Cancun Day 4 - Tues APR 29
Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Up at 7:30. On the pool deck by 8:30. Lunch at restaurant at Noon. And here’s where some adventure comes in - someone “borrowed” on of our deck chairs while we were at lunch. No, they were not sitting in it, but they had moved it and put their stuff on it. Why do I say it was “ours?” Because the resort gives you flags to post on the chair allowing you to claim it for the day so long as you do not abandon it for more than 2 consecutive hours - which we had not done. Besides, my shoes were still sitting under the chair. To me, no worries. After putting on more sunscreen I will rightfully reclaim my chair and apologize for their misunderstanding should there be any type of confrontation.
Sandy and I beat Shelby and Nick back to the pool deck. I politely take any extra stuff - towels, sunscreen, shoes - and relocate it to another one of their chairs. Then we turn our chairs to face W so we get full frontal sun and we sit. As Sandy is taking trash over to the recycle bin, an older lady stops her and says Thank You for handling that situation with class. She said she saw the other “rude” people claim the chair and wondered if Sandy’s “boyfriend” would kick their butts. Sandy corrected the lady that I was more than just Arm Candy.
So Nick gets back and we head for the swim-up bar for drinks. On our return, a couple about my age stops us in the pool and says they have us pegged for being from the mid-west. How so, we ask? The man says that I handled the abducted chair business with grace and class and that someone from the East coast would have tossed all their junk into the pool. He said that they too had witnessed the chair abduction and were hoping that based on my size versus theirs that it would get spicy and they would get to see a show. Alas nothing became of it. The would-be thieves came and got their stuff and moved on without the hint of anything being wrong. Turns out, they were in the pool and watched me reclaim my chair. They thought better than to mess with Thor!
Stayed out late for us, like 5:30 before taking showers and heading down to dinner. We get to stay out later as the sun is coming up early and staying up later than when we are here during the winter. Back to our room for cards, drinks, and snacks. The girls are still getting hosed on cards - not good hands to play. They made a couple bids and didn’t make a couple of bids they should have. At the end of the night, the score stands at Boys = 10 wins, Girls = 1 win. I texted Greg Unger and told him the score and said it’s because That’s What Winners Do! He and I laughed. The girls not so much.
Enjoy some photos
"Thor" was actually referred to as my husband OR boyfriend. Definitely not my arm candy. Maybe too many adult beverages have made him delirious 😜😅!
