Cancun-Day 1

One can only feel lucky and blessed to have one side of the family take us on a vacation and the other side of our family happy to watch our two children! Terri and Craig took the Parry Family to Cancun this past week--the hotel/resort was a big highlight--tile floors, walk-in shower, and balcony overlooking crystal clear pools, white-sand beaches, and blue-green ocean! We all had a wonderful time, but Layne and I agreed that we prefer Hawaii and we were all glad to get back to everyone speaking English! So here is day 1 of our trip!

At KCI Airport--Craig is already taking his nap!

And this is what we arrived too--just like the pictures Terri
had shown us before of our hotel--it was nice to see that is was for "real!"

Our hotel room with a balcony to that amazing view!

Craig's birthday was the day we got to Cancun, so we
celebrated with a dinner at Planet Hollywood--there was a strip mall
right across from our hotel with shopping and food choices--very handy!

Celebrating life on the beach with Pina Coladas!

Another beach picture.

Terri and Craig checking out the beautiful ocean--the
water color was amazing!

Miss Kristi--all smiles.

The brothers in the hotel pool--with a gorgeous sunset in the background.

Even though we were dead tired from traveling all day,
we decided to ride the bus to Wal-mart to get some groceries for the week--here
we are waiting for the bus. The bus was pretty full, so we stood most of the way there and then after shopping decided to get taxi's on the way home--we had a lot of groceries to haul and they took us start back to the hotel.

Shopping at Wal-mart was interesting--everything was
written in Pesos--so here are chips for $37.oo Pesos--but to us it seemed like $37 dollars.
Luckily about everyone excepted American money too and just converted the bill
over to Pesos--we had brought a calculator along to help us figure out costs and Layne
also put a money converter app on our I-Pod--both very helpful in knowing the cost of items!
After fun times at Wal-mart, we headed to bed to prepare
for an early morning on Sunday at Chichen Itza!
