Mexico So Far

Well we’ve been in Mexico for 2.5 days now and it’s been super fun. The weather hasn’t really been cooperating, but it’s so hot here that it doesn’t really matter.

Saturday when we checked in, my sister and I got upgraded to a Master Oceanfront room for one night because the room we booked wasn’t ready yet. We also got a $40 US credit in the gift shop for our inconvenience of taking said Master Suite. The room was epic and so awesome that we didn’t want to leave. But our regular room now is still nice and has a better view of the ocean.

The beach is gorgeous and the water is a crazy turquoise and so warm and nice. Our resort has 2 pools and a rooftop jacuzzi, plus hammocks everywhere. So lovely!

We’ve been to the market a few times and have figured out what to bring back with us. I want to get some tequila (obviously), vanilla, cocoa, hot sauce, and coffee for BF. I saw some beautiful scarves and I might pick one or two up as well.

Today we went to the ruins of Chichen-Itza, which is one of the Seven New Wonders of the World. It cost $99 for an all day tour. We stopped at a little roadside market, then to the ruins for a tour and a delicious buffet lunch. After that, we went to an underground cave for swimming, then to the centre of a town (forgot the name) to look at the historic buildings. Well worth the money!

Tomorrow I am hitting up the resort gym, and then my mom, sister and I have a spa date for a massage and facial.

We still have to decide what other activities we want to do. Perhaps a trip to Cozumel! I really want to do zip lining or something adventurous, but nobody else is into it. Boo!

Anyway I hope you all are having a fabulous week!
