Mexico Part II

For whatever reason I don't have any pictures from day 3!

That morning the girls all had a massage on the beach.  So, so relaxing!  It was one of the best things about the trip.  That evening Jo and I went to the buffet to eat and the rest of the group had reservations to eat at one of the restaurants. Alan came back to the room after dinner and was pretty toasty!  It was entertaining!

On day 4, we spent the morning at the beach, the middle of the day in the pool, dinner reservations at the fondue restaurant, and then we went to Coco Bongo.  I really wish we had went to Coco Bongo earlier on during the week.  It was our last night there and we had to be up early the next morning for our flight and I was not interested in drinking.  Alan and I left early but the show was really awesome.  It's just not a place you wanna be if you aren't drinking!

Now for the fun part.....PICTURES!







 Story: Thad is a Type I Diabetic so at times he had to get out of the pool, hook himself up to his insulin pump and chill on the balcony.  On this particular day, I decided to chill with him so he wouldn't be up there by himself.  Somehow that turned into him painting my nails, me painting his nails and him giving me this lovely "tattoo" on my foot!  I think it's the wrong color though...

 Alan's missing


This was the drinks for 4 people.  We didn't have room for our food because of all our drinks...






On the plane...so not wanting to come home...

Mexico!!!

Is it possible to have the best vacation ever twice in one year???  Because I'm pretty sure it happened to me and Alan.

We spent 5 days here....

with 7 of our other friends...and it was wonderful!  I can't wait to go on another trip like this.  If you have never been somewhere all inclusive.....start planning!  It's definitely the way to go! We stayed at the Grand Sunset Princess in Playa Del Carmen...

Thursday evening we drove to Atl and got a hotel.  That night we all went out to eat at my favorite place....
then we made a quick trip to Wal-Mart and then headed back to our hotel.

Friday morning, we had to be up early to get to the airport.  Our flight left at 9:50 so we got there around 7:00.  Brandon, Alan, and Brit had never flown and most of the group had never been out of the country so I was expecting some issues.  However, everything went great. We flew from Atl to Miami and then to Cancun.  I have no clue what time we got to our resort, but we checked it, and immediately got in the pool.  We had a pool side room so we literally walked out of our room and we were in the pool.

It was one of the best things about our vacation.  We were there about......5 minutes before everyone was headed to the swim up bar to get drinks.

Right off the bat, we met some random, fun people at the pool.  One girl had lived in Memphis for a while.  None of us had eaten much during the day.  We were starving and drunk tipsy when we went to dinner at the buffet.  Pretty sure most of us went with soaking wet hair and in a horrible outfit.  Joanna and I actually left dinner a little early and went back to the room.

Saturday, we got up and went to the beach, played in the pool, and Brandon, Alan, and I went exploring...



Supporting my Vols!!!


That night we had reservations at one of the Mexican restaurants at the resort

 Supporting the Vols again...

 The group...

Brandon got a bit drunk prior to dinner and at least 2 different table moved away from us because he was being so loud.  We were all entertained/embarrassed.  It was pretty funny though.  He kept yelling that he liked Taco Bell better and that there was bat shit on his plate!  Definitely glad there was noone around we knew.
 This is him pissing relieving himself in the bushes...right outside of the restaurant.  I still can't believe we didn't get kicked out of the resort this night
 Jo and Margaux taking him back to his room.
