I have acquaintances that just about live on a cruise ship all winter. What a way to go I suppose.. Although all that food and the salt in it would do me in.
My daughter and her husband just booked a week in Isla Mujeres off the coast of Cancun for a week in Feb. It is giving me a great urge to go back. $400.00 dollars for the week and cheap air-only fares. Nothing but white sand, pure turquoise 83 degree water, and golf carts to get around in. I am dreaming, wildly.
I love that area, and can still feel it in my blood. Wish I could get cheap airfare in FL.. It costs twice as much as from Boston.. *^&%$#..
I am going to keep it in mind tho.. ;)

This is the little shack on the beach that they're renting.
That will give them something to look forward to all summer and fall.
Interesting...my niece and her two boys just returned from somewhere near there that featured sleeping quarters up in the trees, if you chose, or simple cabins with thatch roofs. Now she's all geeked about dropping out of school and moving down there "for a year."
We all hope she gets back on her meds, soon.
