Starting our planning early
Faith and I had such an amazing time in Thailand experiencing so many new things. We are already starting to plan our next getaway and trying to figure out where in the world we are going to go. This time we are going to be bringing our kids with us, so we are going to want to go somewhere that will be fun for teenagers as well.
The main thing that we want in a vacation spot is a nice beach that we can go swimming in each day. I would like to take the family out snorkeling and possible do some diving as well. We have been looking at Costa Rica or the Cozumel/Cancun area as possible destination spots mainly because they are pretty close and the flights aren't too expensive.
We also would like to be able to do some of the different wildlife excursions or site-seeing near the resort as well. Cozumel and Cancun have some pretty amazing ruins to see, but Costa Rica has the wildlife that we really want to see, like sloths. My daughter is obsessed with sloths, plus I wouldn't mind getting to hold a baby sloth too, because they are adorable.
I did find a place called the Hotel Xcaret Mexica that seems like it might be the place we will stay at if we do visit Mexico. It is a bit pricy, but with everything included, it may end up being cheaper than trying to pay for food, excursions and everything else at all the other places.
We are going to continue to plan things, but if anyone has any other recommendations, let me know. We don't really want to spend too much time on airplanes during this trip, so flying back to Asia is not going to work. We only have about a week for this one and we can't spend about 3 days of it just in the air. Thanks for stopping by and for any recommendations.
