Viva Las Vacaciones!

Ah, Labor Day. It's described as "a day off for the working citizens".

In honor of all the workaholic citizens that fail to take this day off from work, I decided to take several and high-tail it to Cabo for some good old fun in the sun. Nevermind the weather forecast prediction of isolated thunderstorms due to the several hurricanes and tropical storms passing through the Caribbean and Baja. The weather actually proved quite cooperative, reinforcing my theory that Mother Nature likes it when I take extended leaves from work. I think I'm going to have to increase the number and length of my vacations going forward, you know, to make Mother Nature happy.

Anyway, Cabo is pretty but boring. There is not a lot to do except eat, drink and sweat in the sun and not necessarily in that order.
