i went by myself and it’s been at least a decade since i’ve been out of the country (went to the philippines when i was a young pup).. i couldn’t afford a really long stay.. but i was able to squeeze in a 3 day / 2 night stay at the cabo villas beach resort (a couple blocks away from downtown).. what’s cool about cabo is that it’s only about a 3 hour flight from SF

one of the best vacations i’ve had (despite the pushy people trying to sell you time share as soon as you get out of customs).. felt awkward at first because all i saw were old couples in the shuttle when i first got there.. and here i am traveling solo lol.. felt at home once i got to the resort though.. a lot of beatiful women working there.. even the maids looked good!

i was able to go bar hopping one night.. one of the locals took me to el squid roe.. but it was pretty laid back because it was the night after halloween.. from what i heard it gets pretty rowdy there though

next day i had to go through a time share presentation (they offered a free 3 night stay to come back in the future so i couldn’t resist).. once that was done.. i went jetskiing.. ate some genuine mexican food.. atv riding through the cactus desert in playa migrino.. after about 45 minutes of riding.. you end up at the secluded beach with miles of sand.. this is where you could get loose with the ATV and ride as fast as you want to.. i went in the afternoon so i was able to catch the sunset.. ate dinner at the restaurant near my room once i got back.. they had a little bit of everything there.. mexican.. italian.. japanese.. american

next day i took a walk along the beach before i left.. got a late check out and flew back to the bay.. expensive trip.. but well worth it.. i’ll try to post a pic or two when i have time

found a last minute deal.. squeezed as much sightseeing as i could in two days (not long enough)

- ground zero (wtc)

- soho shopping

- passed through little italy and chinatown

- walked across brooklyn bridge

- st. patrick’s cathedral

- grand central station

- top of the rock (view from top of rockafeller center)

- times square

- top of empire state building (at night)

- dinner @ palm (steakhouse)

- doubletree hotel (on lexington ave.)

- carnegie deli (yummy pastrami)

- eat lunch, people watch, and walk through central park

- the MET (metropolitan museum)

- food to go at carmine’s (italian)

- late flight back home

not bad for 2 days =D

great place to visit.. fresh air.. tall trees everywhere

it’s pretty cool how the redwoods tend to grow in circles.. which from the looks of it is true

is this really where they filmed return of the jedi?
