Back to Mexico 2010

In a slightly sporadic move, we decided last Sunday to return to Mexico in August 2010.  In my head, the excuse was 'well, it is our anniversary, and the prices are just so low in August...' - when really there is no good excuse.  The notion of 'needing' a vacation or a break from general life stuff has always been lost on me, which is probably why at the ripe old age of 30, I can't even sit still long enough to watch a whole movie.  This is a sad fact that my husband is attempting to help me overcome.  So back to Mexico it is!  We'll be staying at one of the resorts that was on the original list of wedding resorts, but at the time was in a price bracket that concerned me (in terms of our guests and the cost of the ceremony/reception).  However, this down economy must be doing something 'right' because now we, and some of our friends, will be going for 6 nights of glorious all-inclusive pleasure!  Excellence Playa Mujeres got great reviews on Trip Advisor (www.tripadvisor.com) and was actually once owned by the same company who built our wedding resort (Secrets Maroma Beach).  So we have good confidence that we will have excellent (ha) food, service, and accommodations.  I am personally excited to have NOTHING to plan or pull off (a wedding, for instance) and to get to just enjoy myself.
