So we are back from Cancun, we had so much fun! even though we were only there for 4 days, well 2 really because 2 days were traveling we had a blast, we didn't really take a ton of pictures, ok we took some from the view of our balcony and one of the markets we went to, we brought it with us but never thought to take pictures, I guess we were having to much fun to remember to take it out.
Our first day there we took a bus downtown (about 5 minutes) to get swim stuff, finding some in Rexburg in December was kinda hard :) So we got some things at the mall, and decided to walk back, it was a really fast bus ride anyway....So 4 miles and 2 blisters later, (yes I walked in sandles, why would I bring anything else??) we got back to the hotel, and decided to walk down the beach, the water was so pretty, we saw a turtle caught in the waves.
Our 2nd day we did a jungle tour and went snorkeling, I was expecting a really cool jungle but it was far from that! but we were able to drive our own boat to the snorkeling place, that was really fun! I wish we would have bought an underwater camera cause I would have remembered to take pictures there, it wasn't the best snorkeling, I was expecting it to be alot more colorful, but we saw some huge coral and some really pretty fish, they were everywhere, as I was going under one about swam into my face.
Day 3 we were going to go to the ruins, but ended up not going,I still had a blister and didn't want to walk around all day in sandals so we just hung out on the beach for a few hours and then took an adventure...we got lost in cancun! A bunch of us decided to go to this place called market 28, (its a huge flea market) so anyway, we go with this group where one guys says he "knows where he's going" yeah right, he had no idea! we only needed to take 1 bus to this place and ended up taking 3, after the 2nd bus some guy got on the bus with us and took us there, So finally we arrive and go to exchange some money(cause the hotel was out) and the place wouldn't exchange travelers checks...Vince said stay here with these guys and I'll run to Walmart (which they said was 2 blocks away, it was actully 6) and got some money. Well...about an hour later he still wasn't back, that I knew of, I was getting kinda worried thinking he was lost or mugged or killed or whatever but eventually we found eachother, turns out he had been looking for me for a little while. Vince told me this funny story though while he was looking for me, one guy asked what he was looking for, he said "my wife" and the guy said, "oh she ran off with a mexican boy, but you can have my sister" haha he was told that a couple times, he got offered sisters and daughters. :)
but how can you be sad to leave such a beautiful, warm and sunny place when you get to come home to this...
He's our little jumping machine, we've been putting him in his jumper and he loves it, I need to get a video of him doing it still. But we got him an ExerSaucer, he's been liking that to.
One thing that he's been absolutely loving is playing peek-a-boo, sometimes he'll grab a blanket and put hit over his face and lay there until we start saying "where's Brayden?" then he'll start getting all excited and kick his legs, sometimes he will pull off the blanket with a huge smile on his face. I took a video of it today, he's been way more playful with it than this one, but it's still cute.
