As promised here are some pics from our holiday:

The Hotel Lobby


One of the many pools


The Beach


Some of the beautiful gardens around the resort


Mayan Ruins at Tulum


Access to the beach where some of the sacrificial ceremonies took place. The sacrificee would hurl themselves off the cliff down on to the rocks below.

Sorry, no shots like that, but the wife took one of a married couple that had to weigh 700 lbs between them. He was in a speedo and she was bare chested. Would you like to see that one Leah?

Laurie, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. This was the first time for me to the Carribean side. I've been to Acapulco, Puerta Villarta, Cabo San Lucas, Ixtapa and Xihuataneo, and I have to say I don't think I'll ever go back to the Pacific side again.

I stayed at that resort back in the year it first opened. Some of the best snorkeling I did down there was off that beach! Lots of gorgonians, sea whips and sea fans ... great to see them again, thanks for the pictures to rekindle the memories!!

Came VERY close to booking down there this winter but decided against on account our one year old has a bad tendency to drink any water that he can find - bathtub, shower, etc. .. maybe when the rugrats are a bit older ..
