Week of 4/27/2020 Mexico is a beautiful country filled with kind people, beautiful scenery and a stunning ocean! In 2018 my family (moms side) decided to take a big family vacation to Akumal, Mexico to celebrate my grandma beating Pancreatic cancer (and I am proud to say that she is still cancer free to this day and is living her best life)! Akumal is on the Yucatan Peninsula on the east side of the country, bordered by the gulf of mexico. After finally arriving in Mexico, we were going to meet up with the rest of our family who flew out of Minneapolis, MN. Since we were on different flights, the airport in Mexico has multiple terminals, had different arrival times, and were all having troubles getting cell service, it took us about an hour to try to find each other! After we finally did, we were off on our way to paradise! Because there were eleven of us, the house we rented was huge! There were five bedrooms, a kitchen, dining room, living room, several balconies, pool and was oceanfront! I honestly don't think we could have rented a better house for the week! Although we could have easily stayed at the house the whole time, we chose to explore the area! We stayed in Akumal, Mexico which is near the beautiful beach town of Tulum. Out of all of my travels, Tulum is one of the places that I would love to move to! Tulum borders a reservation that has tons of gorgeous beaches with probably the most beautiful ocean water color I have ever seen, which is the picture below! Along with exploring beautiful locations, My parents, Abby and one of my cousins Tait, all went to spend a day at an ocean water park called Xel-Ha! Xel-Ha (pronounced chel-ha) had many things for us to do like cliff jumping into the ocean, zip lining into the ocean, going on a ten story high ocean slide, and so much more! If you are ever in this area in Mexico, I highly suggest visiting Xel-Ha, even though it is pretty touristy! Mexico is a beautiful country that I have been so lucky to have visited a few times. There are many hidden treasures and adventures to take in Mexico. Mexico is a popular vacation destination that I would highly suggest anyone reading this to visit! I hope you enjoyed this weeks blog! Come back next week for a very different style of vacation blog post! Stay safe!
