    What price point am I looking at for scuba diving. What are the dive sites like in late may. Am I better off. Taking my own gear. With me. BC. Regs dive computer etc.

    She doesn't dive. And. Would also like advice for her and snorkelling I know she would. Love to see a dolphin in the wild.

    What is the crowed and age group like in late may. I am 32 she is 28

    How far from the resort is a Walmart or place to get a few bottles of wine or champagne for are anniversary when we are down . As I have been reading. The house wine sucks and they rape you for a bottle on the actual value.

    The lobster dinners they have. What type of lobster is it. I assume it's not Maine. But is it. Caribbean. Or. Spiny lobster where you just eat the tail.

    Def planning to do the boob cruise while we are there. And. Chitanitza (spelling)

    What else is worth while to check out. I haven't been down since spring break years ago lol


    Thanks for the time and. Answers in advance. :beer4:

    If you do the Boobs Cruise and Chichen Itza that is two days off resort. Absolutely don't miss the cruise. Chichen Itza is a VERY LONG HOT day. I would think even more so in May? We have been and sooo glad we did it. It was amazing, unbelievable really. Make sure you have some good shoes a hat wouldn't hurt and take some bottled water. Other suggestions? Don't take anymore daytime trips off the resort, you'll miss all the fun. If you like nightlife CoCoBongo is a must! Go with the entertainment staff. Not sure what night they go.

    Guess we will check stores out next door first for wine. And try to save a trip to walmart

    Your right age is just a number. Just also nice to have some people are own age as well so we don't feel like the odd ones out and tried of going away and people complaining to turn down radio in afternoon.at the pool since most resorts don't have music Or. Everyone going to bed at 10


    Ya I hiked the golan Hights. And hiked up and down Masada. Both are in Israel in mid August. So I know what To expect when we do Chichen Itza Plus after how cold toronto has been. Bring on the heat lol.

    Have to look into coco bongos Thanks for that tip

    Chichen Itza is a very cool place, went last year in March. It is a full day. We left at 730 in the morning and didn't get back till 930 or later, maybe 10. It was great but at the same time, I didn't realize it was a full day. Kinda exhausting, the ride back anyways

    do you know the price difference between a cab and USA Transfers ?
    (with booze stop , of course)
    I hate the wait for shuttle transfers , and have taken cabs most every year.

    They only have airport approved cabs at the airport and they are very expensive.

    USA comes in cheaper.

    55 return.

    I saw 20 for a stop at Walmart,, don't think they would charge for a quick wine stop
