Los Cabos - Day 4 Bahia Chellino

Los Cabos - 墨西哥游记:第四天 (Day 4)

------------------------------------------------------------
第四天:Bahia Chellino (2007.12.31 Day 4)

  不高兴就喜欢睡懒觉,可一出门玩,为了拍日出,他可是能起大早。在LC这8天,基本上每天都出去了。还要拉上我。开始,为了表现自己支持他的摄影,还陪着去。到了,就让我摆动作。我虽然练了3周的瑜珈,可动作都不过关。只好照猫画虎来几下。朋友看到这张照片,非说我这不是瑜珈动作,是自由女神。管他的,反正是个影儿,像什么都行啊。

  Boathill used to be lazy in the morning. But for photograhing, he could get up quite early and also drag me out of the bed. To show my support, I posed toward sunrise. The posture was from my Hot Yoga session but my friend said it was Statue of Liberty. Anyway it was whatever profile in silhouette as he demanded.

  回到后院,不高兴又给没头脑照了几张大头像, 肉比较多,大家担待点:)

  今天决定开车到我们附近的Chelino Bay去下海看鱼。因为我们全家都不会游泳,我们也不敢跟船去深海看鱼。这个地方特别好,就在岸边都能看到鱼。彩色的,大的,小的,特漂亮。很多船带人到这里。我们自己开车来,省了这份钱。

  Chellino Bay was today's plan. We had brought all the equipments here to try snorkelling. And we did see so many black-yellow stripped fish all around us when we walked under the water. My dad even touched one but Boathill did not have the luck even he had tried so hard. We did not know swimming well and could not get into farther. My mom was afraid of sea water so that she took the job of photographing this time.

  海水盐多,人一下去就飘起来了。妈妈怕冷,不下水。我让不高兴和爸爸一起憋口气下海,让妈妈照相。爸爸不会憋气,下去一下就马上站起来了。


  朋友看到腿上的紫印子,以为是胎记,说我怎么不打点粉遮盖一下。其实,那是我出发前2天走路撞到了床头上。嗨,总是跌跌撞撞,要不然不高兴总叫我没头脑呢。这次照相每次拍Bikini的时候都留下了它美丽的模样。

  My friend looked at the pictures closely and she said I had a birthmark. But it was actually I bumped to the bed at home before the Chritmas. And it remained on many of the pictures in this trip.

  今天可是2007年的最后一天。晚上我和不高兴来到沙滩,看到了很多星星。

  A Wish for the New Year!

  过去的一年,有挫折,但更多的是收获。从明天开始,我的新职务新头衔就正式生效了。对我将来的发展,这一步非常重要。我真的感激我有那么好、那么支持我的家人,朋友,和同事。如果我这样的还算不幸运,谁还能算是幸运呢?我真的很知足。

Los Cabos - Day 5 San Lucas

Los Cabos - 墨西哥游记:第五天 (Day 5)

------------------------------------------------------------
第五天:San Lucas (2008.01.01 Day 5)

  在墨西哥开始了新的一年的第一天。
  不高兴又是去照日出,我只好又摆了几个歪歪斜斜的动作,就不在这里现眼了。只有这个懒腰伸得挺舒服。

  The first day of New Year 2008. For Boathill, it was his first sunrise of the year; for me, it was my first stretch. I was so relaxed.


  今天我们的目的地是Cabo San Lucas城。先来到一个渡假村的沙滩,想从这里看LC著名的象鼻子,结果没看到。(We were searching for a spot to shoot the famous El Archo. Here was the first stop in San Lucas and we did not see it from this beach.)

  这时,又来个小商贩。我试了几个帽子。砍了半天价,把身上带的所有40美刀现金掏出来,买了2个帽子,和那个红色的草编包(无盖的)。

  I emptied all cash from Boathill's wallet and bargained two hats and one red bag for $40. The peddler tried to ask for the wallet when I showed everything inside. We chatted a while about his friend going to work in America. He helped to correct my grammar. When I was "amiga" and he was "amigo", we both took the deal happily.

  在海边晒完太阳,向市中心前进。中午慕名来到Shrimp Factory。我们都不饿,就点了一个水煮大虾和2杯玛格瑞塔,草莓的和青柠的。草莓的特好喝。


  Around 1240 we found this Shrimp Factory that I had read reviews from the internet. We ordered the Jumbo shrimp. When I saw the waiter served some colorful drinks in big round cups, I asked him and he told us it was margarita. I ordered two favors and I liked the strawberry one.

  吃了大虾,回到停车的Dairy Queen店附近,加防晒霜。然后开始正式逛商店。这个城市比圣何塞大,商店也多,不过卖的东西大同小异。我在这里买了几条墨西哥毯子。

  在小摊一条街的Jungle Ave对面见到一个卖玛格丽塔酒(Margarita)的店,叫妈妈丽塔,因为她是所有玛格丽塔酒的妈妈。沿街走回停车的地方,和其他一些游客一样,发现Dairy Queen快餐店里竟然没有洗手间。不过还是买了奶昔(milk shake),坐下来修整片刻。不高兴在这里闲着没事,用镜头捕捉了一个吹气球的墨西哥女孩。

  We shopped couple blankets and walked up to Jungle Avenue, across the street Boathill took a picture of this Mamarita store. Then we walked back to Dairy Queen where we parked the car. During the time I bought milk shakes, Boathill was still busy to capture whatever he could find on the street.

  继续逛码头。人很多,热闹非凡。水上都是船。街头是餐馆、地摊、和商店。



  Along the harbor, it was crowded with tourists in the restaurants, bars, small stores, and crafts booths. Enjoying the local lives, we were walking all the way to west and trying to find the best spot to watch the sunset. The woman at our resort had told us that she climbed over the hills to find Lover's beach. But we saw the sign of "No Se Vende..." and guessed the climbing was no longer allowed.

  好长的一条路,一直环绕整个港口。不远处还能看见山上写着"No Se Vende...",猜想那里翻过山就是我们想去的情人海滩。否则要租船才能到达。于是试着向山脚下走。


  走啊走啊,又到了一个渡假村。门口都有保安,不过没盘问我们。


  Walk and walk ... we eventually found this open beach behind a resort.

  这里的景色真是美不胜收。一边是大海,一边是礁石。我们跋涉是为了去最好的地点等日落。

  可我实在走不动了。I was tired and could not walk any more.


  照了几张相,突然觉得自己的衣服不好看。不高兴就把他的衬衣捐献出来,自己光膀子。

  See the shirt that I borrowed from Boathill and he had to bare the arms ...

  终于到了。这里的石头都好奇怪,各种形状,上面还有洞。看看这颜色,太美了。


  We enjoyed a whole afternoon here and had thought this was the Lover's Beach.

  等夕阳的时候我们在沙滩上走来走去,浪好大。

  Walking with ocean waves ... 这是干什么,瑜珈还是太极拳?
Is it Yoga or Taiji?

  终于等到了夕阳...... Wah! Sunset ...
