Our 11 nights / 12 days in Mexico are slowing coming to an end and we are nearing that point where you are ready to come home - although I still have another day or so left in me before I am ready to leave. All our excursions are done and now we are just enjoying the facilities on the resort and making sure we get to try out some of the A la carte restaurant's that we hadn't yet been too.
It has been an eventful holiday in terms of news as it the time we have been away both Ozzy Osbourne and Hulk Hogan have sadly passed away, but on a positive the England women's football team won the European Cup (again). The football was quite amusing as there was an American Sports Bar on site which had about 20x TV screens that were always showing things like NASCAR, NBA, NFL, MLB etc. However on the day England women played Spain in the final we talking the Sports Bar in to opening early (11 am o'clock Mexican local time) and the bar was completely overtaken by the Brits. It was such a good atmosphere watching the game in that environment and when that winning penalty went in the place erupted. The funny part about this story is that every time an American walked through the doors of the Sports Bar during the game they would see all the Brits and every TV showing the football and subsequently turned around and walked straight back out!!!!
In the evening we tried the Italian Grazie restaurant which had some absolutely amazing food and wine - plus the largest peppermill I have ever seen in my life!

To be fair Holly and Brandon are usually ok together, Josh and Holly wind each other up like a cat and dog. |
