Trip to Mexico

We have just returned from our first trip to Mexico! I am glad we had the opportunity to go and to take the kids with us. We had a great time but also had our eyes opened to a lot. We stayed at a great Resort called the Barcelo Caribe and Beach Resort. It is just outside Playa Del Carmen. It was just beautiful and the beach was so nice. Lots of white sand and blue blue water. While we were there we were able to take a few trips away from the resort for some fun. We went snorkeling, went tubing down a canal into the ocean, jumped from a rope swing into the ocean (kids did it to) and went on a bike ride through the jungle or at least it looked like a jungle. We had a few wrecks on the bike ride when monkeys and Iguana's would cross the path in front of us. Scared us to death! Quite fun and I am sure we were quite the spectacle! We also went into the city one day and that is when I saw things that made me so grateful for what we have and where we live. I am glad that Rylie and Jackson were able to see how others live and how great we really do have it here in the US. We are really blessed!!
