CJ and AUD go to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, 2010.
I have hundreds of photos & a handful of playful videos from this trip.
I cannot possibly sort through & choose only a few for one post, & please don't make me I have far too many favorites from each day!!
Therefore, prepare yourself for a possible "series" of Mexico posts w/ far too many photos.
WHO: CJ, AUD, Carl (CJs dad), & Katie (CJ's sister)
WHAT: Travel to Mexico
WHERE: Playa del Carmen, Mexico (South of Cancun)
WHEN: June 22-June 29, 2010
WHY: CJ's uncle John was getting married to Ixiim in Tulum
Side note: I made a scrapbook of our Mexico travels & this is on the first page... name that tune!
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of an awesome trip.
That started in a big airport, and ended on a bumpy ship.
The condo that they got they knew had charm and great allure.
Four passengers went away that day for seven days of leisure,
for seven days of leisure!
The wedding that was on the beach, the jungle that was crossed,
If not for the excellent company, the trip would be a bust,
the trip would be a bust!
They chose to make some plans to go see south of Mexico.
With Carl Olson, the Junior too, the little asian and her smile, the big sister... They all set out with a plan, here in the Yucatan!
the four of us before Deanna & Juliann brought us to the Sacramento Airport
Waiting for our red-eye flight to Houston, Texas
Leaving the plane in Houston... Our first sunrise of the trip!!
My passport was the oldest of the bunch. I got it when I went to France in high school.
See you later USA, MEXICO here we come!!
We were in this long line of planes waiting for lift off..
The clouds are so fluffy I just want to jump on them! (if of course I wouldn't plunge to death)
Carl took a picture of us taking a picture of ourselves.
Great pic from Katie's iPhone!
The airport in Cozumel was so small that we exited the plane onto the tarmac...
I had never done that before but it felt like I was a superstar!
Waiting for the Ultramar ferry boat to take us to Playa del Carmen.
Carl took several panoramic pictures throughout the trip & I LOVE them!!
Waiting patiently in the hot & humid weather! phew!
On the boat!
These guys sung to the passengers, they were awesome!!!
Hola, Playa del Carmen!!
Arena Blanca is the condo that we stayed it.. It was awesome.
& awesome is an understatement!
Great view of the pool downstairs!
We quickly changed and decided to walk to the beach, since we were only a few blocks away.
That evening, John & Ixiim had a little get together for dinner at their condo (a larger condo in Arena Blanca).
They cooked some delicious tacos and there was fresh fruit... We ate soo good that night!
Uncle John & Carl
The next morning we got up and decided to head down to the beach...
It was very warm already but the sand was cool, the ocean water a perfect warm temp!!
this picture reminds me of complete and utter bliss!

Arena Blanca provided beach towels & chairs!
Afterwards, we went to a close by outdoor restaurant for brunch. Then hopped into our condo's pool, and later went to 5th Avenue (shopping district/tourist central!!)
Such a relaxing place!
Lunch at 100% Natural, fresh squeezed juices were SOOO yummy!!
The food was positively delicious!!
Found this cool mural on our walk back to the condo...
CJ bought a couple of these shirts for his friends... boys (shaking head)
...to be continued...
