Mexico – El dia dos
Sharon and I were woken up by the lovely sound of our phone ringing and Phillip telling us to wake up, cause we need to eat breakfast and get ready to leave for our snorkeling tour (yeah I know I know we said we were not going to do any excursions of the resort, but it just sounded like too much fun). We rushed downstairs and grabbed some breakfast then met everyone in the lobby. Once all 8 of us were together we took the city bus to Aquaplace, paid our dues and waited for our boat to arrive. We spent about 30 minutes roaming around the gift shop and lathering on about 30 layers of sunscreen. We got fitted with our flippers and headed on to the boat. It was about 10 minutes in to our ride, when they came around with huge bottles of cerveza and it was delish. We finally made it to our final destination aka The Mother ship. After meeting our Mexican Host Johnny Deep and getting the details about what to do and not what to do, we all jumped in the water and followed our tour guide around. The water was super clear and the fishes were awesome, but after about 30 minutes in the water we were ready to get our butts back on the ship and take a breather. Well Jar Jar and Sharon were not feeling so good and we all decided to head back to the resort. We waited around about 20 minutes for the boat to return to take us back and mean while Phillip and I decided that we were not ready to go back. So everyone with the exception of Sharon, Phillip and I headed back to the hotel. We managed to spend about another hour or so on the boat, drinking 40’s and doing beer bongs.
It was AWESOME!!! a true Cancun vacation!!!
So after drinking more cerveza and meeting some CRAZY chicks from Florida, we headed back to the Hotel. I don’t remember much from the ride back, but somehow (probably thanks to Sharon) we made it back to the Hotel in time to take a shower and head down to dinner at the Italian restaurant.
Poor Sharon did not last long (she was still feeling motion sickness) and she headed up to our room to get some rest. Soon after Phillip and I left and headed to the lobby bar and get our drink on and of course mingle with some new peeps. A little later Sharon joined us at the bar and we decided that we needed to go walk on the beach in pitch dark and play in the water. But I must say, there is something very satisfying about jumping in the pool, in the middle of the night with your clothes on (well Sharon and I had our clothes on, boo was in his tighty whiteys). We stayed in the pool for about 15 minutes before we realized we were freezing… so we headed up to our room and all three of us jumped in the shower (thank you Sharon for the brilliant idea) and chit chatted for a good 10 minutes while our bodies were de-frosting (I am kicking my self for not grabbing the camera to snap a picture), but I guess some things need to be kept in our minds only. That pretty much marked our second day in Mexico…
