For our 10 year anniversary, John decided to do something really special for me. He took me to Cancun!

When we got to Cancun, It had all been worth it! The weather was beautiful! It was all so relaxing and enjoyable. +Our+last+day+(9).JPG)
We stayed at a beautiful all inclusive resort that was right on the beach. It was an awesome hotel! We could go down to the beach (the water was perfect!) or sit at the pool and swim up to the in pool bar (only virgin drinks for us of course). We could eat what we wanted when we wanted. There was always a restaurant open and room service was included which was nice in the +Our+last+day+(3).JPG)

Our first full day there we went to Chitzen Itza. What an amazing place. It baffles me that structures built so long ago by a people almost extinct are still around. We took a tour and then had a bit of time to ourselves to explore. +Chitzen+Itza+(20).JPG)

It was a nightmare getting there. First we drove home from Delta on Christmas night in a blizzard! We went 30m/h the whole way! What normally takes lest than 2 hours took over 4! Then we couldn't pull into our driveway, because we had snow 2 feet deep in our driveway, and only rear wheel drive! Long story short, we didn't get to bed until 2:00 am. Then we got up and drove in more snow to the airport, stood in long lines that weren't moving. We wouldn't have made it onto our flight if John hadn't told a Delta Airlines worker our sob story. It worked and we finally made it through security just in time to jump on the plane and leave. Wow!

We also went Snorkeling while we were in Cancun. It was my first time ever. It was really fun and quite amazing to swim with the fish and see that they're there with you. It takes
a bit of time to get used to the snorkel gear though. At first I had a hard time putting my face in the water and breathing at the same time. Once I got used to it, though, I couldn't get enough of it.

Our guide found a turtle, and we got it's picture! Pretty amazing! +Our+last+day.JPG)
All in all it was a very relaxing break and a great place to get away from all the snow and the stresses of life.+Chitzen+Itza+(17).JPG)

Sounds perfect and totally awesome! I went to Cancun on my Senior Trip. It was before I joined the Church and I am sad to say that I don't remember much about that beautiful place. I do remember that I threw up at Chitzen Itza because I partied a little too hard the night before. Glad those days are over! Your pictures are beautiful!
how fun! I'm jealous!
Looks like you guys had a great vacation! We know where to go for our next vacation.
Ughh! I need this kind of vacation!! It looks like SO much fun!
What a fun vacation just the 2 of you! It looks beautiful and peaceful.
What a great trip! I like the idea of an all inclusive resort. I didn't know they did that. That's why I like cruises.
