Lunes y Martes

Monday we spent the day relaxing poolside again, this time with much stronger SPF, reapplying religiously. We met the nicest couple lying next to us at the pool--newlyweds from Indianapolis! Abby and Eric just got married this past weekend, and they were fortunate enough to have their honeymoon go off without a hitch just after the wedding. :-)

The 4 of us really click, and we hung out again on Tuesday at the resort's "Welcome Fiesta," complete with margaritas y mariachi band!























When the host (a Mexican Adam Sandler) asked for volunteers on the stage, Abby & I both gladly volunteered our husbands. I think Wheeler and Eric were secretly excited for the opportunity, as Mexican Sandler was holding a large bottle of tequila in his hand. Mexican Sandler had one of the band members demonstrate what each contestant needed to do in order to win a bottle of Jose Cuervo...the contest included a microphone, a shot of Cuervo, and topped off with an authentic high-pitched Mexican Scream.


















It was a close competition between the 2 boys (funny enough, the 2 ladies competing both had man voices), but Wheeler won the popular vote and walked off stage with said bottle of liquor, which we all promptly poured into our previously weak (but free) margaritas. At our table, we also made friends with a couple of nice fishermen on their annual Cabo fishing trip (seen in the background of the tequila bottle photo below). I think Eric was hoping they would invite him out on their boat, but no matter how much tequila we poured, sadly...no invitation. Turns out these boats are super expensive and only fit a few people on at one time. 'A' for Effort though Eric!

































Later that night, we all changed into our bathing suits and met back at the pool for a moonlit swim/poolside night cap with our newly won bottle of tequila and our handy iPod stereo. Nothing like being able to swim outside at 9:00 at night in October!
