Akumal, Mexico

 Four years later...dusting this thing off! I decided to start making this more of a place to journal for the kids! We've had lots of fun adventures in these 4 years but I'm just going to start fresh!

For spring break this year we took a trip to Akumal, Mexico! We wanted somewhere different that we haven't been and found the perfect villa in Akumal! 

On our travel day(Saturday) we flew from Atlanta to Mexico City then to Tulum. The Tulum airport is brand new, just opened in December! It was super nice! There was confusion in the airport about our rental van but we got it all worked out and were on our way to Akumal. 

We arrived to the villa around 6pm after a super long travel day. We ate dinner and the kids hopped in the pool! The pool was super fun because you could swim from outside the villa to inside the villa! Only thing is..at night raccoons would also swim inside and get into everything in the kitchen!

On Sunday we hung out around the villa and relaxed. Then on Monday, we snorkeled with the sea turtles! Some of us enjoyed this alot....and some of us thought we were dying! haha! 

Tuesday was spent relaxing at the villa again-we tried to build these days in on purpose! On Wednesday we went to the Akumal Monkey Sanctuary! This was so much fun! We spent time with lots of different animals, and obviously the monkeys! We were also able to swim in a cenote there!

On Thursday we drove up to Playa del Carmen and hopped on a ferry boat to Cozumel! We spent the day at Paradise Beach. The kids had lots of fun and Josh and I decided cruising is not for us! haha! 

Friday was spent relaxing and getting ready for our trip home the next day! Such a fun trip! I'm so thankful we get to travel together so much!!

A few pictures from our trip!
