As PROMISED I'm sharing pics from my Vaca :)
{WARNING LOL lots of picz}
I usually take a few vacations throughout the year
BUT since my new job I haven't really been able to get away as much
So this Mexico trip has really been a TREAT!
{ 07. 08. 09 }
I LOVE that so clever :)
I've never been to an ALL Inclusive vacation before...
I definitely didn't know what I was missing :)
Its my NEW FAVORITE
and I feel like its totally the WAY TO GO on vaca hahaha
*If you just want to RELAX, lay on the beach/pool & have no worries*
ALL inclusive included ALL meals including room service & Mini Bar
which was refilled every day
ALL drinks including any type of alcoholic beverage
also all TIPS was included in the package as well.
I wouldn't have spent a single dime on anything if I didn't get a SPA service
It was the BEST!
It was so relaxing! The toughest decision I had to make each day
was what type of food did I feel like eating
and since its ALL inclusive
if you cant make up your mind about which entree you want
you can order both & it doesnt make any difference :)
I also LOVED the part where they opened our dinner all at the same time :)
Although I never ordered 2 entrees, I did however order plenty of desserts :) YUM!
Loved the coconut flavored ice cream with this chocolate creme brule
Then came wedding day :)
It rained in the morning
BUT by 3:00 it was all cleared up
& you couldn't even tell
(BTW they have weddings at Dreams 3 times a day! holy moly!!!)
Eric is Irish and wanted the fellas to wear Kilts
which was a crowd pleaser lots of guests throughout the resort
stopped him & Mel to take pics
and heres the ladies very pretty in sage :)
Here's the Bride & Groom filling up their Unity Frame
which I thought was an AWESOME idea!!!!
Oh heres the dress that I ended picking out :)
The Mariachi Band played us some tunes
while they prepared the Banquet room & the guests ate
Hors d'oeuvres & drank Champagne
SO FUN!
My Favorite part of the wedding dinner was
this amazing cup thingy made out of Asiago cheese YUMMMMMY :)
The end of the wedding
The NEXT day
the group decided to go
an ADVENTURE to visit the Tulum Ruins
we saw some authentic Mayans dancing :)
I also found some Iggys this was a pretty big one!
They were EVERYWHERE!
Awesome how in tact the ruins are
we also had a tour guide who told us some
really interesting stories
We we're told there was an awesome Beach in Tulum
in this pic you can see a little peek
Heres a better peek LOL
It was HOT that day & we couldn't wait to jump in the water
with a little more walking we finally got there :)
SWEET!
The water was a little wavy that day
so I stayed towards the edge
I hate waves
So by the time we got back to the resort
everyone was starving!
It was out last night there also
we decided to eat Sushi/Hibachi
Appetizer
Mel ordered lots of sushi almost the whole rolls menu
I ordered this:
Me Cory & Jonnie
Group Pic
LOL that same night was also SUPER HERO night hahaha
every night they have an activity or theme
(one of the nights they had this: A tribal dance)
LOL here they are dancing the Cha Cha slide
Meet Pablo our water aerobics instructor! :) we <3 him
Next day is going home & packing day :(
...err or jumping on the bed day
But before we left we ate a hearty breakfast
{BYE Omelet guy I <3 you & your omelet}
Bye DREAMS
sigh!
& thats the end of my Mexico trip! :)
