The last bit of Mexico

The 10 day trip to Mexico was fantastic. We perfected the perfect beach day with K and spent lots of great family time together. Our best dinner was on our last night outside the Cancun area. We went to this cool Thai restaraunt that was on the water. Guests got to sit in little huts or tables directly on the water and the server came out with your meals. The food was divine, the atmosphere was awesome and K was an open minded eater that night! Hurrah for small miracles.

The second hotel was a complete flop and so we spent most of our days there luckily only two laughing about the experience. It was in the middle of a jungle and so had beautiful scenery nonetheless. We got to go to Tulum and Coba and check out the ruins. Really really cool. K climbed 150 feet on stairs in Coba to get to the top and we were all rewarded with a spectacular view of the Yucatan Peninsula. The second best meal we had was a lunch in Mayakoba sp? where K got her only mac and cheese of the trip, I had the most incredible tacos and T had fantastic enchiladas with cilantro rice. Yummy. We also saw lots of cool reptiles including tons of iguanas, K spotted a chameleon, saw crocodiles, heard a snake or two and watched beautiful butterflies fly around.
