10 Things That Make You A Bad All-Inclusive Guest

I had the idea for this list after a couple experiences at the Moon Palace last year and in researching it further, I see I’m not the only one with the idea. So below is a list of my own observations but which overlaps in many ways with some of the articles I’ve found that […]

Music Monday – “Everybody sour like a lemon tree/I’m just smiling down upon my enemies/Do this shit, I love it on the daily/You say you hate your job, but you’ll never leave, never leave”

Happy 40th Birthday, Shea!

It’s hard to believe that you and I have been together for more than half of your life. Thanks for all the great times, good memories and two gorgeous kids. I can’t wait to continue the birthday celebrations one week from today in Mexico! Love you!!!

Some Insight Into All-Inclusives (Yay – We Leave In Two Weeks Today!)

  In my reading and research about all-inclusives, I’ve come across some interesting articles about the changes in the industry – from the early days of Club Med in the 1970’s pioneering “pay one price” vacations that featured mid-range accommodation, bland buffets and watered down drinks right on through today when all-inclusives are an ever-expanding […]

Friday Fun Link – Hyatt Ziva Cancun as seen from a drone

Have been spending a lot of time thinking about one of the great curses of tropical holidays – you usually book them six months or so in advance so you have no idea how the weather will be when you go! We don’t leave for a couple weeks but right now we’re in the midst […]

No idea if I’d meet their qualification for this deal but would be a great way to get a discount on a flight to Mexico if I did! 😉

Music Monday – “Stick it up, mister, hear what I say, sir, yeah/Get your hands in the air, sir/And you will get no hurt, you say”

Countdown is on to our Mexico vacation – less than a month now! Plus the temperature is -35 and falling as I type this so our holiday can’t come fast enough. Maybe this song can warm me up? “54-46 – That’s My Number” – Toots and the Maytals
