So what started off as going off to Baja for three weeks to clear my head, feel the warm rays of the summer sun on the Tropic of Cancer and do a little networking for Baja job opportunities has turned into a 10-week sojourn including settling down for the month of June in my own little cabaña near the Villa del Palmar resort in Cabo San Lucas.

Ever wonder why Los Cabos and other select Mexican destinations come into being and grow like crazy? It's not luck or coincidence. It's all very well-planned. Thanks to Fonatur, the "institution responsible for the planning and development of sustainable tourism projects." And with respect to the Baja Peninsula specifically, there is the vision of the Escalera Nautica, the Nautical Ladder --- a mega project; canceled "as is" in early 2010.

I actually got up at a reasonable hour, 8 am, and worked on editing pictures and videos of this trip. Then off on errands for supplies before heading to Km-84 beach from 2-6 pm.

Stopped at the CC Mercado on the way back and stumbled upon a magnificent restaurant in town not generally frequented by tourists --- Las Guacamayas Restaurant --- now one of my favorites, at the corner of Alikan & Morelos.

The evening entertainment at Villa del Palmar was actually quite good and included Cirque du Soleil  / Allegria & Riverdance portions --- which Thomas is also in charge of.
