That is Unacceptable ~ Get us to Cancun!!! :)

It all started on Saturday morning when we were supposed to leave for Cancun on a 6:30am flight and arrive in Mexico about 12:30 (key word...supposed to).  Daniel and I had our alarm set for 4:00 am and were SO excited! It felt like Christmas Eve when you can't sleep cause you are so anxious. I was getting ready in the other room when my cell phone rang at about 4:15 and Daniel answered. I thought to myself, "who in the world is calling this early?" and when I looked at Daniel's face... I knew something was wrong. Turned out... our flight got all kinds of re-routed and we were not going to get to Cancun til possibly 7:30 that night??!! Of course I was devastated, but held it together.  When we arrived at the airport Daniel went to the counter to speak with someone to try to fix this... she explained to him what happened and told him there was really nothing she could do about it. He looked at her... firmly but not mean... and said, "This is unacceptable, figure something out" .... and she did! :) We got on a 6:15 flight to Detroit, then only had a short layover til we flew straight to Cancun and arrived around 1:00! Daniel got it done and I was so proud of him! From there...the next 6 days were paradise and we had an amazing trip with amazing friends!  **I apologize in advance for the amount of pictures :)

We stayed at the Excellence Riviera Cancun... and I would highly recommend it!
