Pool area, ditto, but without Neva.  No winners at Loteria.

It was sunny today but cooled off early.  We had supper in the room and filled out the evening with TV, computer and reading.

Today is the day our friends come in from Phoenix.  We met Beth and Tim on our cruise last fall to Sydney. 

I picked up the car at 10am and at about 11am we left for the airport'  Of course the flight was delayed.

We had lunch at the Tropicana in San Jose and visited some shops.  Beth and Gerri made some jewelry purchases.  After that we drove over to the Marina to look around.  They have a swim with the dolphins attraction there and we watched them for quite awhile.

Back at the Hacienda Del Mar we got Tim and Beth settled in and then had a fabulous dinner at Pitahayas.

Pool time with Beth and Tim.  Tim was the big winner at  Loteria.

Beth and Tim are going to visit us in Las Vegas in March and we found out they will be at a timeshare in Oceanside the same time we are at a RV park there in July.

Dinner was at Villa Serena, this time I stuck with the tried and true lobster tail.

We started the day early.  We booked a whale watching tour and had to be at the marina in Cabo at 8:30 AM.  It was a great day on the water.  We saw a few whales but they weren't as active as when we went last year.  The tour included breakfast, which was very good.

After the tour and some shopping downtown, we came back to the Hacienda Del Mar, in time for Loteria.  No winners.

I should backup and mention that the property is hosting the G20 this next week and security is very tight.  Armed soldiers everywhere.  They choke down the traffic to one lane on the highway and look under all the cars with mirrors when they enter the property.  There is also temporary fencing all around the complex with metal detecting gate that aren't activated yet.

After Loteria I drove back up to San Jose and found a cache that I didn't find last week.  Another cacher gave me a hint.  That makes two caches this trip, with a couple downtown left to find on our cruise in April.

We went back downtown for supper at the Shrimp Factory.  A good shrimp dinner in a fun place.

A lazy day.  Pool time and Loteria.

It is Beth and Tim's last day, they fly back to Phoenix tomorrow.  Of course we will see them again next month in Las Vegas along with our friends Bob and Nina from the Bay Area.

No winners at Loteria.

We had dinner at Girasoles and played one game of Quidler before bedtime, Tim won.

Tomorrow is moving day for us and Beth and Tim fly home in the early afternoon.

Another week to go.

We were up early thinking our room would be ready, I had been told last night we would be in a new unit that no one had stayed in before.  I found out different and we weren't in this week's unit until about noon.

We had breakfast at Tomato's Restaurant.

Tim and Beth left at about 1:30.  A bitter sweet goodbye, we will see them in Las Vegas in a couple of weeks.

Gerri had hurt her back while packing, but she stayed in the pool area until after Loteria.  Neither of us won a game.

Gerri went to the room shortly after Loteria, I stayed at the pool till about 5 PM.

With Gerri's instructions I made tuna salad sandwiches for supper.  We are still getting computer time without logging onto the Sheraton site.  After some TV time it was bedtime.
