Barb's Birthday in Cancun! |
 |
|
|
We left Montrose April 24th and drove over the Continental Divide to Denver.
|
|
It was snowing as we drove over Vail Pass, but in 2 days we were swimming in the Caribbean south of Cancun!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We booked our all-inclusive trip through Apple Vacations. It included a chartered non-stop flight from Denver to Cancun with a shuttle to our hotel.
|
 |
|

|
After checking into our room at the Occidental Grand Flamenco Xcaret, we headed to the lobby bar for happy hour!
|
|
|
|
 |
We sipped margaritas and enjoyed the show and sunset ceremony. |
 |
|
|
The all-inclusive covers not only the room and air travel, but all the food and drinks you want. There are 5 on-site restaurants that require reservations, plus 3 buffets open most any time you want. The food was beyond our expectations!
|
 |
|
|
Our room was here and the island of Cozumel is here.
|
|
|

|
The Occidental has 800 rooms and the manicured grounds cover several acres.
|
|
|
From the porch of our room we saw this spoontail bird.
Our room overlooked the white-tail deer!
We enjoyed seeing the macaws and other animals and flowers all over the property.

We love it here! |
