Todd and I escaped to the Mayan Riveria for a week of sun, mojitos, snorkeling, laying on the beach and just relaxing. Emily and Liam went to Brooks so it was just us. I felt slightly guilty for going without them, but the feeling quickly disappeared when I looked around and saw that the miserable people were ones with kids. We took ours to Mexico when Liam 17 months old and Emily was 4 so I completely understood where these people were coming from. Not easy traveling with toddlers.
We also met lots of nice people, particularly a family from Scotland and another one from Ireland.
Now, where to next?
Just arriving. Feeling the humidity and heat!
