With it a few days prior to Christmas, Sidney has joined me in cold Spokane. Her plane arrived at midnight last evening and she was greeted with frigid temperatures and plenty of snow. This morning we played in the winter wonderland and built a snowman. Needless to say, we aren’t in a tropical atmosphere.

Sidney and I with the snowman we made today. We named him Jose.

That doesn’t mean we aren’t thinking about such a place, however.

I am in the process of booking our honeymoon. We have decided that we want to go to Mexico for a week, preferably Cancun. Sounds like we have it narrowed down, right?

Well, to a degree, yes. But I have since encountered the reality that taking that final step and making a reservation isn’t so easy. I am completely overwhelmed with resort and package options for a Mexico vacation. I am a complete rookie and have never stepped one foot over the Mexican border in my life. While my parents have offered some guidance as they went south of the border a couple years back, I am still a little anxious about the myriad of choices out there.

Can you help? We want to stay at a beautiful, all-inclusive resort. But with the hundreds of options available with every internet search I do, I am at a loss of where to go from here. I would love input from those of you have vacationed to Mexico, especially the Cancun area, and had a wonderful experience. Any starting points you could provide me as I go more in depth with my search would be greatly appreciated.

As this is a blog post about Mexico, I don’t know what else I can say but Feliz Navidad! Have a great day and I appreciate any suggestions you can give me. Don’t Blink.
