MAZATLAN

Ok, Ok--we have been home since Monday and I haven't posted anything to the bog. Even Mike mentioned this fact to me. What can I say? I'm still trying to believe it myself that our trip has come and gone. Did we have a good time? ABSOLUTELY!! All my apprehensions were silly as it was probably one of the most fabulous trips we have ever taken. My first time flying happened without a hitch (I love Sun Country!), though I couldn't look out the window much. Let's not push that envelope quite yet. Mike, on the other hand, kept busy taking pictures almost the whole way there. We flew right over Storm Lake, so he has some great arial shots of the lake. If I could figure out how to put pictures on this, I would. Another day. The sights, the sounds and the food were awesome. We ate a lot of shrimp, finding coconut shrimp was a favorite. We ate at some unique places and met some interesting people and managed to do a little shopping. That is an experience in itself. And we did relax. Believe it or not, Mike actually was content to sit by the pool and do absolutely nothing. We thought that we would need to keep busy going places, but it just felt good to do nothing. I read two books while there and started a third. We also enlivened our days by not disappointing the pool boys. They just did not want us to go through the day thirsty, so we did oblige--often. They always let us know when it was "Two for One". The week went by fast and soon it was time to come home--only to leave 80 degree temps to come home to 30's. I thought that my winter coat was put away, but noooo--we had to have one more blast! We decided that this is a trip that we will take again. Thanks to Jennifer and Tony for asking us to tag along. We just needed that push, and we are grateful. Hope you all have a Blessed Easter. He is risen!!
