We left Moon Palace Sunday morning with Veronica and Troy bound for Tulum. They dropped us off at our hotel and went on to their AirBNB. We really didn’t do much that night. Slipped out for dinner and drinks down the way and called it an early night. The next day we had breakfast and headed to the beach club for the day. Lucky me got sun poisoning . We met Veronica and Troy for dinner later. Tuesday, we got up and hit the Tulum ruins for somesighting and pictures. After our COVID tests we hit the road to Playa del Carmen for the afternoon. Fifth Avenue is just as I remembered it. Around 5pm we grabbed a taxi to Cirque du Soleil just north of PDC. We had an amazing 3 course dinner before the show and the show was like none other I’ve seen nor Tim has seen. Perfect way to wind up the trip.
I started to do a daily log here and that’s just not going to happen. There is just too much to describe and too little time. It was a rocking good time. I got to see my friends and make new friends. Every day after the first day our routine was basically sleep for 4-5 hours, get up and go to the pool for the day, then back to the room to get ready for the shows. Shows every night through to 2am. Lots of room service was ordered a 3am. OBH just never seems long enough.
We did a spa day on Friday. Perfect timing after the night 2 sets. A few good massages and we’re back in the game.
By the fourth night I had resolved that this was the best OBH I had ever attended. Ever since I was introduced to and started following MMJ my quality life has improved in nearly every way. I hope the fad continues frankly.
Day 1 – Tim and I arrived at the Westin by Dulles airport yesterday afternoon. The traffic was remarkably not bad for a Monday. The bar/restaurant was closed so we ordered Doordash from a local Italian place. The hoagies were pretty bangin’. We called a early night and arose this morning around 6am. Went down for a light breakfast, packed up, and called an Uber to the airport.
We breezed through security, found our gate, and found a bar next to it. Bar opened at 9 and we drank a few while we waited. They had Peroni which is an Italian beer that I like.
We boarded around 10am and got moving right away. Somebody brought a cat on the plane and that poor thing was meowing up a storm on takeoff. Three hours & 6-7 Bacardi and Cokes later we land in sunny Cancun. I organized a private transfer to the Westin Resort and Spa and they right there waiting for us. It was probably 20-30 mins to the hotel. We had an oceanfront studio room which was quite nice. After a couple brews we head down to the beach and run into a few folks that had just attended the Phish show at Moon Palace. Drank a few and talked for a while. Really nice folks. A while later we made our way to the spa for our scheduled massages then onwards to dinner after some quick showers. The food was phenomenal. We are calling it an early night as we are heading to Moon Palace tomorrow.
