We're in Cozumel!

Hello all from Mexico! I tried to get on yesterday to blog but have such LIMITED knowledge of Spanish, I could not figure out how to sign in! Enough about that...

We arrived Thursday afternoon to partly cloudy but absolutely gorgeous weather. We got to our resort and were treated to champagne with a cherry and it was very tasty. The resort is very nice and I'll have pictures to post when we get back. We have a swim up suite which Trent tried out yesterday... you can swim over to the main pool and then swim back right up to your door. After we checked in to our room we went down to the beach where Trent went snorkeling and I read. Our afternoon was filled with sun and drinks so much so that at about 8pm when we were at dinner I hit the wall and it was time to come back and go to sleep. Trent and I both got close to 12 hours of sleep Thursday night! Yay, yay, ya-yay, yay. :o)

Friday we got up and went to breakfast... very tasty. They have the best coffee here and we both ordered omelets which were delicious! We've had the best food here at the resort. It's definitely a step up from the hot dogs they passed off as "sausages" at the resort we went to on our honeymoon. After breakfast we ventured over to the spa to sign me up for some spa treatments for today. Then we hit the beach! We read our books and had drinks. It started to rain on us so we went to the bar and had some guacamole and chips and drinks. We waited out the rain and then went to lunch. After we went back to the beach for more reading and drinks. We got in the pool for a little bit and then it was back to the room for a nap. That was NICE! We slept for a couple hours and got up, Trent went to the gym (he's so good remembering tennis shoes and work out stuff) and I got in the shower to get ready for dinner. We went to dinner and I had a delicious filet mignon while Trent branched out and had a seafood pasta. We also had drinks at dinner. :o) Then we went to a disco here on the resort grounds! It was so much fun and I was so impressed with Trent going and he even danced with me! It was pretty cool... they had a stripper pole in the middle of the room. I never tried it... even with Trent trying to persuade me. We had some drinks and listened to some good music and decided we should have a shot of Tequila since we are in Mexico. Well, we learned that you shouldn't order anything you don't want to have replenished as soon as you finish it. We took our shots and the bar tender immediately brought out a second. I declined the second and am glad that I did. Tequila and I are not friends... I knew I would have trouble if I took a second. Trent was nice and did his second and we left shortly after and came back to the room for bed.

We're now in day 3 of our vacation and I'm feeling rested and revitalized and I haven't even gone to the spa yet! I go in just a few minutes. I think Trent is going to stay here and sleep to recover from that 2nd shot. :o) It's a rainy morning much like yesterday... we're going to keep our fingers crossed for a nice sunny afternoon like we've had the past two days. We hope you all are doing well and we'll be back to the states tomorrow night.
