Cabo San Lucas...

































We had a blast! I feel like vacation is the lifestyle I was destined to be a part of! Dreams Resort Los Cabos was fantastic! We took full advantage of all of the resort's conveniently located bars. My favorites...The two pool bars...Swim up bars with stools right in the water. It doesn't get much better than that! Aside from torturing our livers we soaked up a lot of sun and did bunch of relaxing...I feel like we did a really good job coping with all of the relaxing that we had to tackle. One of the lessons I learned was that I need to have a hammock in my life full time. I have known that...but somehow it had slipped out of my memory banks. Operation: Acquire Hammock is in full swing.

We met an awesome couple from Canada, Greg and Natalie, they were getting married at the resort. Aaaand have since been married, Congrats guys! This post is a little past due...Since we have been back Greg and Natalie had a few days stay in San Diego on their honeymoon tour up the CA coast. We got a chance to hangout with them for two of their nights here...Great people! Hope the rest of the trip was fantastic! Great to meet you guys!

Cabo San Lucas itself...Meh. Your typical touristy Mexican city...I am glad we checked it out but it wasn't all that impressive. The allure of the all inclusive at the resort had me spoiled. One of my favorite spots we did check out was a bar/restaurant called "The Office". That place is an awesome little hub of excitement right on the beach. I highly recommend it...Thanks for the tip, Steve!

For now...enjoy the photos! I have a few relaxing videos to post...Once I get off my butt and fire up some video editing software. I will keep you posted.

<<<<----UPDATE---->>>>>

Here are the videos...Enjoy!

North Carolina Trip: Part Nine...The Finale



















Last bit of the trip we stopped in to visit with Mr. B...Meggy's band director.

The first photos are being taken during his response to Megan's Mom's comment of, "Megan was so shy."

To which Mr. B replied, "Uhh...yea...Megan may have been shy freshman year...buuuut Senior year I don't think she was too shy."

Great guy...Everyone who I have ever met that knows this guy has had nothing but amazing things to say about him.

After our visit we swang by the Havelock Visitors Center...just missing visitor hours..so I snapped a few photos of aircraft out front.

And lastly cruising in the Malibu back to Wilmington. Great trip! Thank you again EVERYONE for all the hospitality and good times!

North Carolina Trip: Part Eight...









Meggy and I got a VIP tour of the local haunts, hotspots and watering holes. Tun's Tavern, BT's and lastly Olivia's...which I sadly learned that they did not sell souvenir t-shirts. I think they should...It'd be a big seller.

North Carolina Trip: Part Seven...

















For Mother's Day/Megan's Mother's Birthday we took her out to dinner at The Beaufort Grocery. I am pretty sure everyone enjoyed it...I sure did! Before dinner we took the scenic route to Beaufort and made a stop off at Fort Macon. Awesome old fort from the Civil War days. Really cool to see...Awesome location!

North Carolina Trip: Part Six...









After dinner we cruised to Beaufort to check out a little bit of the Beaufort Music Fest. Awesome historic town...tons of beautifully restored old homes. The moon was amazing that night.

North Carolina Trip: Part Five...

























The next morning after the graduation festivities we took the drive up to Havelock, NC...Meggy's hometown. We were greeted by Megan's mom and dad and an amazing line up of food! Lamb roasted on a spit, Pulled pork sandwiches with homemade coleslaw, Sweet Potato Wedges, Satay Chicken Skewers with Peanut sauce, Three different cakes with fresh strawberries for topping. Absolutely amazing spread! Delicious! Megan got to see all kinds of peoples she hadn't seen in quite some time. Awesome day out! Visited, ate, had a few beers...solid!
