We spent our first night in Richfield and it was such a great idea. We didn't have to drive for hours after our long day! Sunday morning we went back to my parent's house for brunch. We had pull-a-parts and leftovers from the wedding. We had all our family there to be with us. We also opened our gifts and that was a lot of fun too.
Then it was off too our new home for the night! We got up really early on Monday- off to Cancun. Zack did such a good job planning the honeymoon. It was AMAZING. It was really hot and humid there, but it was so much fun. We didn't get there till really late on Monday so we just looked around at our resort and went down to the beach. IT WAS AWESOME.
Our first night in CanCun
The next day we just stayed at our resort for the day and played in the pool and took advantage of the great sun! We went down to the beach and then went up to the pool after a while. We didn't really do anything that day. Later that night we took a taxi to a sister resort and had dinner and played a little "put put"
Our day at the beach
Hole in 4?
Our next day was our first big touring day. We went to Chichen Itza- is is one of th most importnat Mayan Ruin sites in Mexico. It is a huge area of ancient building that the ancient people built. The Larg "pyramid" looking structure was so amazing. Its name was Kukulcan's Pyramid or El Castillo meaning "the castle" El Castillo was actually a huge solar calendar. If you did the math, you would find that the 91 steps on each side, times 4 for each side and each season, plus 1 for the crowning platform adds up to 365 -- one step for each day of the solar year. During the equinoxes, the shadow pattern of the pyramid's steps seems to show a serpent climbing up the steps in March, and down the steps in September. Everything there was just really amazing. Its crazy to think ow long its been there and how accurate they were. Who needs computers!?!?! The only bad thing about this day was that it was SO HOT AND HUMID!!! We were both so miserable. It was 105 degrees and probably abone 90% humidity. We were both just wanting to die! 
El Castillo
El Castillo - There were thunder clouds in the sky.... We wished it would have just rained a little
Some crazy looking building- we didn't really know what it was it just looked cool
Help HELP!!! The crazy serpant is going to eat my husband!! lol
It was time to go back-- we were drenched in sweat, hot, miserable, hungry and tired. Being a tourist is hard work :o)
The next day was a lot more fun. We took a boat to an island that it north of Cancun- Isla Mujeres "Island of the women" We had A TON OF FUN. The boat ride there was fun and so beautiful. We were so amazed at how beautiful the water is. It is the most beautiful blue color and you could see all the way down. When we got to the island we took another little boat tour that took us around the island. The funnest part was at the north end of the island the boat stopped and we got to jump out and play in the water. It was about 5 feet deep and crystal clear. It was amazing. After that we went to the "shopping district" or as we would say the GHETTO!!!! There were all the little tourist shops and just lots and shady people and things to buy. So Instead of spending money on crap we did something we wanted to do while on vacation- We took a ride on a Vespa- beep beep :o) It was so much fun. We just rode around for an hour. We had a blast. After that our day was pretty much over. We headed back to Cancun and had an amazing night at our resort. 
Our first boat trip to Isla Mujeres. It was such a beautiful day
When we got off the dock there was this huge cage built in the ocean. These 2 guys had this 6' Nerf Shark that we got in the water with. It was awesome. We got to hod it and touch it-- and surprisingly it was really rough like sandpaper. It was awesome though! Don't worry it doesn't bite :o)
We made a stop where they have all the dolphins that you could swim with. We didn't swim with them because we had heard from his aunt that if you want to swim with dolphins we should go to Cozumel. So we skipped the dolphins and just relaxed in paradise.
When we got on the dock at the "shopping district" there was this ship docked. It is the Black Pearl!! Zack loves Pirates of the Carribean so we couldn't miss out on getting a picture with the BLACK PEARL!!
We LOVED riding around on our little vespa motorcycle. It was such a good way to end our day. We just rode around for an hour. There were a couple of times we got a little scared. We took this little road (and when i say little i mean little!! The roads there seem about half the width of a 2 lane road here!) out along the coast and it took us into a little town. It was a little scary we decided really fast that it was time to turn around and head back!! BeepBeep :o)
Our last day in Cancun we went snorkeling. And being the blonde that I can be sometimes I forgot to buy a water-camera so I didn't get any pics of what we saw :o( But we had an awesome time. We got on a catamaran and headed out to the ocean. We took a short little cruise and then stopped at the reef. We had such a blast. There were so many little fish surrounding us. At one point I got a little scared because they were surrounding me!! It was such a crazy feeling. After we snorkeled we just relaxed on the most beautiful beach!! The sand was so white and so fine. The water was two brillinat colors of blue and the air smelt of salt. We just relaxed on the beach for the rest of the day. What a way to end a beautiful week in Cancun
On the Catamaran to go snorkeling
Just chillin- this beach was the best out of all that we went to.
I love this picture because it shows how great the water is. 
While we were eating these two came up to us and asked if we were honeymooners. They put these HUGE sombraros on us and then sang us a love song-- Aawwhhh how sweet
