Back home

 after a week in Cabo San Lucas. It was paradise, but as always I'm happy to be home! My absolute favorite moment was seeing sea turtles hatching and crawling their tiny selves to the ocean.  I can't post a video in blogger (grrr) so here's a snapshot. We just happened to be walking by at the right time, saw the first one climb out of the sand - many more to follow.  

And a couple days after, we saw a woman from the conservation project picking up eggs.  It seemed to me she counted about half and left the rest.  From what we were told, this helps a higher rate of the turtles survive. 

Our place rented through airbnb, Terra Sol was lovely.  We were right on the sand, beachfront.  Steps away from a pool with swim up palapa bar & eatery.  I did not carry my phone around much and was focused on enjoying the moment.  

Tina and I, friends since high school.  She's a great buddy, and fun travel partner.

The current was too strong for swimming, unless you were a very strong swimmer.   We did not, and there were hotel employees warning people not to get close when the tide was coming in.  One couple let their kids run right down into it!  Scary, they were quickly told no.

We could see the sunrise & sunset.

Really cool rock & granite formations.

Look at those faces!

A gorgeous place, it was hot 90° and humid, 74° ish at night.I spent a lot of time collecting and sorting shells. 

And before I knew it, the week was up!  I'd definitely go again, and stay at Terra Sol.  It was definitely a quieter scene than other beaches we visited.

And came home to my noID Aloe bloom just beginning! I'm guessing ferox hybrid, any thoughts? Those shade covers are now removed.

And Hakea laurina has a few little explosions herself!

Back to cleaning up for me this week!  The weather is glorious here, 80's all week.  Happy to be back with my family 💖.  I have a project starting on Monday that I can't wait to share!
