Hey guys - we'll work on ours over the next few days and get something posted very soon. We promise. All I'll say right now is that this trip was the most exhilarating and fun trip we have ever taken...hands down! Even the rain that hit didn't stop us from having a ball. More to come in the next few days! We gotta focus on work (poo!) and get our heads above water first... Aaron & Rebecca
Warning This is a LONG trip report. Sorry it's a bit like a book but kind of relived the whole week by writing this. Made me feel a bit better about being back home... Tuesday Took the red-eye flight in and landed about 11:30 and arrived at the resort by 12:30. Not sure if it was the speedy customs/immigration or the Olympus tours guy that I swear was Dale Earnhardt reincarnated as a tour van driver. Check-in was a breeze but had to wait on rooms. Had lunch and drinks at Margaritas while we waited and adjusted to the humidity. We roamed the resort taking in the atmosphere and tried to find all the bars and restaurants. Got into our room by 1:45 with the help of Alexx the bellman. Big shout out to him. He was awesome and remembered us every time we ran into him throughout the resort during the week. Took about a 2 hour nap due to not sleeping at all the night before. Slipped on the square cut trunks and headed out to soak in the rays on the beach. Ahhh now THIS is why we came to Cancun! Grabbed a drink and found the Temptation to be a very refreshing concoction. That was by far my drink of choice the whole week. I have to admit though, it does tend to turn certain bodily functions a funky color! Talked the hostess at the Wok into squeezing us into a table that evening. Had the best service here than we had at any of the restaurants. Felipe my friend - you are the most awesome waiter we have ever had the pleasure of being served by. Not just at TTR - but ANYWHERE! Such attention to detail. For anyone going to TTR, ask for Felipe at the Wok. He worked at Margaritas a few times during the day and he remembered us from our first night there. Such a lasting and memorable impression. Wednesday Aaron was up early as normal and went down to take photos at the beach. Damned humidity and a cold camera took close to half an hour to agree with one another. While there, met Enrique or Fabio or whatever his name was. This particular morning he was sporting a mesh g-string suit and taking all kinds of timed photos/videos of himself in the water and on the beach. Dave/Ellie - I've known many transvestites in my life and I would say he was far from it. He just had a very European attitude about himself and was very metro-sexual. Little did I know at this time though, the guy had more outfit changes than anyone I've ever met in my life! Met Bob and Kay from the forums at the pool (the little orange bracelets were a dead give away) around lunch time. You guys are kick ass! You really helped us feel at ease with everything and were not shy about inducting us to the finer points of the resort (even NTV...more on that later). I would love to plan our next trip around when you guys will be there so we have some super cool people to party with and love your openness and the way you think! We spent the day just going back and forth from the pool to the beach and ocean. Rebecca did take a slight spill next to the pool walking back to get something from the room. I remember sitting by the towel cabana and seeing security running over but didn't know what it was for until she came back. Later that day, I did the same thing on the stairs going to the beach. Still have the scrapes and bruises...ouch! The group from England - damn ya'll are a wild and loud bunch thanks to the world cup. Dinner was at the buffet which was 'ok'. I mean it's a buffet, what do you expect. Naughty school girl night...what fun Rebecca and Kay had. It was a shame that we had lots of support here but nobody else participated that was down there. Both the girls looked really sexy - especially my lovely wife (you too Kay) My wife is very conservative so was awesome seeing her show a bit of skin and embrace her sexuality. Rebecca and I took the group bus down to a night club and danced all night (can't recall the name). We did get a bit screwed as the shot girl wasn't clear (not to mention a very thick accent and deafening music) that the shots were NOT included in our all-inclusive price. I want to give a big shout out to Chris from TTR for bailing us out. I didn't bring any cash beyond a bit tip money so it saved our butts. We were also HIGHLY pissed that they failed to tell us that we had to find our own way back to the resort. I literally had $5 on me at that point so we walked over to the bus stop to go back. A taxi driver came speeding up and asked where we were going and said it would be $10 US to get back. Told him I had 5 and showed him the cash and he took us anyway. Nice guy. He takes pride in all his international visitors and had a scrapbook with postcards from around the world people have sent him. Gave us a little card with his address and name. Really reminded me that there are nice people everywhere and it's always a good idea to 'pay it forward' every now and then...Need to send him something from SLC. Thursday More pool and beach time. Lots of fun games by the pool. Chinos was fun and really kept everyone engaged through the day. Lunch at Margaritas this time - nothing special but quite filling and satisfying. Ran into Felipe from the Wok and he came over and talked to us a bit. Brought us a big glass of the Wok's welcome drink. I think this will be my new favorite drink to serve company when they come to the house! lingerie Night...OMG what the hell did I get myself into?! Told Rebecca if she did it, then I would too. Brought along my 'body builders' show type g-string that I keep in the drawer for those sexy late nights in the hot tub at home when all the neighbors are supposed to be sleeping. While at Patty-O's with Kay & Bob, ran into another couple from here who were on their honeymoon. Chatted with them a bit and met the group from Manchester & Wales. Damn you Brits know how to party! After talking with these guys for a bit and a couple tequila slammers, ripped my shorts off and stood around in my man-kini for the rest of the night. Needless to say, I got more