I have returned from a trip to Cabo, Mexico.  It was fun.  The sun, the pool, etc. etc.  But I did notice our shuttle drivers went a little too fast, boy it was scary! 

Cabo is building up more and more. I bet that place explodes in like 10 years.  More and more resorts are going up along the beach.  It’s a beautiful place.  And it seems like the sun is always shining! 

There are not many roadways.  Mostly a main road, then several small ones.  The main road is crazy though! I can only imagine there are some nasty accidents on that road if two vehicles hit head on.

We talked with our shuttle driver quite a bit on the way back. He says gas prices are up there too, slightly, but not only is that causing a headache, the quality of gas there is bad too.  He says he can totally feel a difference in the way his vehicles drive.  Especially the vans and SUV’s they use for airport transportation. 

He joked and said when he fills up, he doesn’t know whether to pump it in his car or drink it!   Oh boy.

I would definitley recommend Cabo though.   If you take Mexicana airlines you can get a nonstop flight both ways.  You do need a passport.  But the flight is only 2 1/2 hours! 

Book a shuttle ahead of time to get you to and from the airport.  Make sure to ignore the people trying to sell you time shares, and if you stay near Cabo San Lucas plan a half hour shuttle ride to your resort.  Most likely your resort will have everthing you are looking for!  You can even get an all inclusive package so you never have to leave! 

If you travel into town, it will cost you about 15 dollars for a cab ride.  You can pretty much make a deal with the driver on what you are willing to pay.  There are many different restaurants down there.  Plan ahead though, it’s easier knowing where you want to go.   It’s such a quick and easy trip for those of us that live in Southern Nevada.  

And the best part,  it’s cheap!

 Just make sure to buckle up in the cab and on those shuttle rides!!!

Horses on the road.  Yes, in a city as big as Las Vegas, we still see people that ride horses for transportation.   Many times you will see this in North Las Vegas or in the Northwest part of the valley. 

So a viewer asked me…. are they allowed in the road?  

Well, here’s the answer.  There are no clear cut laws on this, but basically, police say horse riders must follow the same rules of the road as bicyclists.

Pedestrians have the right of way.  You must walk your horse across the cross walk. 

And, most importantly, police say you MUST pick up after your horse!!  If you know what I mean!

I know a lot of horse lovers in town, and we want every one of them to be safe. 

I received many emails from people after I aired my What’s Driving You Crazy?! segment on this. 

Susan from Pahrump made a good point!  She says, “Not just here, but all around the U.S. people are using their horses as A means of transportation. Why? The increase of fuel stops alot of us from doing alot of the things we used to enjoy. If you need A loaf of bread and the store is only A couple of miles away it is more fuel efficient to hop on your horse instead of in your car. ”

I love it!
