Field Trip to Cancun 2009

HOLA


Got home fairly early Sunday evening but crashed soon after. Had a great time with the girls. It would have been more fun except that Horizon Air computers were down when we got to Eugene and we missed our connecting flight and had to spend the night in Seattle( did get to see Carla and Mitch for a few hours, we had a good visit) so we got to the resort late Wed night instead of Tuesday afternoon. None the less the girls got a full day at the resort on their own and had a lot of fun.
On Thursday we went to Playa Del Carmen for a shopping excursion, mostly so they could get a small taste of the culture and be harassed by all the vendors. On Friday Jody and Mel went on a catamaran to snorkel and a catered lunch with the CEO while Mike(a friend that lives in Vegas) and I stayed at the resort with Morgan and Danielle, Mike's 12 year old granddaughter from Alaska.
Those little girls had a blast and it was fun to watch them. On Saturday Morgan was invited to go swim with the dolphins and all the OF's hung out on the beach, that evening was a semi-formal farewell dinner with 750 of our Shaklee family. We all had a great time and are glad to be home. For more pic's click on the following link:

"Off We Go Into The Wild Blue"


Leaving for Cancun this afternoon, driving to Eugene to catch an early flight tomorrow AM. Mel and Morgan are flying out of Boise in the morning and will arrive a couple hours before we do. Mel and Jason have had a few issues with their house, burst water pipe, lots of water damage, had to move into motel, at least they have some fairly descent insurance, we hope. Got lots of fun stuff on the agenda at beach, plus a special day in Playa Del Carmen. Hurricane Ida heard we were coming so she just decided to go bother Florida, so we don't have to worry about real crappy weather. Scheduled to be back home late next Sunday night. We'll be thinking about you all.
