Mexico


So happy belated graduation, happy anniversary just happy days to us. In May we treated ourselves to a Little Vacation in Playa Del Carmen Mexico. We met some good Friends the Lee's there and just had a BLAST! It was our first time in an all inclusive resort and I have to say that made it sooo much fun. There was soo much to do just at the resort kayaking, catamaran, wind surfing, volleyball, dancing, all sorts of contests etc. Plus it was a really small resort so it was fun getting to know the workers.


So Day 1 was actually mother's day and I am sad Spencer is closing his eye's but isn't that how it goes- like so hard to get a picture where you both are looking ok. Anyways such a good mother's day considering I got a full body massage on the beach- aghh that was nice.




Spencer did multiple wind surfing lessons and was getting pretty good. I tried it and it was a lot harder than it looks.


Spencer was a sucker and got peer pressured into multiple contests. Here he is in the swim contest. He made it past the first round and beat the German by a hair but he was no match for the others. I think the funniest contest he did was the belly flop contest.



The beach at our resort- doesn't it just look like it's from a postcard!




Us and the Lee's at Senior Frogs'



Aghh this is the life isn't it. No kids demanding my attention. No laundry calling my name just pure relaxation!



So we did this WAY fun excursion at this newly developed tourist trap called Explor. It was so fun! We did 14 zip lines- some where we went in the water, we floated in cenotes (underwater caves with stalactites and stalagmites and crystal clear water), we rafted, we drove amphibious vehicles it was just fun!

Us and the Lee's once again



Another little adventure we went on was to this beautiful little cove where we snorkeled and floated this river that went into this cove. We also did a little cliff jumping.



Spencer looking his best in front of Tulum an ancient Mayan ruin that was right by the Ocean that was more of a port city where people came in from Europe or wherever to trade with the Mayans who mostly lived in another part Mexico so the Mayans would have to meet here to trade and then carry whatever they would trade for back into their towns which were miles away and hotter than hot!



Another lovely couples shot.



We saw these little critter's all over the place down there.



I know you were look for a swim suit shot so here you go. . .




Here is our little fish in the tub with the snorkels' we brought back.
