Late Vacation Photos

20160805_161303

We have pictures on too many devices now (2 phones, 1 tablet, 2 cameras, 2 computers) so I keep forgetting to do blog entries and when I do remember, I can’t find the pictures I’m looking for. I need a better system!

Anyway, here are a few pictures from our trip to Cancun earlier this month.

When we arrived, we had lunch at our favorite lunch place with our favorite waiter. Doug ordered the grouper and got the WHOLE grouper.

We spent the whole week before watching a Tropical Wave turn into a Tropical Depression turn into Hurricane Earl. Thankfully it passed before we got there and considerably away from Cancun.

We arrived on the day of the Olympic Opening Ceremonies so there were lots of special things including this rice art on our bed.

The hallways have glass walls so we went to the top floor to check out the view of the ocean and the bay at the same time.

We spent most of our time relaxing in our beachfront cabana.

20160807_212320We planned our dinners around which restaurant had live music. The mariachi was great!

I tried to memorize this view so I can think about it when it is cold and dark in January!
