got back last night-- finally getting things back in order around home. we did enjoy the trip even though the resort was running about 22 percent. still some good things around the resort but a LOT MILDER than our previous trips. the entainment staff is a little weak but they are trying. hard to fill the shoes of lalo and chino. mario is still the leader and is very good. was told about 10 major resorts are closed due to the piggy flu factor, our opinion its the flu crap is blown way out of portion and mainly a media bull***t factor. it has hurt cancun. all the resorts are going to a single club each night and even then the clubs are not even near full. still fun times, daddy o's was sunday, daddy rock was monday, the city was tues and a problem( was a beach club style-ladies high heals do not work very well in the sand. wasted $80), basics on wed. its an ok club. we missed our favorite clubs senior frogs & bulldog cafe. we made sure to tip at a higher rate than normal, especially at the resort. hopefully the business will pick up fairly quick, these people are really hurting. we always do some business at the flea market just down from the resort. talk about a happy guy to see some customers. sent several other guests who have harleys over there for $8 t-shirts. also we packed 4 big bottles of crown in our carry-on. were told 2 per person. were not told to pack only 2 per carry on. almost missed the plane in dallas due to having to re-check the carry-on. then american airlines lost about 9 passengers luggage when we arrived in little rock. stood around about an hour waiting in line & filling the missing luggage reports. got lucky though- this delayed us until the next plane from dallas arrived. got the missing luggage and no broken crown--until we got home. rick and sherri
It's gotten better 64% today, almost looks like normal! Guess that means we gotta get up earlier to get a chair! Terry
Sounds like you had fun even tho the low numbers! Cant wait until Sept!. Have they moved The City outside? We have been and it has been a blast! Would like to go again and love my high heels but dont want to tromp in sand! Kat
the city do to the low numbers the city held their "bar night" on the outside "beach bar" deck area. we were expecting to be inside- have been here several times and always enjoyed it. also so ran with the cancuncare crowd several of the couple we have met before on prior trips. even with the low numbers still plenty of "eye candy" at the pool and afterhours.
