Our Honeymoon

We had so so so much fun on our honeymoon! We went to Cancun, Mexico and stayed at this really cool resort that had about 1,000 pools on it! The water was always a perfect temperature. This first four picture our on the day we befriended our Mexican amigos on the shuttle to the highway. They have lived in the United States for ten years so they spoke really good english. Anyways, we were going to cathch the bus to Playa del Carmen, but they said they would give us a ride so RYAN said sure.......ha ha ha (Mallory kind of thought we were going to be killed and no one would ever find us). So we got in there car and we went to a really AMAZING beach right next to Tulum. We went ghetto style snorkeling and ended up spending the whole day with them. They wanted to take us to an authentic Mexcian resturant so that is where we ate dinner with them. It was really good actually (the whole time Mallory keep thinking man Robin would LOVE this) but we kind of suspect that is where we got sick. It was quiet an interesting yet memorable day to say the least!!!!!

The next five pictures are of the day we went and toured Tulum. We were going to die of heatstroke until we got to the water, but it was a really awesome place. They have all these tour guides that are LDS named Alma, Nefi, Moroni, etc. We went on a tour with Alma, and she gave us this great little private tour and it was amazing what she told us. And as you can see, this was the most beautiul beach either of us has ever been to in our entire life. It was amazing. The water was so clear, the sand was white, and then you had these rocks just jutting out with all this lush vegitation! We could have gone back every single day!!!!!!
That's Mallory in the water down below! Ryan came down and got in the water shortly after! We were having so much fun though, that we accidently showed up ten minutes late at the bus and everyone was looking at us mad.... ha ha ha
Seriously, is this not the most beautiful scene ever! We were swimming and snorkeling all right there!
These last two pictures of us are when we went to Playa del Carmen and we went to the beach and we ate lunch at this cute little resturant! It was really fun and our fajitas were very good, but very mexican style :)

Good times! It looks like you guys had so much fun! Isn't that the most beautiful beach ever in Tulum?! I just kept thinking about the people that lived then and built it all - just kickin' it... a little dip in the water, a little worship at the temple...

And, that cracks me up about your new friends. Did Ryan use a little portuguese on them?

Now I want a trip to Mexico. The problem is that Lennon prefers European vacations...
