We're back!

Back from Cabo! We had an AMAZING time! It was such a great belated honeymoon and we're so glad we went. There was a snafu a few days before the trip (involving me realizing my husband's passport was expired and him having to take a flight to San Francisco to the closest open Peruvian consulate (he's from Peru and doesn't have US citizenship yet.) but we got it straightened out, and happily were on our flight Sunday morning.

We arrived at the resort at about 3pm, and the rest of the week was spent eating, lounging by the pool/beach, drinking (all inclusive included all drinks even alcohol!) and just enjoying each others company. We took one day and walked the three miles on the beach into downtown Cabo and did some shopping, and then went into downtown Cabo twice to go dancing. The rest of the time we hung out at our resort, watched the performances by the staff, and it was great! We definitely would recommend anyone staying at the Riu Santa Fe or Riu Palace in Cabo (or any of the many other Riu locations!) The staff made us feel like royalty while we were there, the food was great, drinks were good, and it was a great atmosphere!

Here are a few photos:


Arriving in our room, we were greeted by some towel swans...












With our mini bar in the room


The beach past our infinity edge pool


Relaxing on the beach and watching my husband swim


Out in downtown Cabo at El Squid Roe


At Cabo Wabo...we had to go there...and no, I wasn't double fisting just holding the other drink.


At the pool bar


Getting ready to snorkel...where I ended up being stung by a jellyfish! Didn't pee on it though, just put packed hot sand onto it and it felt better


Who doesn't love a swim up bar??


Out Latin dancing at Las Quesadillas


The amazing sunset from our balcony on the last night. We sat out there with a drink and just watched the whole sky catch on fire...

Ok, back to real life... :)
