Cabo Loco

Boats in the marina, Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur.

While I was stranded in Cabo San Lucas waiting for repairs on my van to be completed, I tried to keep busy, and have some fun.  So one evening, I set up to shoot a time-lapse sequence of a busy part of what is really downtown Cabo, or at least the part of the city where the action is, bars, clubs, restaurants, and tons of tourists, very near the marina.  The time-lapse was shot from an elevated platform at La Vaquita ("the little cow"), one of many clubs in Cabo, 1/2 a block up from the marina, near the intersection of Lazaro Cardenas, Blvd. Paseo de la Marina, and Ignacio Zaragota.  I shot at 1 second intervals for about 3 hours, starting a little after 5:00 pm local time.  I had hoped to really capture the insanity that is Cabo, but while things do get busy after dark, I think things really don't get crazy until much later, when Cabo goes loco, especially when you add Spring breakers to the mix.  The sequence is a bit long, longer than I would like, but I am still working on my video editing skills.
