So basically I am just going to post picture with blurbs. Honestly, we didn't do anything to really talk about other than lay around the pool, read, nap and drink all day. The second day we discovered a pool that was much less populated. We determined that this being the slow time of year, it is also the time when Mexican families take advantage of the lower rates, so the pools around our building that had all the kid friendly options like wave pool, lazy river and shallow areas were PACKED. We quickly decided it was well worth the hike to go to one of the outlying pools, plus it was right on the beach and the breezes were blocked by all the trees and bathrooms....We weren't the only smart ones, it was basically the same 10 people every day, just shifting around trying out different locations around the pool every day.

| Shopping, resort-style. For the record, he got us to come over by announcing he had all sorts of "cheap junk". Sorry, I think the cheapest thing in there was a $40 (american dollars) charm....oh well. |
 |
| Jeff did a lot of "knitting", which was the only thing our bartender could think of to call it.... |
 |
| Yup, life was rough. |
 |
| We did leave the pool occassionally, to go to the beach. We learned quickly that you WEAR YOUR SHOES up until you are ready to step in the water. We developed some near-blisters one day trying to run across the sand to where we had left them. Couldn't believe that sand could GET that hot!! |
 |
| The ocean water was warmer than the pool water. And had a few more obstructions in it as well as you will see in later pictures.... |
 |
| Yup, guess who got a sunburn the second day? |
 |
| This pool rocked. My hair hated it and it was a little hard on the elbows when you were trying to read in it (or drink) but for the most part, it was heaven! |
 |
| View of the beach....from the pool. |
 |
| Superman! |
 |
| My elbows were seriously unhappy with all of the work I made them do, propping me up so I could read and tan my backside at the same time. I don't know what I was thinking.... |
 |
| OMAR!!! The man of the Happy Hour and almost every other hour as well. Yes, they would literally bring you a bucket o'beer. Or a margarita (or three). |
 |
Detoxing.
 |
| I can't tell if this is morning hair or after pool hair. The coffee cup doesn't help as it pretty much lived out there the entire week. |
|
 |
| The sunsets were gorgeous EVERY SINGLE night, |
 |
| The camera really doesn't do it justice. |
