Just a few weeks ago, however, we were toasty warm in a very different way! Joined by Cassie and Trevor flying in from Toronto, we decided to take a vacation to Mexico for a week to enjoy some much needed relaxation and fun in the sun! Since most of our vacations entail a long drive and a busy week with friends and family, this vacation was special to us, as we were able enjoy a relaxing week while spending time with two of our favourite people! And of course, enjoying one of our favourite activities - the beach!
It was a wonderful week filled with lots of conversation, water, and sun! Our favourite spot was lounging in our reclining chairs at the beach next to the beach bar where Miguel (our favourite waiter!) brought us mango tangos and pina coladas while we soaked up the sun! We spent many hours snorkeling among the beautiful coral reefs where we saw starfish, an eel, rays, and tons of different kinds of tropical fish! We also enjoyed playing catch with our water skimming ball, and swimming in the ocean where we fed pelicans, seagulls, and a terrifying number of hungry fish! We also lounged in the pool, took a walk to the Port to see beautiful dolphins, manatees, and sea lions, and enjoyed some fantastic food! The buffets breakfasts and lunches were fantastic, amazing crepes and ice cream during the day, and delicious a la cartes including a steak house and a teppanyaki Japanese show!
Speaking of shows, the evening entertainment was fantastic, with shows like Aladdin, The Lion King, and a special Halloween show! Speaking of Halloween, they decorated the buffet with really fun and spooky decorations to celebrate Halloween! The four of us got into the Halloween spirit by dressing up as the Ninja Turtles - and we looked great!
All in all, we had a fantastic week with Cassie and Trevor in Mexico! I hope we get to go back soon!
Have a wonderful Holiday season everyone!
