Tuesday
I’m going to go back to Monday night when Ricardo, Suzie, Louise and I went to dinner at Mi Casa after spending the day at the beach snorkeling. We had planned to go to Miguel Locos but when we got to the front door it was all locked up and closed for the night…now what? It didn’t take us too long to make up our minds. Across the street and the town plaza sat Mi Casa. The last time we had dinner there was about 10 years ago. The décor is “Old Mexico” and it is wonderful to let your eyes just wonder from one vignette to the next, and the food…Outstanding !!! This is a place that just makes you feel good, especially when you have great company to enjoy it with. It has really been great to find Ricardo and Suzie again, and it will be tough to say good-bye come Friday.
Tuesday morning we ventured down to the Sand Bar for breakfast and a chance to see all the guys that make the Sand Bar what it is once again...Chino, Able, Alfredo, Rodrigo, and Jesus. Unfortunately things aren’t back to “normal”, but the court date is coming on Friday, let’s hope that settles it once and forever. About 5 this evening Sheila Pontius called and told us that she and Ernie had 4 free tickets to the New York Ice Show. Ice show?...Here in Cabo San Lucas?...Free???...We’ll be there !!! When Lou and I arrived we found Ernie and Sheila waiting out front of this large tent. At that time, there were no more than 10 to 12 others standing around, but this was about 30 minutes before the gates opened and after all, it’s Mexico and Mexican time prevails…In the next 30 minutes the crowds grew to about 200 or so and the gates were opened. Seeing as our tickets were “Free”, we were lead off by this young man. To get to the bleacher section we passed through this maze of supports for the high priced seats and finally to the bleacher section…the “Free Seats”. No sooner had we had the opportunity to see these bleacher you sit in those seats (pointing to the high priced ($15.00)) for $5.00 or you can sit on these (a 2X6 plank) for “Free”. Well let me see…a 2X6 plank vs. a plastic seat with a back on it…and the show is how long???...HERE’S YOUR $5 !!! After being seated in our new “Luxury Seats” and directly in front of the performers we were totally and enthusiastically entertained. The show took on the New York Theatre theme, with dances and music from different Broadway shows. We were also entertained with comedy and THE best juggler any of us has ever seen…what a show !!!
