I am blogging this from our resort in Mexico. When I get home, I know things will be incredibly busy and I’ll want to spend time with the kids and not be spending time blogging. Not to mention my other list of “things to worry about AFTER our trip.”
Anyway, mostly I want to say that this entire list has been complete paradise. I highly recommend going to a full service, all inclusive resort like this one. I have never been pampered like this in all my life and I don’t know how I will adjust to life in the real world after being this spoiled!
And to leave you, because I have to go get ready for our Farewell Reception (sniff!), in no particular order, My “Top Five Cancun Memories:”
1. When our group was going through Customs in the Mexican airport, they had the dogs sniffing all of our bags. The dog started jumping all over one of the ladies in our group. The lady, who I’d guess at about 65, was clearly terrified of the dog. Turned out she had a banana in her bag, which was quickly confiscated.
2. There is a jacuzzi tub in our room. The first night we were here we decided to try it out. I was putting stuff away while Bucket was getting the tub going. After a few minutes I realized I didn’t hear water running yet for some reason. I walked over to the tub, where Bucket looked completely lost. He looked at me, and I swear I’m not making this up, he said, “So are we supposed to put ocean water in it or what?” I’ve been laughing about that the whole trip.
3. Zip lining UPSIDE DOWN. Nuff said.
4. Sitting on a couch outside the hotel, snuggled up with my Bucket, drinking froo froo girlie drinks and listening to the sound of the ocean.
5. Bucket trying to get a plain, unsweetened iced tea. He’s been trying the whole trip. He’s gotten sweet tea, long island iced tea and once, he came very close by getting unsweetened tea with absolutely no ice.
Talk to you again when I’m back in the States.
