Cancun Day 3 - Monday, 18 MAR
Pretty standard day today. Although I was an hour later getting up than my bride. She went down and got us chairs by the pool bar. I showed up about ten-ish.
We ate lunch here at the hotel. I had fish tacos. Sandy ate the steak quesadillas. We went to the sun deck after lunch and claimed our seats. It was easy. We were the only people on the sun deck. We walked to the ocean and made sand castles and videos for the grandkids.
We showered up and then took a cab to a new restaurant for us - la Fish Fritanga. This place looks like a street vendor that Guy Fieri would skip. But, once you get past the street level, you walk down to the beach and a lovely setting. It's not the most fancy place in Cancun, but it was very nice. We both tried the nurse shark (kinda fishy, like tuna) and then I had the spicy shrimp and Sandy had Shrimp Mignon - which was shrimp twisted into a steak, surrounded by bacon, grilled, and then smothered in mushroom sauce. It was served with a baked potato - which helped the overall rating of the meal for her.
Back to the hotel and bought some more drinks for the room. Had some ice cream in the lobby. And I finished book #2. Sandy in the middle of book #2. We called Will to FaceTime. He introduced us to his new books and a few new super heroes. Sister was already asleep.
Some pictures from today:
Highs today hit 85F. Sunny. Light breeze to keep one cool.
Lows at 70 F. Those of you sitting in 23 F in Indiana - Ha Ha Ha.
