on the move again

well here i am in mexico, in cabo san lucas. it really is a lot more touristy that i was hoping for, and the surf is non-existent (one of the reasons i came here), but i have a nice little room in town, and the beach is still beautiful, the water that colour of blue.
i met a nice couple last night, jared and carlin, from Houston. he's on the green building council up there, so we had lots to talk about. they were sweet, quite bright, and very chatty in that particular american way. despite everything else that's said about americans, they really are painfully friendly. anyways, they insisted on buying my drinks, so i was in bed by about 12:30. spent the day walking the length of the beach today, found some secluded rocks at the end to do some qi gong, meditate. you can see the arch, Land's End, from those rocks; it divides the pacific from the sea of cortes. so, despite the slightly over-priced nature of it all, cabo's okay. plus, it's warm. who can complain about that?
