Our trip to Cancun was nothing short of amazing. We spent 5 nights, 6 days and Grandma Cathe was home taking care of our little ones. We stayed at Villa del Palmar room 2406A, and I always want to remember that because it was the most amazing room ever. Check out that view. I will also always remember Forrest's first time seeing the Caribbean, and getting in that warm water with him. We had such a magical time it is almost hard to put into words. It truly felt like Heaven on earth, and we both dream of bringing our kids back one day. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to take this trip.

View from our room. We "tipped" the receptionist $40 at the desk and were upgraded to this ocean view suite. Priceless. |
|
Our balcony. I literally cried tears of joy in that hammock our first night there out of sheer joy for being there. |
|
Our beautiful hotel bedroom. |
|
Forrest's first time on the Caribbean, walking out to the beach from our resort. |
|
First time placing feet in the white sand. |
|
Beach at our resort. |
|
Buffet breakfast. This food was *amazing* and so authentic! My favorite was the bananas in cream with coconut. |
|
My honey trying out his snorkel gear. |
|
One of the pools at our resort. The kids would've loved this. |
|
This was the Ultra Mar ferry we took to Isla Mujeres. |
|
Day 1: Isla Mujeres. North Beach, accredited as the most beautiful beach on the Caribbean. Live music, fresh mango, swimming, snorkeling, and lying out in the hot sun with a little shopping afterwards. |
|
Day 2: Xcaret. We did an underwater Sea Trek and explored the park. Lots of wildlife. |
|
This guy was a fan and as you walked by him he blew air. |
|
Day 3: Cozumel. This was our favorite day by far. |
|
Snorkel trip in Cozumel. Look at that blue water! Mesmerizing. |
|
Our snorkel guide. |
|
Beach on the east side of Cozumel. We scootered there. I never wanted to leave this place. Most magical day ever. |
|
Dinner on Cozumel (this is where Forrest drank the smoothie and got sick.) |
|
Across from the ferry station. |
|
Last full day at the resort, drinking tea on our balcony not wanting to leave. It's a good thing we stuck around because Forrest got really sick that night and we had to call the missionaries for a blessing. |
|
I had about 2 hours to myself on the beach and it was utterly relaxing. |
|
Sipping virgin pina coladas and strawberry mango-tangos. |
|
Forrest did join me for a little bit but was not well enough to jet ski or do much. |
|
One last view the day of our departure. Goodbye Caribbean, we will miss you! Until next time! |
Hope you had a nice vacation. Cancun is indeed an amazing place for vacationing, where there are countless places to explore and enjoy. Tour excursions there offer many activities for different likes.
