Trip to Cancun Day 2

Well, we woke up this morning in Paradise. Dave and I headed to the "Workout" room and took advantage of that facility. Here is a brave couple parasailing. We hope to do this later in the week.

The person is standing in the pool but it looks like she is coming out of the ocean. The bumps that you see in front of her are lounges that you can lay down on and be in the water. Really neat....

Here we are at the Market. We rode the bus from our resort and wandered around this very huge market place where you can purchase authentic Mexican handicrafts, etc. I was taking a break and talking to Erin about what the kids would like under this tree with a nice gentleman who told us he was 90 years old and had been in the US during WWII. We talked to him for some time and enjoyed the goings on.

After shopping at the market we were told at the Resort that there was a good "authentic" Mexican restaurant near where we would be and so we tried to find it. We were reading the map, trying to find street signs (which were very speradic) and thought we were lost. As we turned a corner to cross a street we ran into a couple of Mormon Missionaries. Lo and behold, they could speak Spanish (gasp) and we were able to be guided to our restaurant for lunch. We invited them to join us but they said that they had things to do. We should have gotten a picture with them but did not. The food was good here but as usual they served too much and it was rather heavy for the hot weather. After we left the restaurant we had to walk what seemed like miles to, get this, Walmart. We picked up some supplies for the studio apartment and headed back via the bus.
