Yes, usually we do a girls cruise but TH wanted "Somewhere on LAND!" so we found an all-inclusive!
Can I just start by saying that you DO NOT have to drink your money's worth in the first 4 hours??
I won't go into details because most of my travel companions read this blog but I will say that after 4 hours, we had some "Hot Cancun boyfriends (from Canada)" in the 21 year old range, our own personal medic, a group of "non-approving" women, the hotel staff knowing us AND our room number, a few girls (21 yr old range) mad at us because they were hitting on the 10 Canadian boys, a friendship with the cutest couple from Manhattan (she was a former Miss New Jersey) and my own creepy stalker guy!
So as you can see it was pretty much like any vacation I take with my girlfriends except this one was ON LAND.
I will say this.... as a MOM to 5 who is approaching 42, I still know how to have fun!
Here are some of the highlights....
- Cancun is a BLAST if you go with the right people!
- "The City" is the craziest club I have been too!
(We literally had our own escorts to/from the restroom!) - The bartenders at our hotel made the BEST drinks!
- My personal "shots only" plan worked wonders!
- The bus rides at 3am are funner than the clubs!
- Even in my 40's I can still attract guys, even if they are creepy!
(Shout out to you JP wherever you are!) - For those of you who laughed at me when you found out I bought blingy eyelashes... I got hit on by a HOT girl the night I wore them! As I tried to explain that I don't float that way, she was telling me that she couldn't help herself because "your eyelashes are so beautiful"!! HAHAHA
- Traveling with a friend who is pregnant is almost an absolute must!
(They can fill in the blanks, just in case!) - Tostados, refried beans, coffee and diet pepsi really do make the BEST breakfast.
- Sitting on a beach chair all day is really relaxing.
- The insulated cups I bought on zulily keep your frozen fruity drink frozen!
- Authentic Cancun tacos taste awesome at 3 am!
- Senior Frogs wasn't as fun as I had hoped!
(Maybe it was because I was wigged out about a couple who brought in their 9 MONTH old and 3 year old kids with them!) - A hour long massage on the beach feels so much better than at a spa!
- Walking on sand is a workout!
- Listening to a Cancun lady sing "Cupid Shuffle" is something that should be experienced by everyone!
- "Ciroc" coconut vodka and pineapple juice should be available everywhere!
- It is now a proven fact that you can get sunburned on a cloudy day!
(However, I am sporting a pretty awesome tan right now!) - While at the market, every 5 minutes someone was trying to get me to buy a shirt that said "I'm in Cancun Bitch!"
(Why? Why would I buy this? Is should have said "I was in Cancun Bitch") - Even at an ALL INCLUSIVE there will be some creep who "buys" you and your friends tequila shots.
- Having the hotel maid leave you and your friend "Lovebirds" out of towels is something that makes you both laugh all week.
