Cabo

Jack got home from Baja at like 2 a.m. and I got up at 4:45 to fly to Merril in Cabo. The moon was pretty in the drive down.


I was cutting it a little close but got to the gate a few minutes early to board. I arrived in Cabo and Merril picked me up for some tacos. After that we drove around a little and picked up Merril's  clothes from a laundry service. 

And found a la michoacana ice cream store. 

We checked into the condo and went for a walk on the beach. 

We had dinner at a sushi place. We went to bed early. 

The next day was Sunday and we went to church. It ended up being stake conference so we had to drive a half an hour to a different building. There was another group of gringos with the same problem. So we gave a father and son a ride to stake conference. Church was nice, we used live translate so I could understand more. The father and son, Kendrick and Jake Johnson, invited us to go fishing the next day. 

We had lunch with Gary and Debbie. Gary is 68 and Merril meet him on Facebook and he's going to Ironman the Baja 1000 on a dirt bike too. 

We went back to the condo and changed into swimsuits and went back to the beach and swam in the ocean. The water was really nice and I normally don't swim in the ocean unless it's warm. But it was great! 

We had dinner with Noah, a guy who's helping chase in the truck, and found churros and a festival. 

Perfecto!

Sand Diego for Shawn's 50th Birthday!

Tiffany Nelson invited a huge group of people to celebrate Shawn's 50th birthday in San Diego. It was a nice little getaway. We flew down in Dillan's small plane. We saw the San Diego temple and a cool bi plane. 




When we got there, we were starving and Dillan and Hailey knew of a good crab back place. It was so good!


We met up with the rest of the group and rode motorized longboards on the beach. I chose to sit on mine because I was afraid I would turf it. Merril stood on his.






We rode for a few miles down the beach and stopped. We found this sand sketch.
