Helloooooo Cancun!! We couldn't wait to hit the beach! The weather was perfect.........NO SNOW! The first picture was taken at our resort on our way to the beach! We couldn't get over the color of the water! It was beautiful! Lance spent alot of time body surfing! I body surfed until I got worked over by the waves! I can still taste salt!
The second picture is from Chichen Itza......our favorite part of the whole week! We went on a tour with a guide who was a member of the church and native of that area. The group we were with were all members also and our guide (Helaman, and that was his real name!) taught us alot about how these ruins related to the Book of Mormon and alot of the history of this area. Our testimonies of the Book of Mormon were definatley strengthened.
After our day at Chichen Itza our guide took us to a Cenote .....which is basically a cave with water in the bottom of it. The third picture is Lance jumping off the cliff into the Cenote. The water was cool but not cold and much welcomed since the day was so hot and we were all suffering from a little heat stroke! I jumped too and it was scary!! Ethan asked me how high it was and I told him I thought it was 50 feet but Lance said it was only 15 feet! It doesn't look like that when you are looking down!! There were little fish in it to that would swim around your feet and tickle your toes!
It was a great week! We already miss the sun!
