I agree .... it was handled better than ur-pe and AK is doing it the right way as frustrating as it may be for us and you guys... we had a conference call yesterday, outlining the rest of 2008 and 2009.. it was very exciting.. but they asked it to be kept confidential, so that they can roll out the program to everyone the 'right way'...

We are on our final day here at cabo...

Yesterday we went ziplining...I highly reccomend it if you are in cabo... We also had dinner at C's at Palmilla... That was awesome... incredibly expensive..but well worth it for out a 'night' out..

A few lessons learned...

1) Don't wait till you get to the foreign country to try to find english books...duh!

2) When using the destination host to shop for you... and you are on vacation for a week... only plan out your first 48 hours of needs and then have the destination host only buy what you need for 48 hours. You will never remember everything for a full week and your destination host will probably not buy something quite right (wrong brand, wrong size)

3) We have two kids 3 years and 5 months.. we didn't use the babysitting enough...and therefore felt a little restricted.. on the next trip...I'm going to have full time baby sitting... even if we are lounging around the house, it helps with the baby, when the 3 year old is in the pool.

That's how I use the host as well. I actually just order the guacamole in the afternoon, restock the wine supply, and the groceries that we need for the next day or so. I think trying to plan meals and groceries for an entire week is too demanding and saps the spontanaiety of vacation.
