Cancun Crazy

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>After the recent tragedy in our life, we were all ready to relax and rest for a while, away from the daily hustle and bustle of life.<br /><br />We actually planned this vacation way back when since we knew the kids would be on Spring break, but with what happened to our family 2 months ago, this trip couldn't have come at a better time...<br /><br />It was our first time in Cancun and we didn't honestly know what to expect. We knew there would be a gorgeous beach for sure, a nice hotel, but the rest, we decided to find out as soon as we got there.<br /><br />Nio was right, Cancun was a genuine<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;"> TOURIST TRAP ( in a good way)</span></b>!
