Cabo San Lucas August 2007

Here are a few photos from our most recent family vacation. We stayed at the "Mondo Condo" at the Marina Sol Resort, just two blocks from both the beach and downtown.

Down at the beach.



The road to the beach from the condo - one block up the dirt road and one block down the dirt road.










We took a snorkeling trip on the catamaran La Princessa up the Sea of Cortez (Gulf of California) to the Santa Maria Bay Marine Sanctuary.

Sunning on the trip out.

Everyone wants to see "Lands End" close up.

New resorts along the coast.

Here are a few pics of the family during the trip.







Here are a few pics of sights and places around town.
We had a bit of rain...this is the street next to the condo.

We came across a little cemetery on one of our walks - only open Sunday afternoons.

I ordered Red Snapper - and got the whole thing!


We also tried a bit of parasailing.











One night we walked a few blocks to see some bullfighting - "bloodless" for the gringos. It included a Mexican Fiesta and authentic Mexican buffet.


A children's dance group performed several dances.
