Random Fun Cabo jumbo pic dump, #1

Catrina dolls and other wonderful death dolls at Mi Casa Restaurant. They are hand-made, of painted clay appropriately enough, and expensive.

Whever I want something but have no use for it and don't want to spend the $, I just take a snap of it. Then I own it, in a way. I am trying to teach Mrs. BD that approach to things - symbolic possession by internalizing an image or idea. But does it work for designer shoes?

More below the fold -

Desert

San Jose Del Cabo Airport

Some snaps of Cabo San Lucas. Dig the old Viagra guy:

One of the bars on the marina - Free Beer with a college ID -

More pharamacies. No prescriptions needed -

Another marina restuarant/bar -

Cactus forest -

a pic of our place, early morning walk -

Our hotel lobby. It ain't Motel 6:

The chapel at our place. All of the nice resort places have chapels, but with Masses only only Sundays - not enough priests for daily Masses:

Morning surf -

Swimmable beach on the Sea of Cortez. Those hills and rocks are "Land's End," the southernmost tip of Baja:

Some random pics around Cabo:

Mexican house

The Cabo WalMart:

These are great pics, Bird Dog but a Walmart slipped in to your present.

That's alright.

Random super picky thingy dooer...

Catrina dolls. An artist by the name of Jose Posada created an image of "La Calavera de la Catrina" or "The Skull of A Female Dandy". The costumed female and male dolls became part of the Day of The Dead festivities in Mexico.

I only know this because the Mrs. has a collection of them that she puts out every Halloween. I read the description off one of the boxes she has them in. :>)
