An Unexpected Night in Cabo San Lucas

October 1, 2021 by Dave2 Comments

The rooftop edges over dramatically - at its most precipitous drop, one would fall maybe 10 feet if they weren't careful. There is no railing guarding the edge of the roof leading to the steps to the lower level.

If you are visiting from out of state or abroad, Daniel recommends Warner Brothers Studio Tour.  Unlike Universal, which is literally a theme park with very loud buses that … [Read more...]

ACRE, San Jose del Cabo, Baja California – May 2021

May 1, 2021 by DaveLeave a Comment

This 25 acre palm studded oasis founded by two Canadians sits on the edge of the Sierra de la Laguna foothills, a short drive from the center of San Jose del Cabo.
