Todos Santos -"All Saints" - Hotel Guaycura

Located about two hours North of Cabo San Lucas you will find el pueblo mágico, Todos Santos.  It's like stepping back in time, a time when life was simple, quite and all of a sudden your racing mind disappears .  Hotel Guaycura

Breakfast on the rooftop - Desayuno - With a beautiful ocean view.  Todos Santos is know for great whale watching beginning in January to mid March.  This boutique hotel with 14 colonial style rooms was charming, the staff are lovely and greet you with a genuine smile.  The menu was full of authentic Mexican choices, and the best coffee.  I do look forward to our return.

Breakfast at Sky Lounge on the rooftop - Desayuno -

After breakfast we strolled through town for a little shopping at JOYERIA.  I found these hand painted Christmas ornaments, blue glasses, pitcher, stir sticks, and my favorite - The Apple. Manzana

Local Surf Shop

Todos Santos is know for its great surfing, and the wave called "Killer"  Hence the name - Experienced surfers only, recommended.

The Beach Club - A three mile ride from the hotel to an incredibly beautiful, private and tranquil beach.  Sometimes it's just what we need.

Beautiful private beaches for miles.  You can truly get relaxed and unplug here, it was quite nice to be wi-fi free for awhile.

Peaceful afternoon at The Beach Club.

Kick back at the pool while listening to authentic latin grooves.  Time stood still here at the beach club.  It's nice to "just be" and appreciate who you are and be present on your   journey.

YES, this is where we had lunch. Grilled Fish Tacos and the best homemade guacamole with homemade salsa and spicy red cabbage.  The best times in life are when you just become your surroundings.

The salsa was soooo spicy, which we love

Here's the interior of our "Taco Stand Treasure" and  my hat from the surf shop.

Right around the corner of the Hotel Guaycura you will find the Hotel California. You will feel like you stepped right into a colorful painting.  You will see artwork and handmade artifacts everywhere.  In front of Hotel California, take a seat on the sidewalk as the sun sets for local dining at  Santo Vino. 

Our dinner at Santo Vino, on the sidewalk in front of Hotel California was incredibly good.  Fresh caught fish, rice & vegetables, with a spicy maragarita.

Gracias, de nuestra comida era deliciosa!

Waterproof And Wonderful

Sadly yes, summer is almost over, but don't say goodbye to these products yet.  Winter is right around the corner, and why not put them to use for a few rain drops or snow days.

HOURGLASS BRONZER / LANCOME WATERPROOF MASCARA / BROWZA WATERPROOF EYEBROW PENCIL / ARIANE DUTZI HANDMADE CLUTCH At BEACH HOUSE BRAND

Away we went on one last summer jaunt.  I headed to Sephora for a few last minute waterproof   goodies. I try to keep it simple and quick when in and out of the water.  We are an on-th-go family when it comes to summer activities, and having just a few dependable products makes a big difference. 

I wore Lancôme's waterproof black mascara from morning to night, and it has a great brush to give a full, long lash effect.  My lashes are short, very light, and if I don't tint them they are pretty much invisible.  I can honestly say this mascara didn't smear or flake from the time I jumped in the water, until I showered for dinner.

Along with my light eyelashes emerge my eyebrows.  I wish I would have found this at the beginning of summer.  BROWZA -  and it does exactly what it says on the box - Wows your brows.  This gel pencil goes on so smooth, like a felt tip marker,  It has a brush on the other end for shaping, and yes... it's waterproof and sweat-proof.  This was a great find.

This ambient HOURGLASS lighting bronzer fuses the illuminating effects of ambient lighting powder with shades of bronzer to create that natural glow. It really gives a beautiful, and even glow to your skin.
