Alright, finally my post about my trip to Mexico. I have actually been dreading writing about this trip because it was a pretty miserable vacation. Here is a short summary of each day :)
Tuesday:
The first full day of being there it was cold and windy but we all sucked it up and went to the pool. I, of coursw, ended up with a really bad sunburn even though I put sunblock on every hour.
Wednesday: The next day we had plans to go fishing/snorkeling/ and walk around Isla Majures. We got about half way out into the water and it starts down pouring. There was nothing to cover us so we were just getting soaked and the wind made us extremely cold. We finally decided to turn the boat around and go back to the hotel. They boys decided to stay and they ended up catching some barracudas.
Thurday: J started feeling sick on tuesday night and on thursday he was full blown sick. We thought he had food poisoning so we left him at the hotel and headed to the beach since it was the first sunny and warm day.
Friday: J and I went to the doctor and they said he had bacteria in his intestines and was put on antibiotics. I hung out at the hotel with him most of the day and he came down to the beach for an hour or two. Later in the day J's brother started to feel sick and then I started to feel sick later the night. Full blown sickness for almost everyone begins. Throwing up, chills, fever, etc.
Saturday: after 14 hours of throwing up we head to the doctors and we all go on antibiotics. The doctors had no idea what was wrong with all of us but I believe it was a stomach bug that we caught on the plane. I spent the day in bed not moving.
Sunday (easter)- Starting feel a little bit better. Laid at the beach but still didn't feel well. J and his girlfriend headed back to the states. J's parents and I went out to dinner. My first full meal since getting sick. Although I didn't physically get sick I felt nauseous the rest of the night.
Monday: J's parents left. J felt 100% better, me not so much. I slept most of the day on the beach.
Tueday: headed back home to the U.S. Missed out connecting flight due to an hour and a half wait at customs. 4 hours later we finally board the plane and head back to DC.
I have never been so excited to sleep in my own bed. Now for very small amount of pictures I took while on vacation:
