Dag 7
Day 5 - Beach
4 april 2022, Mexico ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C
Made it to the beach today, kinda windy you may notice from pictures. This beach is one of the longest free walking beaches in the Playa Mujeres area. Many other resorts have private beaches, so you can't take long strolls

There is a bar hut and fill service on the beach. They have volleyball, yoga and a swim area. But you still have to watch for Stingrays in the water.

They have lounge beds you can rent, but have lots if regular lounger and umbrellas available. Enjoy the beautiful blue waterMeer informatie

Day 5 - Hanging w/New Friends
3 april 2022, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
Today was going to be a beach, but met a new couple from Windsor at lunch, which rolled into two more Gen Xers from London and Melrose in the afternoon.

I uped my dinner reservation count and we dined at the French restaurant La Boheme. Great day

La Boheme is a French restaurant with great ambiance. French wallpaper and more great tile floors. Not as many tables as some of the other restaurants, but that may be due to capacity restrictions

I enjoyed Potato Leak Soup, Chateaubriand and Chocolate/Hazelnut Eclairs...yum

Spending the rest of my evening on the Bali bed, w/a movie and 🍿 Finally figured out what to call it

l'll try to get to the beach tomorrow. There is just too much interaction around the pool

Day 4 - Teppanyaki
2 april 2022, Mexico ⋅ 🌙 26 °C
Dinner tonight is at Sumptuori the Japanese Teppanyaki. This is a post WWll style of Japanese cuisine that uses a big iron griddles. Not to be confused with Hibachi, which uses a round bowl or stove with a grate.

Lovely restaurant, dined with folks from Massachusetts, USA and Manchester, England. This resort seems to attack world travelers

Finished the night w/drinks on the rooftop patio w/Barrie travel friends and fireworks. Toronto travel friends could not join

I'm cirled up on the day bed outside sending this post and it's awesome. All is quiet here, the water is lit up and what is return to work again?? Cause that has totally slipping my mind

Tomorrow is a beach day, unless it's windy. Then there is always more Sangria at the swim up

Day 2 - The Pool
31 maart 2022, Mexico ⋅ 🌙 27 °C
Ok, I'm on vacation, but was up at 7:15, to beat the retired folks to the chairs. Surveyed my options and staked my claim.

Headed to the gym, did grab and go breakfast and hit the lounger by 10:00. Maybe not my best choice of spots. Got crowed in the afternoon. Social distancing and manners???

The weather is great, but it's been windy. Like blow stuff off your lounger windy. Maybe tomorrow will be a room day. Enjoy the swim up, relax on the day bed and do some reading or watch movies. Oh sister, it might be a homemade sangria day

Here's a few pool shots and the cabanas for rent. They seem to be popular with the younger crowd and bottle service. Who said the Gen Xers have it tough

Oh and I made a new friendMeer informatie

Erin Janiten I like your new friend...I hope he/she doesn't bite! Ohhhhhh sangria, if only I was there to drink them with you XOXO

Reiziger They hang out in the sun and startle people when they scurry away. Maybe the sisters need a vacay....

Day 4 - I Slept
2 april 2022, Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
Must have been a combination of the late cabaret show and wine, I slept

I did get up to stake my chair, but went back to bed until 10:00. Now I'm in vacay mode.

Today was a pool/swim up day. Had lunch at Helios. Great second floor outdoor patio with views of the ocean. Old style with cool tile floors. I had Paella, yum. Dined w/my newly met travel friends from Barrie

Went back to the restaurant to have my popcorn popped and met another Canadian couple, Steven and Victoria from Toronto. Look at me, social bug

Spent the after in the swim up with sangria. Oh sister where art thou??Meer informatie

Day 5 - Chilllax'n
4 april 2022, Mexico ⋅ 🌙 26 °C
After lunch found a shaded spot and did a little reading. Had drinks in the pool with new London friends David and Randy. David lives just around the corner from my Chris on Princess Ave

Also met a Niagara boarded patrol officer working in immigration, my world is getting smaller and I'm reminded of return to work

Strolled over to the village again to see the Spots Bar. Won't get a chance to dine there, but wanted to check it out, here's a few picsMeer informatie

Day 2 - Foodie
31 maart 2022, Mexico ⋅ 🌙 27 °C
Dinner tonight is Chang Thai. Great decor. Wooden wall coverings and beautiful copper walls.

I tried yellow curry pork and didn't die. I selected Chicken Pad Thai as my main. So far, best meal and best wine.

The service was off, they kept waiting for a guests to join me. They don't seem to grasp the concrpt of a single traveler. Any volunteers as my next travel partner? We'd get better serviceMeer informatie

Day 3 - Chic Cabaret
1 april 2022, Mexico ⋅ 🌙 26 °C
Tonight is cabaret night. Chic is a dinner Cabaret show in the village. Met some great folks, Ken and Susan, from Barrie. Five course meal, shooters and whatever you wish to drink. Awesome.

My photos will not due justice to the show and perforers. I clearly need to work on my videographer skills. But to my credit, my usual subjects are ancient building, statues or scenery.
I'll get better, I promise

Here are my best attempts to share this fabulous show

Another early day, but I still didn't beat the retired folks. Got my spot and headed out for a run. It was a warm one, 29 degrees at 7:30.

Ran by a few new sites thought you might like to see.

The Bicycle Cafe, the Glass Church, the outdoor Theater and a colorful IguanaMeer informatie

Day 3 - Birds of Paradise
1 april 2022, Mexico ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C
Here's one for my sister-in-law. She loves the bird of prey flower. But, I saw another type and this is as close as I got. Can you say Ornithophobia

There was no zoom and no alcohol involved in the taking of these photos, but I winced a few times...lol

Look at me stepping out of my shell, however brieflyMeer informatie
