Cabo...one last hoorah before the baby comes!



Matt and I headed down to Cabo with Luke and Amy for one last big vacation before both of our babies come and our lives change forever! We stayed at a resort about a half hour north of Cabo San Lucas, which was right on the beautiful beach and so nice. (Check out the view from our room in the slideshow!) Matt and Luke rented surfboards for the whole week, but since Amy and I are both very pregnant, we couln't join in the surfing this time! We were both a little disappointed about that, but it was worth it to keep our babies alive and well :) We dug holes in the sand for our belly's to fit into and read the whole time we were on the beach. We were both surprised to find that digging holes really works for pregnant belly's!

Other than surfing and laying on the beach, we did take one horrible excursion in our wonderful little Nissan Platina down to Cabo San Lucas to go snorkeling at Lovers Beach. We took what was called the "Glass Bottom Boat" (which was just an old ghetto boat with a strip of glass through the middle of it!) out to the island, which had so many boats coming in and out that there were no fish to be seen! Needless to say, we didn't snorkel very long, but the boys played in the huge waves and got annihilated...it was really entertaining to watch! After our snorkeling adventure, we went to get in our car that would not start! We called the rental company, and all they did was try jumping it 30 times, even though we knew it was not battery related. They finally took us back to the office and gave us a new Platina...silver instead of white this time! We were all starving by then so we went to what looked like a nice restaraunt, only to be disappointed by crappy fish tacos and ribs. They were so gross I couldn't eat more than one bite, so we left and went through the McDonalds drive thru!

All in all, it was an awesome vacation and we would definitely go back someday. The condo was very kid-friendly so we may go back as a family at some point! There was an awesome pool area right in front of the beach, shuffleboar which Luke and Amy kicked our butts at!), beach volleyball, tennis, mini-golf...all kinds of fun activities. And to top it off, it's only a 2 1/2 hour direct flight from Salt Lake! Thanks for a great vacation Larsen's...we can't wait for the next one!!
