shame to see places you like close down. For dinner, we went to Baan Thai -- we really enjoyed their food last year. We each had a bowl of a hot and spicy soup with shrimp, mushrooms, and lemongrass. I then had beef with broccoli that was cooked with ginger -- delicious. Darlene had shrimp with broccoli cooked with chilis and other spices. We brought some home for a tasty meal someday soon.
That's it for today. I hope your day was good.
