Our Weekend Away in Cancun

Rich and I had the opportunity to go to Cancun at the end of February as part of a SunGard incentive trip. Thanks to Devin's incredible grandparents (both the Casadays and Valdez's), Devin stayed behind and we were able to have a vacation for just the two of us. What a treat! Thank you grandparents!!!!

Here's the view from our hotel room with the ocean beyond the cabanas.
Just a little bite to eat with an ocean view.
I've never seen such a beautiful beach and ocean.

Surf is up! It was pretty windy, so the waves were really coming in.

Rich getting ready for some zip lining. Notice the "Mayan" brake (aka tree branch) in his hand. You use that to slow yourself down while zipping by.

Here he comes!

We had an opportunity to build bikes for kids in the community. Here they are holding up the gifts they brought us. Amazing!

Here's half the bikes ready to go.

Ricardo Jose chose our bike. It was so cool that he had practically the same name as Rich (Richard Joseph). Ricardo was 8 years old. Some of the kids who came that day had never seen the beach or ocean before. What an heart-warming experience.
