Cancun

So I have been back for weeks and I am just posting pictures. I am such a slacker but we have been really busy. Summer is not the relaxing vacation that I remember. We had an amazing time.

We went on an LDS tour of Chichen Itza, Ek Balam and Tulum. We had the best tour guide. Her name is Ruth Davila and I highly recommend her. Her mom was from Bountiful and she went to East High so she speaks amazing English, but her dad was a tour guide in Mexico and she grew up at these ruins so she has great insight. It was amazing to hear her testimony and stories of the saints in Mexico. We spent two full days with her and it was my favorite part of the trip just listening to her and all the knowledge she possesses. It was definitely a testimony building experience. She said so many things that have stuck with me that had nothing to do with the Mayans but just great insight on life. She is coming to Utah to visit this summer and we are going to try to hang out and listen to her some more. She is that good.

We also did a zip line course at Selvatica. It was so much fun. It was run really well and they had the cutest boys that helped you all along the way. We even got to go upside down and do "superman" with them. Even mom and dad went upside down. After the zip lines they take you swimming in a cenote and then serve you dinner. I would definately do it again.

We visited Isla Mujares for a day and had a great time riding around and snorkeling with our guide Don Miguel. He even took us to a place where you could hold a shark if you paid this guy a dollar. We had to do that just for London. It was surprisingly heavy.

The rest of the time we just laid on the beach or hung out by the pool. We did have a couple of adventures including a crazy bus ride to Wal-Mart and a night where the power went out in our hotel while we were at dinner, but those are things that make your trip memorable. Thanks mom and dad!! It was amazing!
