Re: Pinned: The official "Vacation" Thread
Okay, now to talk about my vacation. I'll get you guys pics later if I can.We were on a 4 hour flight and then an hour-long bus ride to get there. The hotel was nice. It was made in the middle of the forest. There were a lot of bugs in the rooms though. Someone in one of the better rooms found a scorpion and turantula, but her room had a butler that killed them.There were plenty of resturant there. We mostly at at buffets and the food was pretty good. We went to Playa del Carmen twice for the shopping and site-seeing. We also went and saw Cozumel and went to a restuarant. The chips and salsa and guacomole there were great!Then there was also this hot girl that seemed to like me but I didn't talk to...At the hotel there were a lot of pools, like 10 of them all around. And there was a water slide my brother really loved. Good sandwich place too really near the pools.I also ordered room service once. It was a very good burger. Swiss cheese, lettuce, mushrooms, avocado, red onions and caramelized onions. I really liked it.Then we went to Xel-ha for snorkeling. I didn't like it too much but I saw a lot of fish.The spa was cool. The gym was the greatest and I spent a lot of time there watching the CWS and World Cup on the TV's that were on the treadmills and bikes. I'm glad I found that gym because I ate a lot so it was good that I could work out. In the spa there was also a room with a big TV, comfortable couch and chairs and coffee. Nice place. That spa had everything. I didn't have enough time to explore it all.The service was just amazing. You'd go to a restuarant and they'd open up your napkin and put it on your lap. Then after you went to get more food you'd come back to find your napkin folded again. They'd get you everything you wanted and were very nice. They called you Mr. or Mrs. all the time. I loved it.I can't believe it but I actually had 5 burgers in 7 days. It was more Mayan then Mexican food were I was so I didn't get many chances for tacos y burros so my favorite meal that whole time I was gone was the Taco Bell food I had 30 min before I got home.
