Still in Cancun

This is the second time that I have gotten on the computer here. We have been really busy with outside activities and are rarely in the room. It's a beautiful room and just out the back door are some things that we have grown quite accustomed to having right there just for us. One is the hammock that Alan makes a bee-line for each morning after he wakes. The other is the spa where we enjoyed a wonderful complimentary massage for our anniversary. And then there is the lazy river which is a pool that floats around in a huge circle and back to the huts where we can lay in a chair or in a bed. We fell asleep there for a while yesterday. Oh yeah, there's also a smoothie stand where we can get delicious fruit smoothies with fresh fruits and veggies in them.

Yesterday, we took advantage of the ocean and walked over a mile up the strip. Then we laid in a bed and read while the ocean sang to us. Alan couldn't help noticing that our resort was the nicest of all the other ones that we walked by this morning. MY research paid off, thank you very much. We are finally on a vacation where we feel like we fit perfectly! We are treated really well and have met some really nice couples our age and older.

The first day that we were here Alan looked at me and said, "Do you notice that there are a lot of older couples here? ha! I think he's still looking for a bunch of young girls in string bikinis having a pillow fight on the beach! That's my Alan! Welcome to your future, baby!

So, today will be filled with the same kind of stuff: eating, drinking, relaxing, and reading. Then we will come home tomorrow afternoon just in time for Thanksgiving. We are truly blessed!!
