A great Sunday

On our siesta break today, Diane very kindly invited us to lunch, so of course we picked our favourite spot on the beach, the Mother in Law's, and had a lovely leisurely meal, followed by ginger tea at the papapa restaurant behind the Mayan Riviera Properties. Of course, you can't be on the beach without seeing the wonderful frigate birds - I just love them!




Thanks, Diane, for a great lunch!


After work we joined Sharon, Les and friends Sue and Deb, who had just arrived from chilly Ontario, for the Men in Blues at David Lau's, and then went to the Ixchel beach bar for a nightcap, a view of the illusive full moon, and a wander in the ocean before going home.


Ok, just one more frigate bird for the road!

Cancun with the Boyz

Ed and Kevin love to shop....so La Isla on the lagoon in the hotel zone is one of the most unique and amazing shopping spots in Cancun.



We even had a full moon peeking through.....!



The Parques las Palapas is the very first square/gathering place in Cancun, before the city grew to be what it is now - over a million people. One of the special things for kids is they can rent little electric cars - 20 pesos ($2 Canadian) for 10 minutes.

Mexicans love their food - these booths have every traditional dish imaginable and then there are the "junk food" stands with french fries, churros, marquestitas, etc.
