Last Port of Call - Cancun, Mexico

What better way to begin 2010 than to be in Cancun Mexico? As we got off the boat to explore, we found it to be a most gorgeous day. We decided not to purchase any excursions in Cancun because we wanted to explore and take a look around. We also decided to go to a local beach on our own.The shopping in Cancun is amazing. You can find everything you are looking for except a cute swimsuit that isn't a bikini.There are also a lot of people everywhere. My husband likes to say that I don't like people - this isn't true, I love people fine, just not when I am on vacation or trying to do something cool!
We found a taxi driver and asked him to take us to a local beach that wasn't too far away. The place he took us to was lovely.The water was like bathtub temperature and it was clear and gorgeous. Jasmine loved playing in the sand and at first didn't want to go in the water. She eventually let Laura and I take her in.
Ava on the other hand wasn't such a fan - she wasn't sure what to make of it so we only dipped her feet in and then let her relax for the rest of the time. Unfortunately I didn't bring sunblock off the boat so she got a tiny bit sun-kissed.That night after dinner, they put on a Chocoholics Buffet and they had all kinds of chocolate desserts and chocolate sculptures as well. I piled it on my plate but ended up only eating a bit of most of the desserts - many were not that good - they looked better than they tasted.It was then time for bed and it was a great first day of the year - they should all be this good.
