Travel Log: Cabo San Lucas

We love to travel and in the past I have been fairly terrible about sharing our adventures in blog form both here and on our blog . My plan is to turn that trend around and share more about our travels both near and far!

So here we go...Cabo Style!!!

We traveled to...  

Cabo San Lucas, California Baja Sur, Mexico (aka Cabo) 

We stayed... 

At the RIU Palace All Inclusive Resort. 

This is the second all inclusive resort we have stayed at and it was wonderful for this particular trip. We were celebrating Shane's parents 40th wedding anniversary with his parents, his brother, and his wife (and our 9th anniversary and Todd and Roxann's 8th!!) . We loved lounging around, sipping frosty beverages, eating yummy fresh food, and did I mention lounging around?!

On the Been There, Done That List... 

This trip was all about relaxing, enjoying each other's company, and more relaxing so we spent a lot of time at the pool and lounging around the beach. We ladies did venture into downtown Cabo for a little shopping one morning at the Flea Market and lunch at Cabo Wabo. I highly suggest both! The flea market had tons of neat stuff to look at and good deals on goodies to take home. While Cabo Wabo had amazingly delicious lobster tacos! YUM!

Our hotel was located just across the bay from Lands End on the Pacific side and while we didn't travel over to it, or Lover's Beach this trip, we did wake up to it every day and watch the sun settle behind it. We did get in the water but the water was pretty choppy and chilly so we didn't spend as much time in it as Shane and I would have liked. It was beautiful to look at and so peaceful to hear crashing on the beach!

All in all it was a wonderfully relaxing family vacation! Yay!

Home Again...

Shane and I traveled to San Francisco and the Bay Area to visit Shane's brother and his wife and celebrate my birthday. It was an amazing trip spent with people I love in an incredibly beautiful corner of our country. In the coming days I will share some of the beautiful pictures we snapped and a few suggestions for those that might be planning a trip to the area. In the meantime I'm doing my best to catch up around the house :)

Yoga, Yarn, and Fall is Finally Coming....

So my words for this fall are; calm, breathe, and enjoy! I love fall so much and every year I get more and more excited for cozy sweaters, apple cider slushies, and that crispy smell in the air!

So, we start with yoga! I have always enjoyed the stretch, strength, and breathing involved with yoga and since moving to Indy 4 years ago, I really haven't found a yoga home. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and go the DVD route. Thus far, I have been enjoying a lot of Rodney Yee videos from Gaiam. They are the closest thing I have found to being in an actual study class in DVD form. Ahh.. yoga!

On to yarn... As promised, below are pictures of the slightly modified Marian cowls that I have been clicking out in no time flat. I also included a little picture of the grey alpaca shawl I have been working on nearly all summer. I think it is almost ready to bind off thanks to finishing several rows on our overnight to French Lick Springs Resort this past weekend....

Which brings me to fall (again)! We welcomed fall this Labor Day weekend by visiting French Lick Springs Resort. It is a beautiful historical resort that was brought back to life by a revitalization project in 2006. I highly recommend it for completely relaxation!

So there you have it.... a good start to my fall of calm, breathing, and enjoying!!
