Another day and another adventure here in Mexico. We spent our day re-learning how to relax... How did we do this? Easy take two bathing suits, two books, a bunch of snacks, a bottle of SPF 30 sunscreen (this bit is vital), a margarita, a pool, and a sunny warm day. Add a Marco and Polo and mix vigorously, let sit for three and a half hours. This is exactly how we spent our morning...
A clothing change, and power nap later we met up with the group to go on a Sunset Margarita Cruise! There was no lack of excitement on this cruise. To give you an idea the least exciting moment was convincing one of the optometry students that calling the Mexican Coast Guard from the boat radio was NOT an excellent idea. Before we had left the marina everyone on board had a margarita in hand and an almost infinite supply of refills thanks to Ms. Margarita (the Captain's first mate). Ms. Margarita not only supplied us with drinks she was also responsible for 'Dolphin Cheer-leading' (this consisted of whistling, clapping, and cheering in Spanish for the dolphins). This was probably the highlight of the cruise, the dolphins. There was a whole pod of them who live in the Sea of Cortez outside the marina. It was incredible! Polo got to sit at the bow of the boat and take pictures and videos of the dolphins swimming alongside the boat while Ms. Margarita lead the group in yelling 'arriba arriba' at the dolphins.
This exciting day finished off at a restaurant where Marco had a boiling pot of sauce and shrimp and Polo made Aluminum foil art. Now somewhere at around hour ten on the bus yesterday we weren't so sure this trip was really worth all that hassle, this cruise (and this day) changed our minds, we have now decided to buy a boat and live in San Carlos for life.
¡Quédate un empollón!
