STELLA'S ROAR: Mexico Time...Where We've Been

The joys of packing...The Main Man makes fun of me because I take it so seriously. He took a video of me packing, but there are several curse words involved. Obviously the closet makeover has not happened yet...

Our room at The Tides in Zihuatanejo! Outdoor living room with a plunge pool...

Bedroom...only a/c

The view from the room...

Outdoor hanging beds under palapas...

Things that make me go "MMmmm"...

The outdoor bathroom...even the water closet was outdoors...I'm blind as a bat so this is typical makeup application...

One of the outdoor bars...

Hobbit castle in the distance...

Dinner on the beach...which we did every night...

Tiniest hermit crab evah!

Very cool light fixture in the main dining room...

Drinks at one of the bars...

We stayed on these suspended swinging beds for 4 days in a row.

Great views...

Seafood everyday...trying not to let the Slimfast Bikini Diet be for nothing...I stuck with seafood and switched from champagne cocktails to vodka and soda with a splash of campari...which The Main Man says tastes like poison.

View from the bed...preparing the table for lunch...

The flora and fauna were amazing...We'd like to try The Tides Riviera Maya next.

The Townhouselady said...: Frankly, I don't know if I'd rather vacation in Mexico or in that closet full of gorgeous clothes, and jewels.

Really though, that resort is gorgeous. I love the outdoor bathroom. Looks so peaceful and not overrun with people.

Paradise. I just love Mexico.; June 15, 2009 at 9:05 AM
Lucinda said...: Uh yeah, I used to like you but after this post I must reconsider. Seeing your closet and then your vacation makes me green with envy, lucky biotch! On a more serious note, I am going to Puerto Moreles in less than a month and I hope it is as beautiful as that place. Love the make-up application too.; June 15, 2009 at 11:37 AM
