Mexico in March

Well Bill an I went to Mexico over a month ago now, and I still haven't written about it!  We met up with our dear friends Brian and Hilary Miller, and Scott and Dori Miller.  Hilary and I have been dreaming of going on vacation together since we met 16 years ago, so it was about time!
This was the view from our room which was on the fourth floor

Not such a bad sight to wake up to every day.

Cruise ships would come close and anchor down, they were HUGE.

First thing our first morning was to hop the bus and ride down to Wal-Mart.
Brian and Hilary had already been there for a week so this was their third trip to the store, which worked for us because they were great tour guides.

In the bakery section everything was set out and you grab a tray and tongs and away you go! I loved it. The little rolls you see on my platter were cheese/ham roll ups that were to DIE FOR!

THERE WAS SO MUCH GUACAMOLE!!!! 
We spent 80% of our time by the pool, no regret there!

Bill and Brian were quick to show off their hand-stand moves, Hilary was enthusiastic about it but her execution wasn't quite as graceful.  Nice try Lary!!

On the day of the Japanese earthquake we weren't sure what would be happening on our coast so we decided to go to a sister hotel that was WAY up on the side of a hill.  They had a beautiful sky/eternity pool.

Waiting for our bus ride back to our hotel.

These guys were right by the pool.

They were entertaining Hilary and I during one of our game nights.


Besides the pool, beach volleyball was our other favorite past-time. Nothing like bottoms full of sand to really make a game fun!


"Miss, name your price, make me an offer..."


"No...no thank you.... no... nope... no gracias..."


We enjoyed quite a few meals at this great reastuarant a short walk from the resort.  Brian was very helpful with his Spanish.  We felt quite safe wandering around, and the food was deLISH!


Can't leave without one fancy dinner...

Or a swim in the ocean....

On our way out we saw this arrive, I'm sure these folks were going to have a GREAT time!


We had a wonderful time, so thankful for our wonderful friends who shared a great experience with us.  Plenty of laughter, sunshine, relaxation, and pina coladas :)
