Mexico and back again

Hello everyone,

I'm back from my holidays and what a fantastic time we had.

I don't want to bore you with loads of photos, but I do want to share with you the beatifullnes

of where we stayed in Mexico.

First we have the start of our holidays and that's going to Gatwick.

I love the airport, I don't know why and my kids think I'm a loon.

But I love the atmosphere and the excitement of getting sorted to get

you on the plane, that's going to whisk you away.

The flight was 11 hours, which I was a little unsure about. How do you keep

yourself occupied sitting down for that length of time. So I went armed with iPod, iPad,

kindle and crocheting. I did plenty of reading and crocheting and watched a couple of

good films on the TV and before I knew it we was getting ready to land.

These are piccy's of our hotel, the view from our room and the beach.

Everyday the sky and the water seemed to be a different colour. I'm not a very good

photo taker, so trying to capture the so many colours of the sea and

sky I found quite hard. A couple of days we had rain, one moment the sun

would shine, then the heavens would open and it would be like a bucket

being poured over you, then it would stop and the sun was out again

These are a few pics in and around our hotel.

I took loads, but choosing what ones to share

without boring you was difficult

We went on a trip to a place called Xcaret, which is a Mayan Eco

archaeological theme park. We spent the day there, swimming the lazy river at the beginning

of the day and wandering back through the park afterwards.

I know we missed so much and I think you need a good

couple of days to be able to see everything they have there.

We stayed for the 2 shows in the evening

which helps explain a bit of the Mayan history.

If you do ever get the chance to visit Mexico, then this is one trip I would

recommend you to go on. It is suitable for all ages, whether you have little

ones or elderly ones with you.

Our time there went so quickly, but I was ready to come home and looking forward

to seeing everyone.

I was prepared for it to be cold and us to feel the cold more so, as we had been in

warmer climes. But the cold, damp foginess is still a shock to my body.

Once back indoors, the heating and the fire went on and I think it will be like that for

the next few days.

I have some Bloggy catching up to do, so bear with me and I'll do my best

to get back up to date.

Take care
