We are back!

Well as of a week ago we are back from Mexico. It was my first international trip and I think I set my expectation too high. I was not prepared for the poverty I saw when we left the airport on the way to our resort. I can see why they are leaving and trying to come to the USA. However it is crippling us because they have nothing to contribute to society. They take and take and give nothing back.
We flew into Cancun and stayed in Playa de carmen which is about 40 min outside of Cancun.
The resort was nice, very big and lots of marble. We originally went there for a wedding and we just turned it into a wks vacation so we were there with about 40 people. Trying to get 40 people together to do something is crazy! It is so hard to get people together for anything. The beach was beautiful. I got severly sunburned and had to stay out of the sun for 3 days. Tim got montezuma's revenge and was in the room for a day. He never did get to go 3 wheelin. We went to cozumel for a day. It was so much fun. Tim bought me a ring that is tanzinite and australian opal. very very pretty. it is proving to be a bit hard to get it resized.
all in all the trip was good but I am not looking to leave the wonderful USA for a long time.
It is amazing how much you appreciate something when you are with out it. I will be exspecially gratefull this 4th of July to be living in a country as wonderful as ours. I truly feel blessed to live here.
peace and love
