MEXICO

 

In may we went to Mexico and it was amazing!!! Theres just something about Mexican chips and pico. The water was so warm and looked like blue Gatorade. Basically every day we had the same schedule: 

- wake up around 7:30am 
- head down to the breakfast buffet. I had an omelet with diced peppers, onions, tomatoes and ham and a little cheese pretty much every day with a side of cantaloupe, honeydew, and pineapple.
- beach, pool, kids pool (like a kids water park with a giant water balloon in a pool that you can climb on and slide down), repeat. 
- snack break for a virgin pina colada or a soft serve ice cream cone
- back to the beach/ pool rotation until 4:30
- head to the room to shower and put on nice clothes for dinner
- go to the dinner reservation (we went to a new restaurant every night. Steak, surf and turf, Mexican food, Italian cuisine, hibachi (where they cook in front of you, etc.) 
- swing by the cafe for a chocolate croissant and some live music before the show
- watch the show at the outdoor auditorium (acrobat show, singing show, circus show, Disney character show) with drinks which for me was usually a virgin mojito or a coke with a lime.
- then we went back to the room and went to bed before doing it all over again the next day! 

Some random fun things we did:

- We learned how to sail with Ralph and went sailing on a tiny sail boat just me and Noah one day! It was awesome! 
- Another day we rode jet skis and saw giant sea turtles on the water which was wild. Noah also whipped me off and I fell into the dark part of the water and was swimming like my life depended on it. I was fine haha

- I went to a morning yoga class out by the beach by myself. It was such a great way to start my morning and I wished they did them every day!

- We rode a janky boat to an island and spent the day in the shops, at the beach eating coconut popsicles, and riding golf carts
- We also played random games of beach volleyball 

- One day me and Noah went to the beach for a late night walk. We kept doing dares to swim in the dark water but we kept chickening out. We did actually swim to the buoys one night but we had seen sting rays and barracudas (one was like 6ft long!) so it was kind of scary. 

- We took family pictures one night on the beach. We do it every year for the Yarro Christmas card, but it was especially windy this time which was kind of funny.

- We also swam in the giant super long pools late one night and watched a raccoon steal food like 5 feet away from where we were swimming haha! 
- And we went shell hunting out by the pier
