Hola! Mexcio was amazing and I didn't want to come back at all. I could have laid in that hammock on the beach for the rest of my life. I got a splendid tan, drank too many drinks and had a great time with my partners in Mexican crime.
Here are a few tips for those of you thinking of taking a vacation in Cozumel:
1) Be prepared for long lines at Mexican customs - and no A.C.
2) Be prepared for a lot of pico de gallo at the buffet.
3) Beware of jellyfish while snorkling. I was not ready for that jelly. Ouch.
4) Be sure to ask how far your restaurant is prior to jumping in a cab and going all of 100 yards before it comes screeching to a halt and you have to cough up $12.
5) Be sure to ask your waiter for the check and not a jacket when trying your hand at Spanish.
6) Be prepared for "beds" made of rocks.
7) Be ready to over-consume fruity drinks while on the beach and then wonder why you're so full all the time. And bloated. And wide awake at 2am.
8) Be prepared to be felt up while dancing at bars.
9) Be sure to ask the bouncer at one club for directions to another club that happens to be roughly six feet away. The be prepared for the bouncer to look at you like you are on crack.
10) Eat at The Lobster House. Order the Key Lime Pie for dessert and when the bring you after dinner shots, drink them. When they offer you the bottle on the house, accept it. Don't be alarmed that it comes in a Hynotic bottle but is not in fact, Hypnotic. Trust me, is so fantastic. And the hangover ain't bad.
11) Eat at Aquatico. The dining room is a deck over the ocean and it's gorgeous. When the waiter tells you the total in USD, verify it on the bottom of the bill. That fool thought he was going to make and extra $20 on us.
12) Be sure to jet ski. When you think you've lost your hat, be sure to circle back and look for it for a while before realizing it's stuck in the back of your life vest.
13) Don't be a hero.
Pictures will be added soon as I fully intend on braving the rain/snow/sleet outside today (Oh, Spring in the Rockies) to get my photos at lunch.
