18 liters of Mexican milk

We have arrived in San Jose del Cabo!  Day 1 of 29 glorious days and we were greeted with heat, for us anyhow.  It is currently 79 here but feels insanely hot.  We ate sandwiches on our new garden terrace overlooking both the Sea of Cortez as well as the infinity pool here and I had to remove my elbow from the sun because it was stinging!  Shows how MN pale I am.

There was the usual confusion at the airport of who was driving us back to our condo.  We waited around a half hour eventually making an expensive phone call to our resort.  Our driver ran up with our sign even though he claimed to have been here 20 mins, no worries we had been enjoying the surroundings.  Sea, desert, and mountains all in one.  Cacti EVERYWHERE.  All of the local houses were small gray cubes and rectangles.  

We love our condo.  Beautiful stainless steel appliances, granite surfaces, luxury bedding, yet the towels are literally mismatched secondhand beach towels.  Strange considering all the other work they put into the details, but this is Mexico.  We have great flat screens, artwork, and furniture throughout the condo yet there is speaker wire hanging out of holes in the walls.  We were a little surprised to see a 3rd bedroom here, that had not been advertised.  Thought there were only going to be two, I guess now we could accommodate guests if any were to venture down to the southern most tip of the Baja peninsula.  Funniest of all was the plethora of Mexican dairy products waiting for us upon arrival.  We have 18 liters of UHT milk, both whole and "light" varieties.  Also 1.5 liters of strawberry yogurt drink.  I had put in an order for groceries for us and somewhere in the translation they thought I wanted a TON of milk even though I only asked for a half gallon of whole and skim milk.  Not sure how we will finish 18 liters but it makes me laugh.  

It is only nap time and I still have the rest of the evening to play!  Both my boys are sleeping and I am ready to explore.  Even though the flight was stressful this morning (apparently 2 year olds don't like to be strapped into a seat for 4.5 hours) I am so glad that we made this decision to come down here for the month of February.  It is the first time our passports have been used since we got married.  Sebastian's passport photo had every single security official cracking up at the various checkpoints.  Except the policia federales upon arrival.  They did not crack a smile.
