Friday, our 4th day in Cabo, was "Donna's Day." Donna, an amazing woman and very very close friend of the family, lost her long battle to cancer last July. On Friday morning we took out the Awesome and Too Awesome, Theresa's (Donna's sister) boats, to go and spread Donna's ashes. There were about 25 people and we all celebrated Donna's life as we talked about stories and memories that we had with our inspirational friend. The flowers and ashes sinking into the water were a sight to see that I'll never forget. During the boatride, the Too Awesome came across a mama and baby humpback whale breaching. Unfortunately Chad and I were on the Awesome about 15 minutes ahead and missed the sight. When we had passed through that area you could see the whales just swimming through the water but they weren't putting on a show for our boat... We also saw manna rays, probably hundreds, jumping out of the water. It was so neat! We got back to the house Friday late afternoon and the "neighbors," Gabe & Jessica, arrived shortly after to join our trip!
