Ahhh, Acapulco

What a great time we had in Acapulco. I don't think we've ever had a vacation like this before. Except for Tuesday's city tour, we basically didn't leave the Grand Mayan. We just relaxed! Because the weather was so hot and humid, our main activity everyday was spending time at the pool and ocean. Rachel had such a blast riding the waves. She never wanted to come out of the water! A few of the evenings we enjoyed watching the sunset over the ocean. So beautiful.
Since we had a kitchen in our suite, we made most of our own meals. Every few days we'd go to a nearby shopping center to buy things at Wal-Mart and/or go out to eat. One morning we had the brunch at the Mayan with lots of good authentic Mexican food. (as you can see!)
This morning (Saturday) we checked out and caught the 11:15 bus for Mexico City. It was another gorgeous ride through great scenery. We're staying in Mexico City tonight, then tomorrow we have a flight to Tuxtla Gutierrez, Chiapas. We're very excited to not only be back in Chiapas, but to be based somewhere for a few months after so much traveling. We'll be visiting different projects in Chiapas, but probably won't leave there until the first part of February. We'll let you know how it feels to be "back home." Donna

  1. Were you serious about a visit, because DH said "that sounds do-able".

  2. So glad you had a good week! Glad it was something that Rachel could enjoy to the fullest as well. How I would love to see her ride the waves. Kim says it is not difficult to arrange to talk to you,we will try to figure it out. Would be good to talk once again.
