Cancun Day 2 - JAN 31 2021

Image
We hit the sack last night at 10 pm, after a very long day.  We rolled out at 9:30 this morning, and Lesley had gone down to the exercise class at 9.  Since she was the only fool to show up, the instructor canceled the course.  So Lesley and Todd went down to the buffet breakfast here in the resort.  That begs the question, who in their right mind goes down to exercise classes while on vacation??? It was overcast most of the day with a few very light sprinkles.  It made it to 80 degrees with some wind all day.  The pool water was chilly when you got out, but overall very nice. We asked about capacity and were told that they are at 40%, which they have been since last March.  Made sense to us as the only chairs that are used are around the pool bar.  All other chairs are open. We laid around the pool all day, even taking lunch next to the pool.  We napped, swam, drank, and generally just soaked up the sun.  It was quite relaxing. We returned to the room for showers sometime around 4:30.

Cancun During Covid - 2021 (Jan 30) - Day 1

It has been a long day that started at 2 am on this Saturday after about 2 hours of sleep.  We headed for the airport at 3:10 am.  Todd & Lesley Irwin have joined us on this trip and they arrived at the house by 3 am.  We rode to the airport together.   It was clear weather and we saw lots of critters out - mostly deer.  We parked and made the kiosk in the airport at 4:30 - and had to stand in line.  It was actually quite busy at the airport this morning. We checked in and cleared Security without issues.  The first leg of our trip was to Charlotte, NC.  The flight was full.  We had a layover of about 90 minutes so we grabbed a quick breakfast.  Me?  I got a nap on that leg. We boarded the jet to Cancun and the airplane was maybe 70% full, so we all spread out.  Each couple had our own private row of three seats.  Again, I caught some Z's on this flight too.  My wife will claim she didn't sleep, but she's a Big Liar. We landed and cleared everything in the airport witho
