My Trip to Mexico

Instead of doing the same routine for Christmas, which includes staying home for Christmas day, having a big Turkey dinner, and then flying out to Canada to go skiing the next day, my family and I decided to take a big family trip to Mexico and spend Christmas there. Not only did me, my dad, and my mom go, but all the rest of my family on my mom's side which includes 23 of my relatives went also. All 23 of them flew in from Canada and met me and my family in Mexico. Not only did we all have an awesome time, but it was a trip I will never forget.

We stayed in Mexico for a week, but those 7 days seemed way to short. We had so much fun just being able to hang out in the sun and relax. However, we didn't just sit on the beach the whole time. Some mornings, we got up around 9:00 and went to the market where we found numerous bracelets and jewelry that we were able to buy. I bought about 10 bracelets. They were all handmade with different patterns and colors on them. When we got back from the market, we would usually go swimming. There was also many activities like parasailing and water aerobics that we could do. Around 4:00, we would go back up to our hotel room to get cleaned up for dinner. Each night we picked a different restaurant to eat at with food ranging from sushi to Mexican food. Every meal was amazing. Not only was each day filled with lots of fun, but the nights were filled with many festivities as well. Each night, there would be some sort of festival that included dancing, stands selling all sorts of things ranging from jewelry to plates, and really good desserts. Overall, I had so much fun, and it was one of the best trips that I have ever been on.
