Easter and Spring Break 2009






Back to life....back to reality.....we are back from our Spring Break adventures! George arrived on April 8 and we hung out in the city until April 13. We walked down Reforma on a Sunday afternoon, visited Chapultepec, the HardRock cafe, ate some yummy tacos, soent eah day at the fair, and prepared to leave for Acapulco!

We left early early on Monday morning and arrived at our hotel at about 11:30 a.m. We changed into our bathing suits and hit the beach! We ate lunch on the beach and hung out for a bit. We then drove to watch the Cliff Divers. That was awesome! The next day we went to a free breakfast, went to hear about a time share (waste of time, but the breakfast was sure good). We went down to a beautiful beach and spent the day there relaxing, swimming, talking, relaxing...you get the drift! We ate some yummy dinner and crashed out for the night. On the third day, we went to the beautiful beach once again. We lounged around, left to eat pizza for lunch, then went on a sunset cruise of Acapulco bay. It was beautiful and relaxing. We got back to the hotel and relaxed, ordered in dinner, and crashed out. On the fourth day we all woke up dreading the fact that we were leaving. We got ready to check out of the hotel. We were then going to hit the beach before leaving for Mexico City again. Enrique and I got to talking and decided we should stay for another day. George agreed and we went to pay for another night at the hotel. The hotel was booked up for the night, so we decided to go find another one. We did! We got a beautiful ocean view room at the Avalon hotel so we checked in and spent the day at the beach once again! We went to see the Cliff Divers again that night, passed by the HardRock Cafe, and ate dinner at Planet Hollywood (thanks George!). We also did a little souvenir shopping. The next morning we woke up and went right down to the beach. Around noon we checked out, went to eat lunch, and headed back to the city. What a great trip! I feel totally refreshed, but I also feel like we saw a ton while we were there!

Easter was great! We dyed eggs with Gabby the night before and when she awoke on Sunday morning she found her basket and looked around to find hidden eggs. We spent the day walking in the city and passed by the HardRock for a snack.
