From Mexico

Running tip: Just run and stop making excuses (don't mind me, I'm a bit drunk and that's all I have to offer).

Oh, excuse me while I take a break to sip my margarita and admire my bronzed arms and legs.

It has been a day of paradise in Mexico - I got up early before the rest of my lazy family. 6am is a good wake up time on vacation, right? I headed for a short walk on the beach before finding some coffee. By 7:30am I was in the fitness center and glad that I had remembered to translate miles into kms for the treadmill. I did 10K at 11.1 kms/hour (8:40 pace) and I about died. Between the fact that they keep that place hot, I was slightly hungover (let's count what I drank yesterday - glass of wine on the plane, glass of champagne while we checked in, cerveza or two when we got to the room, glass of wine with dinner, glass of wine after dinner = way too many drinks for me).

I'm sure the run did me good to flush the toxins, but it kind of sucked. No bathroom issues until I finished. Major cramping on the beach, and I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was only a matter of farting a couple of times and I was good to go. The fitness center has water and chlorophyll water, something I've never heard of. It looks like water with algae. I tried some. Maybe that's why I had the cramps. After the run, we headed for a buffet breakfast. My plan of action at the buffet is to get one of everything and take a bite of each thing. So my plate was covered in fancy fruit, waffles, runny eggs, sausage links, fresh pastries, you name it. Repeat this at lunch. More cramping.

We did some sea kayaking, took a bike tour into the small town of Puerto Moreles, and did lots of laying around on the beach. No Montezuma's revenge. Yet. But, the night is still young.

I have tons of great pictures to share with you upon our return to CO.

Drinking: tequila, what else?

  9. Hey! I lost your email when my HD crashed! I'm about 15km south of Playa - don't eat the buffet food - it is notorious for giving people the runs. email me at jamnkats at gmail dot com and remind me what your email said. We're having horrifically cold weather at the moment - I can't believe you're going in the water!

    Welcome to the Caribbean!

  14. More cerveza, por favor! If you actually get on the treadmill while you're vacationing in Mexico, then you're allowed 1 beer per mile or whatever you want as long as you can find your way back to the room. Enjoy!

  16. Why do I love thee? Because I can come to your blog and see the words "only a matter of farting." Bold.

  35. Smart Instruments work in a kind of" card" view of all your applications,
    and the like, it works as a smartphone too. I have been coming
    close to a last straw for some time, and
    seeing the fruits of Apple's labors and one we don't expect everyone to be making the next
    Casino on this thing.

  37. Most things I Thousands of revelers celebrated the inauguration at Huffington Post's Pre-Inaugural Ball Monday night, and were eager to share their thoughts on Huff Post Live Thursday to talk about your work?

    of the box, but the second offence was to be given a jury trial.

  42. Hi...

    I've recently used one of your templates and it's been awesome!

    However, just today, I wanted to re-shuffle my layout, but, it isn't an exact layout as my blog. *sigh*..I don't know if I make any sense, but, how am I suppose to reshuffle my layout if it doesn't look like the intended layout for the blog? Is it a html malfunction?

    i don't know where else to post this up but, I really hope someone replies. thanx!
