Grand Oasis Caribbean Resort Cancun

Ve woke up fresh and clean around 07-08, and now the jetlag has completely gone.<br>At around 13.00 we decided to go out and try to see the beach before it was too late, despite the light rain. once we get on the bus to the hotel zone where the beach is, the rain became more and more ferocious! We ended up walking around the bar area, competing on a machine where you slam a club ...

We landed in Cancun after apr. 15 hours of traveling. Martin had beforehand done some research and found a hostel for us. We took a van from tha airport there. <br><br>After checking in, eating and finding a much needed laundry shop, we fell asleep like ...

... with the driver in a heavily accented Spanish but didn't miss any opportunity to eavesdrop to our conversation and burst in to give motherly tips). Three frat boys sat behind us and reminisced about their past extravaganzas in Cancun. We arrived in our grand hotel around 8:30pm. We marvelled at our spacious, chic room. Yay! Finally! Wanting to grab some food and drinks, we dressed up semi-fancy and asked the consierge ...

... I definitely want to go back. As soon as I stepped off the plane in Mexico I knew I was going be happy doing this trip. I love Mexico, I'll always love Mexico, AND we get to come here with Up With People. I don't know which parts we'll be in, but I'm already excited about my return. I am here, ready to go, new group, new day, new adventure. It will get hairy in the next couple of weeks ...

So despite our animosity for Cancun, we headed back to explore a possible side trip to Cuba. We ended up being convinced by fellow travelers that Air Cubana wasn't worth the money savings, and were eventually put off the trip overall (only days before Castro resigned - oops!) We did very much enjoy staying at Las Palmas, though. It's near the bus station, and Theresa, the owner, made us feel very at home. At day trip to Isla Mujeres got us out of the noise and pollution for a bit as well.

... fra havet. Landtangen har vel en udstrækning på ca. tredive kilometer og er fuldstændig plastret til med enorme hoteller og resorts. Mexicanerne elsker dette sted. Der er bare det ved det, at kommer du som almindelig plebejer - turist og gerne vil på stranden, så kan det faktisk ikke lade sig gøre !!! - ikke sådan helt regulært i hvert fald.<br>Selv tog jeg en bus ud til Punta Cancun - Det nordøstlige hjørne. - For ...

... of dry ice...nice! Anyway the night carried on like that until it was time to go. The next day we didn't get up too early as none of us had gotten to bed until around 6am. James and I went back to where Coco Bongo was during the daytime and it was a complete ghost town. Cancun is only for the nighttime goers! I'm really glad we stopped off at Cancun. So long as you take the place with a pinch of salt, you'll have a really good time!

... To me, this condescending and demanding statement seems like a preamble to the hard-headed, unilateral foreign policies of the US government of the last 5 years. Surely the US does not extend these requests to nationals of other countries. So what makes us so special? Oh, I forgot. We are Americans. Ironically, the only time during my world travels when I have been delayed or hindered at a border, issued threatening statements, asked intimidating questions and been subjected to ...
