The Van Bakel's View: MEXICO

We survived our trip to Mexico with no problems. It was lots of fun!!!!!! We were pretty busy the whole time which was nice but we wish we would have stayed longer with just us to relax a few days before coming back. Here is the break down of who went and what we did.

We flew in to Cancun with two other couples-John and Jenny and Billy and Jenny. Russ and Lynn got there a little before we did,and then there were 2 other couples that had been there for a few days- Dave and Sara and Steve and ______. I know its awful that I don't know her name!!!!! Anyways when we got there on Sunday we got into our swimsuits and went to the pool bar. After closing down that bar we went and changed and went to another bar and then had a really late steak dinner. Monday was spent all day at the pool. Andrew and I had dinner that night by ourselves for our anniversary at the Japenese steak house. It was really good!!!! Tuesday morning some of us went into town to shop. We didn't buy much just some vanilla. Then after lunch we all went snorkeling. It was lots of fun, I had been before but enjoyed this more than I had remembered. We saw two sharks and some other neat fish. Tuesday for dinner we just ate at the resort and then went and had drinks afterwards. Wednesday morning some of us went to Wet n Wild. Wet n Wild there is owned by the same people as our resort so it did not cost us anything. It was fun to do something different. After that Andrew wanted to go to the beach but it was rainng so we took a nap. Later that afternoon we went into town to meet one of the couples at Margartitaville. I had never been to one of these restaurants and I really liked it. After Margaritaville we went to Pat O'Briens. We all had a really good time and ended the evening early although it seemed much later than it really was. Then early Thursday morning we began our journey back home. I was glad to be home but could have actually stayed a little longer. It has been quite a few years since I have been to Mexico and am already ready to go back.
