I've never bargained over prices before - it was a whole new ballgame! I did not hassel over this gorgeous fan but they were the best price in Cabo compared to Puerta Vallarta.
I did, however, bargain for these beautiful Mexican opal earrings and if you know me at all, you know that I love earrings. These are beyond my ability to make but perhaps in the future, I may learn how to do insets and how to work with metals.
Notice how they have the colors of the ocean - my camera cannot do them justice! These are not for sale - they are mine, all mine.
This area is where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean.
This gigantic floating hotel was our home base for seven days. I walked from one end of the ship to the other at least a dozen times and Sandy and I noticed that you could never see the end of the hall - it went on and on just like in one of Dr. Who's episodes where he seemed to be climbing stairs and more stairs like when a computer goes into a macro repeating stint over and over with the same function.

Lovely souvenirs you brought home to remind you of your wonderful holiday. The earrings are such a gorgeous colour.
More gorgeous photos and I like your blue earrings. So is purple your favorite color? Did you make all those earrings on Esty? Nice ship!

The water is such a deep, gorgeous blue!!! And that FAN!!! Were I ever to get a serious case of the vapours, it's beauty would quickly revive me! Wonderful earrings, I have always loved opals. Are these fire opals?
Oh I LOVE your earrings, Ruth. They are just beautiful. It looks like you had such a marvelous time and I am so glad you were able to do that- xo Diana
How exciting! I've always wanted to go on a cruise. It seems like so much fun. I love that fan, too.
Your fan is so beautiful - I love the colour. The sea in your photos is the most perfect blue:)
