We had a chance to get away for 10 days to Cancun, and since Tara is here and she can remind me how to Blog, I think I'll put on a few of our pictures we took on the trip (Mom in Seattle, this is for you so you can have a little vacation too)

This was the Hotel deal we got on Travelocity. Not too shabby! 10 days with no cows mooing or 3rd graders looking for justice on the playground. Speaking a little spanish would have helped, but by the time we went around reading the billboards, we kinda figured it out.

This place was called Chitzen-Itza, or something like that, and it was unbelievable HUGE. These stories and history go hand-in-hand with the Book of Mormon. They thought we couldn't know anything about them, so we let them know we've read all about it. Would you like us to tell you some of your history?

On the east side of our windows the sun was rising, and right behind us on a golf course at the end of the day, it was setting and I think...I think... I may like Cancun more than Hawaii.

If you ever have a chance to go there, there's an island off the coast called Isle Moreles, and this little restaurant at the tip, has the ocean on 3 sides with a light, flowery breeze blowing through. There chips and guac are to die for!

This is the place to fork out the big bucks to actually get to do all the things they advertise once you get in. What, water is not included?

I love to take pictures of doors. Cancun has some beautiful homes tucked away in the jungle, surprising you around each corner.

I have to get him out of the country to not think about cows and horses for a second. Although...... this looks a lot like he's thinking hard about something back home.

I think they new what a good lifestyle was even back then. Even if the local sacrificers came by and borrowed a kid or two, I'm sure it was a good life.

It felt like this much fun!

This was the entrance for all royalty into the city courtyard. They'll let anybody in there now who has $5.

We got there early in the morning and it was already getting hot and full of tourists.

The water was crystal blue and I could hardly stand staying out of it.

I can see why they used rocks. I've never seen so many (except in my garden)

I found out underwater cameras take pretty good "outawater" pictures too!
