Cancun ‘25 - Sat NOV 29

Image
 Wow.  Short night, like 2.5 hrs but that’s still 2 more hours than my bride.  Headed for the airport at 4 am to crystal clear skies under the star-decked canopy of the universe.  Traffic was light and the airport not too crowded.  Ran into Steve & Glenda Clossin who were on the same flight down here.  Seems both families like to take this week as vacation since we meet up quite frequently in the airport. Flight was smooth and we set a standard that can hypothetically be beat but odds are will never:  plane parked at the closest gate to immigration.  We were the only plane arriving and as we walked up, a second line opened up making us the first in line.  From plane to baggage claim was maybe 5 mins.  No lines at the restrooms.  Sandy’s luggage was second off.  And here’s where the improvement can come - my suitcase was second to last off.  Walked out to private taxi and were in the van before Sandy could get her flops...

Cancun Day 5 - Thur DEC 4

 One of us got up at 7 while the female side of this partnership slept until 8:30.  We went down to the breakfast buffet because we are going to have a late lunch, because we are having a late dinner at the steak house - reservations at 7 pm and that’s late for us.   We stayed on the kiddie pool deck this morning and for the first time this week there was a steady breeze.  Thank goodness too as it would have been even hotter to lay out in 86 degree F (30 C) weather.  Which, BTW is 80 degrees warmer than home right now!!!  We are going to freeze our little backsides off when we return.  Any sympathy?  Didn’t think so… We called it quits about 4:30 and took showers (plural, much to my dismay).  This was so that we could be in the lobby for the Christmas party and the lighting of the tree at 5.  We did buy a raffle ticket as the resort was raising money for their kids’ foundation.  Prizes included: very expensive bottles of liquor, two...

Cancun Day 5 - WED DEC 3

Image
 We got up this morning and spent thru lunch working through the transition from Royal Resorts to Holiday Inn.  Probably a good thing too as my five-head had plenty of sun on it.  We think we know how it all works and we delayed the decision as long as we could, but by the 18th it would be a done deal anyway.  So on we moved.  Don’t feel like we lost in any way. Made it to the pool deck after eating lunch by the pool.  Stayed there until after 5.  Took showers and then went down for Italian food night at the resort restaurant.  Back to the room and there is a Disney show playing on the stage outside our deck.  Mostly for the kiddos, but we knew all the songs! We did get some more corn hole in this afternoon and the results are as to be expected.  I won 4 of 4 games.  One game was even a skunk: 21 - 0.  My bride did keep a few close though, 21 - 19.  Tough to score when even She was hitting three-baggers.  What’s gotte...
