Adios Gringos

Early tomorrow morning, Margo and I are heading on vacation. We decided to take a really nice vacation this year, mostly because both Margo and I got unexpected bonuses this year. We are heading to Tulum, Mexico (about 70 miles south of Cancun). There are a few reasons we decided to go there. The resort we are staying at is really nice and away from all the touristy areas so there are not tons of people and there are not people everywhere trying to get you to buy stuff. It also has its own private beach and it is supposed to be the only resort you can see the Tulum Ruins from. It is an all inclusive that includes all your food, drinks, and even alcohol (woo hoo). Another nice thing is it has like 7 restaurants and only one is a buffet, the rest are order off the menu and some are really fancy and you have to dress up to go. The price also includes entertainment and use of all their activity stuff (like bikes, kayaks, tennis, shuffle board, climbing wall, trampoline in the ocean, etc). The place is called Dreams Tulum Resort and Spa. We are really excited, this will be the nicest trip we have ever been on together. On Orbitz it is rated as one of their top 10 most romantic hotels. I even bought new swim trunks (my last ones I bought in like the 10th grade). We are also going one day to Chichin Itza which I am super excited about. We will be back late next Wednesday night. We are not taking our computer with us so you will have to wait until we get back to see pictures.

Man, that is freaking awesome! I had a co-worker at Nestle who stayed at that resort for 2 weeks! She loved it and said it was remarkable. Hope y'all have a good time!

If its so romantic, does that mean we can all expect a little baby Hale in the near future??? Can't swim all day, ya' know! wink, wink.

This is not a baby making trip but there will be plenty of practice.
