This evening we've enjoyed dinner at Tres Gallos, a Mexican style restaurant in Cabo San Lucas. It was recommended by our hotel concierge.

Downtown Los Cabos - Sun, 5 May 2024, 1pm

I split this journal entry out from the previous one because it was getting too long. At the tequila tasting I did today, Luis was so helpful and so generous in spending time with me (plus he was drinking shots with me, so he got some benefit there too) that I learned a lot about ( Read more... )

Los Cabos Travelog #8
Downtown Los Cabos - Sun, 5 May 2024, 1pm

This morning I visited a tequila shop for a tequila tasting. I spent a while figuring out where to do it. ...Not because there are few places offering tequila tasting but because there are so many. There's at least one tequila shop on every block in downtown Cabo San Lucas. Seriously ( Read more... )

Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos - Sat, 4 May 2024, 9pm

At lunch today- a very bougie lunch- we made plans for the rest of the day. Originally we thought we'd spend time this afternoon on the beach, but the beach here is one of those "Look, but don't go in the water" beaches. Though there's welcoming looking sand, the waves are ( Read more... )

Los Cabos Travelog #4
Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos - Sat, 4 May 2024, 4pm

Our plan for today was simple: we'd get to our hotel in Los Cabos, check in, eat lunch, and figure out what to do for the rest of the day. The schedule got a little late with all the waiting at the airport after we landed. Then checking in at the hotel entailed so much ( Read more... )
