Taken from a moving bus enroute to La Bufadora, the famous blowhole in Ensenada, Mexico. Of course, they neglected to mention ahead of time that the tide would be way too low to see any blowhole activity lol but the picturesque drive along the coastline was totally worth the journey.

It wasn't horrible and I didn't even pass out or anything! In fact, quite the opposite, it seemed to be a big hit. People even came up to me later with compliments. Ahahaha!

For fun, in Cabo San Lucas, we took a morning glass-bottom boat tour to see the colorful undersea marine life, so incredibly beautiful! Read about our adventure below..
