Cancun, Mexico (9/4/2011 - 9/9/2011)

Back in January Casey's coworker invited us to go to Cancun with him and friends. Of course we couldnt pass that up!! Resort/flight were all booked in January....which made for a VERY LONG wait to September. The day had finally come and we couldn't have been any more excited!

Saturday afternoon we headed down to Vegas to start off the vacation. Our flight was at 6 am.

Arriving in Cancun was a very different experience for me, seeing as how I have never been....a) on a big plane and b) out of the country! The final desent into Cancun you could feel the heat! It was so muggy...needless to say if my hair wasnt curly in a bun it was in a hat!

We stayed at an all-inclusive resort called "Excellence Playa Mujeres". If anyone is looking into a trip to Cancun I HIGHLY recommend you stay there! The staff are all very professional and friendly!

While in Cancun we were able to swim with the dolphins, explore the island, go snorkelling and relax by the pool/beach.

It was the best vacation I have ever been on! I hate being back to work but I love being home!

Now for picture overload....ENJOY!!!!
