These are the double beds that are on the beach.you can see the moon out in full in the picture below.

Day 5

It's Xmas!

Last night we went to the Italian restaurant and finished the evening in the main bar which is semi outside. They had a good local group playing with lots of old songs we knew, they play for the crowd which is english/american. Stayed out till about 10:45 pm, whoo hoo. We were at breakfast by 7 am this morning .. love it, it means you get a full 'day' in 'cos the sun goes down about 5:30 pm. We just lazed today although Dave did a bit of kayaking on the smooth caribbean. When we got back to our suite, Dave had a lay on the sunbed and I went on the float on the lazy river ending up back outside ours. Just getting ready to go to the chinese and the entertainment tonight is 'mexican'. They've got all the props up around the resort with the ponchos and sombreros, if that's how you spell it?

Day 4

The leaning lighthouse


Today was a bit overcast so we walked to the little fishing village, Puerto Morelas. 50 mins along the beach and we were there .. but we had to walk back! It was lovely though, look at this.
Arghh - my hair's a nightmare!

Day 3

Up and out early for breakfast today. We were on the beach by 8 am and set up a wicker double bed with deep cushions and pillows with about six towels all wrapped round. You can do some serious sleeping on the beach in one of these! Half way through my 'Ray Winstone biography' now. After an hour long walk along the perfect white powered sandy beach we had a dip in the warm turqouise sea. I only had one pina colada today with my lunch which resulted in more reading/sleeping on our double sun bed. We took an outside jacuzzi in our little garden as the evening was drawing in, the palm trees swaying and the long muslin sheet that 'hides' the jacuzzi was blowing about. Once again, I drank too much so after our 'chinese' we listened to a fella playing the violin (kinda modern) we went back to our suite.

Day 2

Today was overcast and windy with a couple of heavy showers. It's still warm though and we sat on the beach in the morning. Later we listed to a local group that sang a few Santana songs and an english bloke sang a song or two playing the keyboard, he was good .. it was all very entertaining. I've drunk too many cocktails in the 'day' today and will have to leave it out now. Dave had another knap whilst I had a spa french pedicure .. it was lovely, I had 'saved' it for when we were out here (got my money's worth!).We ate in the french restaurant this evening and I was shattered. With the heat, alchohol and everything! it knocks you out. So after listenting to one of the old Platters guys sing a few songs we went home early. Looking forward to an early rise tomorrow.

Mexico - Day 1

We went for breakfast nice and early which was superb. We had omelettes and then smoked salmon & thinly sliced raw tuna with fresh bread. The spread is unbelievable. We then had a little sunbathe in our own private garden and entered the lazy river on a float. I dried out on the hammock after a little read. We went down to the beachfront and had a walk for about an hour. Of course when we returned I had to have a cocktail or two, hence I fell asleep on a sunbed until we went to lunch. Shrimps and calamari .. so much lovely seafood. We've just had a jacuzzi outside on the patio .. i'm popping over to the spa to have a look around - Dave's already snorring!!
Last night was hilarious. I got so drunk that I can't remember finishing my lobster - I remember starting it but jolted upright just as I finished it!! lol I've never had such a lethal pina colada (or maybe it was the couple of martini cocktails we had - they did have tequila, vodka & rum in them afterall! We had a good sleep, went into a kind of mild coma .. Tomorrow I'll try & post some photos if this thing works. xx
