What a vacation! This was our all inclusive Mexican Christmas vacation with us, Mom-Pop, Arti-Suraj, Darrell-Sapna-Amara-Nayan, and Suraj’s parents. We left on December 22nd after a rough night with Aiden complaining about his cheek and jaw. Thankfully, he felt better in the morning and we all left around 5:30 AM with a Uber to the airport. Met up with parents and Arti-Suraj and flew to Cancun. Aiden sat with Mom-Pop on the flight there. The Sandos Playacar resort was amazing with a huge lobby and fantastic customer service. We were starving so first went to the Bar Snack place for a late lunch. After eating, we checked into our room and relaxed for a bit. Dinner was a buffet place called Festival where there are numerous choices for all of us to eat.
The next day, I took Aiden on a bicycle tour around the resort and outside as well. Then we walked around checking out the entire resort and got our bearings. Dinner was Mexican where they had an awesome dessert even though the food was just okay. On Tuesday, we hit the gym early before meeting everyone for breakfast at Festival. I took Aiden swimming and we relaxed.
We decided on Wednesday to go to Tulum and booked a private tour which took us there. Nice place and it was a good decision. The site was amazing and it was kind of like Macchu-Picchu lite. We spent almost 4 hours there before returning and walking into town. Afterwards, Arti, Sona, and I had Tequila shots and chatted for two hours before we decided to go Parasailing.
Thursday we relaxed and did some shopping and took Aiden around the resort. We also had Italian food for dinner and spotted so many animals including iguanas, Mexican racoons, and other native creatures. All in all a great trip but many of us got sick including Suraj, Darrell, and Sona!
