    When we were there, only a few of the women actually had their tops on at the pool. The majority were topless.

    I'd recommend Cipro if you can get it "Need a Script" and Pepto-Bismol, just for safety's sake. We only had one prob out of the last 4 trips, but you can never be prepared enough.
    In our crew (April Addicts), most of us used 20 oz. Bubba Mugs. Ibuprophen to take before U go to bed (a couple of them will kick a hangovers ass).
    Most girls might not start out topless, but be rest assured they prob will be within a couple of hours/days! :icon_wink:
    Just remember, Nobody Knows You and Nobody Gives a Shit!!
    You'll prob make future lifelong friends there too and perhaps end up being repeaters like most of us!
    Enjoy!

    There are a couple of lists..(probably many more) that have been generated over the years.. Maybe we need to start a sticky or something...

    Anyway here are a couple for reference...

    http://www.cancuncare.com/forum/Temptation-resort-cancun/16924-what-bring.html

    http://www.cancuncare.com/forum/Temptation-resort-cancun/15106-must-haves-bring-cancun.html

    In addition to the stuff listed previously, people over the years have included things like:

    6' extension cords because the plugs are never where you need them
    scented candles in case your room has the tropical musty smell
    a small first aid kit because you will always scrape something somewhere
    sunburn ointment - self explanatory
    ear plugs cause someone will always be drunk at 3 AM and they ALWAYS find the hall outside your door

    Oh.. and for him.. a tee-shirt that says "I'm just back from the Sandbox!" People will notice and appreciate his, and your, service!

    I put together a spreadsheet with a list of items to bring with a lot of help from the posts here and what Jamie linked to, a high level schedule, what theme nights fall on which days and when we need to leave for the airport because you will have so much fun, you will forget what day it is....

    This list helped to ensure I didn't over pack (still did a little bit), but also helped making sure I had everything I needed. When it came time to packing, I printed it off and just crossed items off as I put them in the suitcase.

    I can share it if you want, just shoot me a PM.

    Orange wristbands to recognise CancunCare members, we found so many friends wearing them last year.
    Plenty of sunscreen as we found out it's twice the price if you run out in Mexico, even at Wallmart prices.
    Hangover cures - plenty!

    Oh, Im not shy lol
    I did travel medicine (prepping international travelers for trips) for a few years, so the cipro is packed. Im excited.

    Dark Beer for tanning? Ive never heard of this?

    We are already signed up for the Boobs Cruise and will be doing at least one full day tour (Tulum) and probably gonna dive or check out the cenotes. I didnt want to plan too much and be pissed that we had to leave the resort lol

    Im not exactly in teeny bikini shape.. next time lol I have a few normal suits tho... and youre right. Cold bathing suits are never fun!

    I was a little worried about the water temps this time of year. Im kinda a wuss. Are the pools warm enough Dec/Jan?

    This is what's so great about TTR. Nobody knows you and nobody gives a shit. You will see all different body types and most of the people will be showing it off :bootyshake: You shouldn't ever feel like your bikini is too small or your top should be on (at least after you have had a few drinks). Have fun and enjoy yourself!!!
