IMG 9524  It's a good habit to make a record of where the vehicle is in the parking lot, but with this van I could see it from a mile away. IMG 9525  Very alarmed to see lines spilled out onto the sidewalk at 5:15AM. Fortunately this was just for people checking bags. IMG 9526  This was the security line. Longer than usual but it moved. No more having to take stuff out of bags, take shoes off, etc. at OAK. Yay. PS the TSA Pre-check people on left were, every one of them, vocally grumpy about their line being as long as the general boarding line. IMG 9527  I know that image of the woman on the right is copied from a 60s (or 70s) sci fi movie but I can't remember which one. IMG 9528  Already halfway there but it is only now getting to usual coffee and snack time to start the day. IMG 9530  This one will take us to Cabo.
IMG 9531  Cabo! [The jetway led us to locked doors. Someone had to get the attention of a gate agent on the level above us by throwing a little bag of snacks at the window behind her like 5 times.] IMG 9532  First man through the gauntlet. IMG 9533  It's a bit warm at the airport. IMG 9534  Team Cabo 2024. IMG 9535  Kinda bland but OK. We had a little time to kill before check-in. IMG 9536
IMG 9537  The upper deck. About all we used it for was air drying laundry. IMG 9538  The pre-stock situation. IMG 9539  Our base of operations once again. The pool seemed warmer this year. Don't ask us why. IMG 9542  Have you seen this man? IMG 9549  This would have been easier to inflate with an electric pump. IMG 9550  Take a break.
IMG 9551  Funny story, there was an electric pump in the living room. IMG 9552 IMG 9553  Mi Casa for night one. Chips and salsa and margaritas to get things rolling. IMG 9554  Filete de res. All good. IMG 9555  Steaks all around. No one is suprised. IMG 9556
IMG 9558  Slims. IMG 9566  We showed her the picture with the ice on the beer bottles and she had an answer for it. You can find it yourself. IMG 9567  The cap on the bottle of reposada had a weird malfunction and you couldn't pour it! Emergency measures were called for.
