Time for the husband to go to China again,

Good thing my hubby likes eating whatever they feed him. I would be stuck taking protein bars and starving on the whole trip, well except  I could and would eat fruits and vegetables I guess. But I draw the line at unidentifiable meat. 
I would be a definite killjoy on his business trip. 
Oh well, the week after he arrives home we are off to Sunny Los Cabos to enjoy the summer weather there.
While there will celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary. I am really looking forward to it.
Still need to get the hair and nails done, one spray tan, and pack all my cooler fun summer clothes.
My sister in law has loaned me some gorgeous sarongs to take so I have been practicing tying them, they look so fun.
Of course I have been dieting like a crazy person. but isn't that what vacation is all about. You diet till you get there then eat until you are so full you cant get comfy.
They also have free shows every night we cannot wait to get this show on the road.
Cabo here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This website has some interesting information,it was fun browsing.



Some weather appropriate clothes are next


Luckily my sis-in-law loaned me some sarongs

Directions for tying the Sarongs

Comfy Casual Wear

As you can imagine while I am worrying about clothes, my husband it ready to go fishing.

I think I will just pass on the fishing and get a massage at the hotel!

Keep tuned, at the end of September we should have may pictures and adventures to share.

Enjoy!!!!
