We have talked about and planned for this family trip for about 4 years. We wanted to take our family of seven to a resort in Mexico to celebrate our 50th anniversary (June 6, 2020). Covid interfered like it did for many people and many plans. Finally, the stars and planets aligned and we all boarded planes (us from SD and OFD from MN) on Saturday morning for a week in Cancun.
Here are some photos from Day 1 and part of Day 2.
This scene greeted us when we entered our room.
K & C (our FS & FDIL) arranged this welcome and surprise for us.
chocolate covered strawberries & champagne
very thoughtful and much appreciated
and a towel sculpture
the g'kids spent some time in the ocean on Saturday
we enjoyed family time at dinner in the Mexican restaurant at the resort
(there's OFD for those who were concerned she wasn't with us)
we all tried prickly pear salad
the green is the prickly pear
the white is cheese
with marinated grilled tomatoes, onions and peppers
interesting and tasty
This is the view from the balcony of our room. The two people near the pool's edge are our grands. This pool was rather quiet at 8 this morning. It got much busier later in the morning. It is one of 3 resort pools, plus the ocean. By the end of Day 2, they have been in every pool!
they enjoyed the water slide
the tubes for the two water slides
a view of the lagoon from the water slide area
the adults were chilling by the pool this morning
until it got too warm and time for some lunch
my coffee drink this morning
came upon this iguana as we walked to the beach for lunch
