Tracy and I just got back from a fabulous weekend in Cancun.  We decided to go mainly because Southwest is now flying non-stop from Austin.  It’s only 2 hours, I can use points, and Tracy’s companion pass worked.  We stayed at a place called Le Blanc which is part of the Palace Resorts.  The hotel was the best place either of us had ever stayed in.  The room was really modern, the food was extraordinary, and the service was incredible.  The best part is it’s all-inclusive so there is no cost for over indulging.  We ate pretty healthy and made a point to exercise every morning.  The view below is from the porch just before sunrise.

Right out the door was 10 miles of beach.  The water was warm and most of the days we had a lot of sun.

The food was incredible.  The breakfast and lunch buffets had everything you could think of from the traditional omelet station to fresh sushi.  We ate most dinners at the Japanese restaurant.  The menu was extensive and we made sure we tried everything.

We are definitely going back.
