Awwwwww, Cancun!

Doctor and I went to Cancun to celebrate our 10th anniversary. We were able to escape on our own, thanks mom! The weather was gorgeous all week. We flew out of Boise on a Monday morning and were at our hotel by 3:30pm. There was a chocolate cake in our room that said happy anniversary. After the first of many DELICIOUS meals we headed to town to do some shopping. We got back to late to swim, bummer.
Tuesday morning we went to a different resort to hear their membership presentation. Our lady was pretty odd. Long story short, we still aren't members and we walked away with 2 free jungle tours and money for the spa. After the presentation we went shopping again and Doctor bought me a beautiful new necklace. We were also on a hunt to find a certain type of vanilla for Doctor's mom. We found it in a local drugstore tucked in a corner. After shopping we went to a Japanese hibachi restaurant for dinner. Always fun. By the time we got back to our hotel, it was too late to swim again! I know we still hadn't made it to the beach! We did get back in time for Karaoke, though. I wish I had pictures of my husband the Karaoke king! He was so fun to watch.
Wednesday we lounged at the beach and ate delicious food all day. We also got back massages. What a nice day. :)

Thursday we went to the Talum archeology site. It was crazy hot, but beautiful. After the tour we went to a different resort for swimming and snorkeling. Later that night we went to a fire show. At first I thought it was pretty impressive, then I realized the people were super stupid to be playing with fire like that. :)
Friday we got up early to go zip-line. The plan was for both of us to do it, but I chickened out last minute. Doctor thought it was fun and even did part of it upside down. After zip-line, we went on our jungle tour. When we got there, they asked us if we would drive separate boats so that another family would be able to go. So, we each drove a boat with a kid from the other family. It was a super windy day so it was a pretty scary boat ride. It was fun though, and I can now say that I drove a speed boat. We drove out into the ocean and went snorkeling at the reef. So beautiful.
Saturday was another beach lounging shopping day. That night we went to casino night and rocked the Texas Hold-em table. We even won a bottle of Tequila. :)
Sunday we went to church. It was fast & testimony meeting and it was probably one of the most spiritual experiences of my life. I'm so glad we were there. We went back to the hotel and had a couples massage and a pedicure and manicure. You can never be over pampered.
Monday we lounged at the pool until around noon then headed to the airport. What a wonderful week! I definitely missed the kids, though and was super excited to get back to them. Maybe next time we'll bring them along. Here's some pictures from our balcony.
