Cabo Wabo



First port, and we were impressed how sprawling the city was for miles around. We did a grueling but fun sea kayak to el arco (the arch) that included seeing seals and dodging tourist boats. Quite an experience to get sucked into the wake of a huge booze cruise barge filled with drunk Carnival cruise guests when you're padding a little kayak. The waves were deemed "okay" or yellow by the Mexican port authority but they certainly rivaled any we had seen with an undercurrent that would open gaping holes in the sand below your feet. Snorkeling was murky but plent of sea life to be seen. Survived our several mile kayak adventure and had about an hour to walk to Sammy Hagars famous bar Cabo Wabo, which was as uneventful as it sounds. Returned to the ship at sunset and had a great dinner and listened to the smooth sounds of a phillipino man singing dead on Neil Diamond covers that nearly brought down the house. Yep, you can guess the demographic, but Chris was most definitely in the super fan category.  Oh, there was also a phillipino trip singing some excellent old country and impersonating a mariachi band.
