So over Spring Break I went to Cancun, Mexico. This trip was for my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary.
I got to leave school a day early so my break started on Wednesday. Thursday morning my mom, my dad, and I got up at 2 AM to drive to Nashville to catch our 5 AM flight to Atlanta and then on to Cancun. We arrived in Cancun a couple hours before the rest of our group which consisted of my brother, my two cousins, my aunt, my uncle, and my grandparents so we got in a taxi and took a one hour drive to the all-inclusive where we were staying. When we got there it was amazing. Immediately we went out and sat on the beach and waited for the rest of my family to arrive.
Everyday I got up around 10 or 11 and went and ate at the breakfast buffet. Then I went out and sat on the beach. My days there were filled with drinking beverages, snorkeling, kayaking, and playing beach volleyball. Unfortunately, I got a nasty sunburn one of the days so I just left a t-shirt on the rest of the week so the burn would not get too bad. One of the days my whole family went to another beach by taxi. This beach we went to is famous for its residential juvinile sea-turtle population. I was so exciting getting to swim with sea-turtles. Also while snorkeling there we saw a 5 foot baracuda that was terrifying huge.
Our nights were filled with hanging out at the Sports Bar, going around to shops, and going to the different restaurants on the resort. Our favorite restaurant had to be the Japanese Hibachi Restaurant.
The flight home was a bit more rocky. We were stuck in Atlanta for the night and had to sleep in the airport because of a big thunder storm in Nashville. So we got a very bad night of sleep but, luckily we were able to catch a flight at 8 the next morning and we were home by noon.
Overall it was a magnificent trip.
