Have fun but be careful, man. Be weary of your water sources. There are some parts in Mexico where you should keep an eye on your 6 as well if you know what I mean. ;)

Saint...That's awesome! I've never been to Cancun, but went on a cruise in October and stayed in Cozumel for a day. This is a little something of what you can expect :) Have a great (and safe) trip! The water in Mexico is divine :D

(Sorry, the picture quality is not the best)

Right here, we were on a boat, and I was just captivated by the color of the water... I tried to get a good picture of the color. Of course, it's never as good as in real life, but this is just an idea of what you're going to witness...it's so beautiful! :D I'm telling you this right now - go snorkling!! The sealife is amazing (but hey, I'm biased...I absolutely love to snorkel!)

Just a little tip, not sure if you are aware of this or not (you probably are!) but the Mexican venders are very willing to compromise with you on prices. Sometimes they will lower the price quite significantly. When they see you're interested in something, they will bug you until you buy it! :P I realized that my mom would say, "Gosh, I love it, but it's just so much..." I would immediately turn my head to the seller and just as I thought, they would say, "Well, how about if I make a deal with you..." Of course we're women, so they would often try to flatter us into buying something. They're very persistent! It's really fun though, and they have beautiful merchandise :)

Again, hope you have a great time, and make sure to bring back lots of pics! ;)

Hmm, I haven't heard that about the salads...But why would you want a salad when you could get an enchilada with guacamole, sour cream, and rice?! :) mmm...Mexican food...

And yes, you should tip :) At least I'm pretty sure you should. Also, you might see Mariachi bands around..they come to play near your table while you eat. Make sure to tip them, of course. The music they play is beautiful :)

Thanks for all the pics and the tips! You rock!
Im going to have some nice pics Im sure of it. Me and the women are hittin up Chichen Itza (were those Mayan Ruins are). There is also a tour that takes you to this Canal were you can Kayak and then go snorkling in underwater caves. That will be nuts. Im gonna bring some Water-proof cameras so hopefully everything works out!

Have fun and let us know how many little girls along the street ask to "Braid your hair?".
My wife and I went to Cozemel 2 years ago. Every 3 steps there was a girl braiding hair for money. Cute, but got annoying after being asked 20 times! Also, Don't buy any jewelry. Most of it is cheap rip-offs and can be purchased for alot less back in the states. Also, load up on tequila and things in the duty free shops. I got a huge bottle of el ''' Tequila and a huge bottle of Kahlua plus the biggest damn candy bar I've ever seen for less than 12 bucks. Be sure to eat "Real' Mexican when you are down there. Try Tacos de pollo azado, just awsome!

Watch yourself, one night I was arrested by a rent-a-cop on the beach :cantbeli: What did I do to deserve that? not a damn thing. Jail in Mexico is very scary :lol: The most ****ed up thing about it while I was in Jail the rent-a-cop went back to the beach to arrest my friends, they gave him $20 and let them go. But what fun it was.
