$100 Tequila Drink in Tequila, Mexico

It costs $100 but not because it’s expensive tequila in a small snifter!  

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!!!

Music Monday – “I don’t practice Santeria, I ain’t got no crystal ball/I had a million dollars but I’d, I’d spend it all.”

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 […]

Music Monday – “And there’ll be sun, sun, sun all over our bodies/And sun, sun, sun all down our necks/And there’ll be sun, sun, sun all over our faces/And sun, sun, sun, so what the heck”

Hey look!  I went through an added an “allinclusive” tag to all my posts about various aspects of our all-inclusive holidays over the years to make them easier to find instead of just using the “holiday” tag which is a bit broader. I’m clearly getting excited with three weeks to go (and songs like the one […]

Friday Fun Link – Aeromexico Trolls Racist Americans

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

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Walk Through of Our Room at Moon Palace, Cancun (February 2018)

So in exactly one month, we’ll be on our way to Cancun…but who’s counting? (Well, I guess I’m counting, especially since the weather’s been -40 recently!) Anyhow, I finally got around to uploading another room walk-through video from our resort last year. I always have intention to do something a bit more professional/polished on our […]
