Only a few weeks have passed since we returned home from Mexico, but it already feels so far away. We have been to Mexico multiple times but each time that we get to go, we consider ourselves so lucky to have the chance to escape to paradise for awhile. On the last several trips, we have taken some type of excursion and found a little bit of adventure outside of the resort. This year we talked about a few options, but finally decided that we both just needed the time to completely rest and relax. So....we went nowhere and did very little other than hang out on the beach and nap in the room...and it was glorious. The weather was cool and rainy - probably more rain than I have ever had in all of my trips, and it was pretty windy most of the time. We spent some time at the pool trying to escape the wind, and hung out under the palapas when it would rain. A few times when the weather got really wild, we finally gave in and had to run through the rain back to our room where we showered and napped the rest of the afternoon. As a total sun seeker, I definitely prefer that the days be warm and hot, but even in bad weather, it was still so nice to just hang out and relax.
The best part of the trip...even better than all of the naps...was just spending time together. Our lives are so busy right now and we never get enough time with each other. Any conversation we try to have at home usually involves multiple interruptions by Luke and Ruby so it was fantastic to just talk and to feel so much more connected. Turns out beach vacations are amazing for our marriage!
Even Santa Clause loves Mexico
