So after a year full of many changes and "new" things, (new city, new house, new toddler. new position at work), Jeff and I decided we were due for a little vacation sans children. We took a 6 day trip down to Riviera Maya, Mexico, always one of our favorite vacation destinations. It was really nice to escape the chilly Colorado temperatures and enjoy the warm weather, amazing scenery, and peace and quiet ;-)
Yes, I do believe I will have a mimosa with my breakfast!
Up close and personal. I took this one for Alice, who loves a good "peahog".
One of the great things about the Iberostar resort is all of the bus stops where you can sit and wait for a trolley to take you anywhere around the resort. Being lazy is really under-rated!
There were Mexican Coatis everywhere scavenging around the resort. If you left food or drink (or personal belongings!) anywhere, they would be there to check it out and/or pilfer it! Here is a pack of them running through the bushes.
Enjoying a little poolside fun
There were always people on-hand to entertain. This guy's eyebrows are real!
The Lobby Bar became our favorite evening hang out. Lots of music, entertainment, and interesting people.
The pools at the resorts we have been to are always our favorite daytime place, and this trip was no different. A really beautiful pool.
Neither of us are crazy about beaches; always seems like they are so sandy ;-) and windy, but we spent a little time there.
Our specialty restaurant dinner...not bad, but we both preferred the buffet. It turns out Mexican food in Mexico is not always in our taste!
The resort was huge, and really beautiful

Jeff tried his hand at air guns
It was a fantastic trip, and naturally it just flew by! I definitely could have stayed longer. It was nice to know our girls were at home waiting for us. Back to reality we go...!
