Photo Journey : Jetset to Mexico...

Saturday, January 25, 2014

At the beginning of December we decided it might be nice to visit somewhere warm to start off our 2014. With Christmas always being a busy time of year, I didn't have the time or the patience to start planning anything crazy for a holiday, all inclusive vacations are usually good "bang for your buck" so to speak, and require little planning on my part in terms of flights, accommodations, transport, etc, etc, etc... it felt good to just log on to the computer pick some days that would work and choose a resort that had good reviews on trip advisor! In no time flat I had our holiday booked, and was dreaming of warm weather, soft sand beaches and the sound of the ocean waves breaking in the background.... I didn't take into account that no matter what type of holiday you plan, you can't plan the weather to go along with it....

Mother nature was not so nice to us on our week away; of the 7 days we were gone, the sun came out for 2. We managed to make it down to the beach a couple of times; Jet didn't know what to think of the sand (and miraculously only a small amount ended up in his mouth), the ocean was a little too choppy to take him for a swim so we just played on land. The resort we stayed at was beautiful, we managed to make a couple trips into town which broke up the cooler days; however, much of our time was spent in our room, letting both Jet and Ryan recover from the colds they both inherited, and playing in the balcony jacuzzi (Thank goodness we had one!). By the end of the 7 days we were ready to say goodbye and get back to cold Edmonton...even with the 50 degree weather difference.

Needless to say this trip definitely won't go down as being the most memorable, I mean it is always nice to have some quality time with my boys away from home.... it just would have been nicer if we got to do more of it under a palapa on the beach...

Here are a few of the better moments from the week....


...I know I shouldn't complain, a vacation is a vacation, and by looking through these pictures you would never know the sun shone so little.... I guess I only took my camera out when it was nice...

...til next time...xo...CS
