28 years!!!

Thats how many years TJ and I have been married as of Oct 16 2009!!! Each year we try to go somewhere and/or do something we havent done before. Some of our adventures included just staying at home with a romantic dinner, or going on a hot air balloon or going on a trip to London and Paris. Sooo what to do on the 28th year??? We didnt have a ton of time to play with or money either. We looked and looked for the good deals out there.. nothing immediately... I really thought we were going to stay at motel 6 in Daytona which wouldve been fine 1. we were together and 2. its something we havent done before--hehe!! However, my wonderful brilliant husband went to cheapcarribean.com and found a terrific all incusive resort in Cancun Mexico!!! It was the right price and we both had 4 days off to go!!! It was exactly what we needed-- relaxation AND adventure!! Sooo, the plans were set-- he would pick me up at work and we would run away to mexico via spirit airlines. One minute I was in my scrubs and the next I was changing in the car and at the airport... sooo fun!!! When we finally got to the resort, after the timeshare people were done with us I just had to show TJ the view.. really beautiful-- we couldl hardly wait to get our swimsuits and head for the beach--no sleeping for me-- too much excitement. The water was perfect... not too cold and clear-- the weather was perfect-- the atmosphere was relaxing and all was exactly what I needed. We found the perfect spot on the beach under an umbrella where I did take a short nap while TJ found the nearest hot tub. The next day we pretty much did the same-- except in the morning I was able to join a yoga class which overlooked the ocean in the morning--a perfect way to start the day. Since this was our actual anniversary day (Oct 16th), we decided to do something adventurous--- Parasailing!!! Yep, I went parasailing and Yes I was a bit nervous, scared whatever else you want to call it-- but it was wonderful and not scary at all. I felt completely safe and was well worth the experience!! Of course we had to ride on a jet ski to get to the boat and I have never been on jet skis before so yet another adventure as well-- sort of 2 for one!! After that.. a bit of relaxation before dinner and a pool party. The next day took us away from the resort to go see "Tulum" I have been wanting to see Tulum for years-- the ancient ruins in mexico.. I love to see how people lived so many many many years ago. Luckily, there was also an ocean there and so we could cool off a bit. Then we went to this place where you can go tubing, snorkling etc-- we had fun there as well.. at the end of the day we were exhausted but happy-- such a fun day! Our last day it was a bit rainy sooo we went shopping--yeah!!! The shopping areas were not far from the resort so we took a city bus and was there in just a few short minutes. We found some cute things for christmas gifts and happily went back to the resort once the sun came out and back to the pool and beach we went. The last night we also had the best dinner.. everything was wonderful! We were sad to leave--but I guess all adventures have to end sometime. Also, we missed the kids, dogs and our own bed.... Until next year... let the adventure continue..... Pictures are on the way.
