Mexico Recap Days 3-5

Welcome back! Grab your tea -- or mimosa if you're like me and pretending you're still in Mexico -- and settle in to see the rest of our trip! Be sure to check out days 1&2 from yesterday if you haven't yet!

Breakfast with a view! Also, please note all of our "breakfast appetizers" of pastries.

After breakfast, we walked the famed 5th Avenue and saw this cute mall.

We also wandered down some of the side streets to see the little shops and restaurants.

We got back from walking around and I had a tour scheduled of the property and was so tickled when I saw my logo up on the board at the front desk.

The resort has a made-to-order bar where you tell the bartender what you like and they'll make a drink specific to you! It was such a cool little gem!

Once my tour ended, we found ourselves poolside again just in time for the Tribal party.

Complete with more acrobatics!

Different day, different book, same view.

Living my best life!

I didn't know for the longest time that the music was a live saxophone player, she was that good!

Ready for dinner!

Tres leches AND a frozen churro? Yes please!

That night's show included more acrobatics and rock music!

We wandered down to the beach for a little bit.

I loved exploring with him.

I'm sure he's trying to figure out a way how to move there.

Ready for our last dinner!

This might have been my favorite meal of the trip! I've never had sushi before (I don't like seafood) but I LOVED this vegetarian roll. Give me all the carrots, avocado and plantains please!

Remember that bar I was telling you about earlier that makes customized drinks? We visited it while we waited for the evening's entertainment.

Wishing this vacation would never end!

That night's entertainment was the Urban Show.

It even included some amazing soccer footwork!

Trying to soak in the last few minutes before heading back to reality.

Look at this cutie who was seated next to me on the flight!

Remember yesterday how Stephen didn't have a window? Well this time he had two!

Thanks for visiting Mexico with us. If you'd like to plan an actual trip there, please reach out to me at angela@daydreamdestinationstravel.com and I'd love to help you plan your dream vacation -- all at no extra charge to you!

Friday Favorites [8.5.22]

It's Friday again and I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika for some more Friday Favorites! Remember how last week in my book review I said that I read The Summer I Turned Pretty trilogy in about three days? I followed it up by watching the series on Amazon Prime and it is definitely a favorite. The show is so sweet and seven episodes was not nearly enough for me! I'm really hoping for a second season and it can't come soon enough! This Nashville-Style Hot salad is DELICIOUS! It's the Target brand good & gather and it's my absolute favorite. It has cornbread croutons and dill flavored dried cucumbers...I'm getting hungry just describing it. Plus it has the tastiest spicy ranch dressing that really makes the salad. When I buy these, I always pick up two because I love them that much. My Cricut has been a lifesaver over the last couple of weeks. Last week I had Covid and was going stir crazy being stuck in my house. Enter my Cricut. I made SO. MANY. st

July Book Review

I thought June was a good month for books, but somehow July was even better! This month saw seven books including a memoir, a YA series, some historical fiction, a beach read and suspense novel. Grab a glass of iced tea and open up your Goodreads account so you can add some of these books to your TBR list! My first read of the month was Over the Top by Jonathan Van Ness from Queer Eye. I was at the library looking for a different book when I saw this one and picked it up on a whim. I love the show and listened to Tan France's audiobook last year so I was excited to learn more about JVN and get some inside scoop on the show. That being said, I wasn't that impressed with the book. It mostly talks about his wild days and I do appreciate his vulnerability speaking out about mental health issues and how left untreated, it wasn't healthy -- or safe. I think I just went into the book with different expectations but that being said, I'm glad I read it. Next up was Not a Happ

Friday Favorites [7.29.22]

Happy Friday! I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some of my favorites that have helped me get through summer so far! When e-readers came out, I fought and fought against one. Everyone who knows me knows how much I love reading and my dad insisted on getting me one for every holiday but I kept saying no. It wasn't until I traveled abroad and had limited space in my luggage that I gave in and tried one. I haven't looked back once! Ten years later and I got a new Kindle....the Paperwhite . The balcony at my apartment is finally finished and decorated so I've been sitting out on it more and knew I had a couple of beach trips planned and reading on the Kindle Fire is difficult with the glare from the sun. The Paperwhite makes reading outside so easy and the battery lasts forever! I didn't have to charge it once when I was in Mexico! I discovered this sunscreen last year and am OBSESSED! I've always known Trader Joe's was great for food but who knew
