Oh MEXICO!!!!!

We got back late last night from a fabulous week long vacation with my family near Cancun, Mexico. We stayed at this wonderful place where we had the whole resort to ourselves. It was a very unique place. They had tons and tons of things to do, from a zip line to mini golf, to an underground waterslide, to a pool, to ping pong. The kids loved it and so did the adults. The food was great and the service fantastic. I highly recommend it for a family reunion.

We also left the resort several times to venture out to the beaches for swimming, snorkeling and parasaling. (unfortunately I could not participate in the parasailing.)

But the best part was simply being with my family for the whole week. It was fun to catch up with my siblings who live far away. We were sad not to have Carol and her family with us.

Being that we were in the middle of the jungle, we saw lots of "natural" animal life. Like the tiny boa snake that decided to stretch out in Jean's cottage one night, lots of giant spiders, bats, and other jungle specimen. IT's a good thing that I wasn't the one who found that snake.

And I even found out that one of my siblings also voted for the "other" candidate. It was nice not to be the only dissenter in the family. :)