attention than I bargained for. The guy from Manchester had one on too and after a bit of ribbing, he stripped down too. The ladies said I looked better though Went into Nice Shoes for the casino night and to finish off the lingerie night. Participated in the lingerie show myself and while I didn't get into the finals, had a ball (almost literally) strutting and thrusting around on the stage. If anyone took any pics this night, please let me know. The wife didn't get the camera out fast enough and missed taking pics of me. Note: Speck she did get one of you in your superman briefs so PM me and I'll send it over to you. Danced the rest of the night damn near naked and had fun doing it. The tequila was flowing very heavily. Had my ass slapped a number of times in line at the bar and had one gal grinding up against me. Turned around thinking it was my wife and to my surprise, it wasn't. Enjoyed the attention though (shhhh don't tell her that!). After many more rounds of tequila and my knee feeling like I blew it out dancing, headed back to the room. Stopped by Patty'Os for another round and a burger on the way. Damn those greasy burgers tasted good when your 3 sheets to the wind! Me and a couple guys from Ireland and somewhere else in the UK helped a poor gal who was damn near passed out drunk back to her room. Really felt bad for her. So drunk it took 3 of us to get her back there. I can only imagine what she thought as she hung her head down while walking and saw my bright pink g-string...LOL. Back at the bar, got my ass slapped again. Found that some gal was talking to my wife and thought I was gay until she convinced her otherwise...LOL Friday Spent the ENTIRE day at the pool. Met Trent, Terri, Speck and Jill at the pool in the morning during Sexy Trivia. You guys were so much fun and it was cool meeting others who were TTR virgins. After the trivia - Bob, Kay, and Speck talked me into naked tequila volleyball. I figured I wouldn't have to get naked unless I lost. Apparently the rules changed this week. We all jumped in and stripped down and started playing. I really admit I was trying hard but apparently I was screwing up too much. Chinos and Chris both surrounded me, layed me on the surface of the water face up and rocked me back and forth while they sang some stupid song (couldn't hear it - my ears were full of water). The guy from Manchester hit it out of the pool by Buddha and had to run out and give Buddha some love. He stood up there and posed for I swear 5 minutes. All of us were laughing our butts off. Speck hit it out as well and had to run for the ball. Unfortunately he had to chase it as the folks passing by kept kicking it. It was all fun until we lost the first 2 games quite miserably. Due to our poor performance, after the roll in the sand we had to go waltzing around the sexy pool. We all walked in all our glory with all the pride we could muster. Again, anyone taking pictures of all us sandy naked souls either at the sexy pool or during the game, PM me. Rebecca didn't get any pics at all and I want proof of my drunken naked antics Had dinner at the Italian restaurant. Nice and romantic and the food was quite good. We preferred the food and service at the Wok but don't miss either spot. They're both well worth the hassle of making reservations. Headed off to bed and channel 12 for a semi-early bed time for a change. Saturday Scheduled a day excursion down at Tulum and Xel-Ha. It rained the entire drive to Tulum and for the first half hour there. It dried up enough to pull the camera out and get some good photos of the ruins. Xel-Ha was incredible. Despite the tropical storm on top of us stirring up all the sand, we spent 4 hours snorkeling and being amazed at all the sea life. Seeing it in photos does not do this justice. Simply amazing and awe inspiring. Next time we come down, we plan on a full day there (preferably sunny!) so we can experience the whole park. Got back late and managed to get Alex from the Wok to get us worked in for dinner. Even though the day was stormy, it was probably the most amazing and perfect day! Sunday Had a final breakfast with Bob and Kay at the buffet. Again I have to say you guys are an incredible couple and spending the week hanging with you was a blast. We hung out at Margaritas having final drinks (lots of them) while waiting for the shuttle. Spent more time BS'n with Alexx until Dale Earnhardt arrived. We're still working on photo's so will get some posted soon and update the thread here. Again, if anyone has any photos from lingerie night of the tanned but fluffy guy in a black and pink g-string or of the naked tequila volleyball and the parade around the sexy pool, please let me know.
Great Trip Report, so glad you had so much fun, wish we were there... the count down for us has begun....
Just put some pics up. Hope you can all get to these! June 2010 TTR album | Afrazier5 | Fotki.com, photo and video sharing made easy.
Thanks for the TR...makes me miss it so much, i think I need to book again soon lol... Is the song they sing in NTV still "Happy Birthday f*cking loser, happy birthday f you?" They actually flipped me upside down a few times and did dirty things to me (well the girls did) last time i played a few years ago haha... Oh and anyone could have told you about the transport back to the hotel not being included from the clubs...i'm surprised they didnt mention it when you got your wristbands, maybe they assume everyone knows? Cabs start asking for $15 and usually settle for $8 or 10, so $5 was great....And I forgot to warn my friends NOT to take the shots from the shot girl, and they had to cough up money too....I've learned to try to bring at least $50 for both of us to the clubs, just in case (20 of it in singles)....live and learn, right? OK still trying to open your album... Great TR though!
Hi Florida - Yes I think that might have been the song. I didn't quite get flipped but was still funny as heck! As far as the clubs, yes we now know so won't let it happen again. Being TTR virgins, we just assumed everything was included end to end. Oh well, as that was the only crappy part of the entire week we can't complain too much
Tranny or not Fabio NEVER wore a single piece of mens clothing. In fact he readily admitts that he doesn't like mens clothes!
