Cancun - the land of no return

You can't turn 30 and not have been to Cancun (specially if you are latin) ever.
It was part of my plan to go to Cancun someday, but I needed to get a group of people, set a date and just do it.
I missed my graduation trip from university to Cancun, because Ana Paola was only 2 months old, so impossible... another day would come.

And so it came, my boss' boss (the director of the department) called me and this other girl to his office one day and tells us "due to your performance and effort, we are rewarding you by giving you the chance to attend to a Lufthansa System's conference... in Cancun" nobody could have avoided our laughter... a conference on Cancun? what kind of masochist invented that!!?

And so, after TACANAT, I went 1 day to the office and the next day... "so long again... I will be "working" in Cancun for 4 days.

We did work... for 1 day and a half.

The day we arrived (we were 4; the director, a manager in charge of the Lufthansa system project, and the 2 of us - the funny thing is the 4 of us are still under 30) we did the classical tour... walk through the hotel zone, visit Hard rock Cafe, eat some tacos and hop from bar to bar... beer through beer, tequila after tequila, yard after yard (for the ones that don't know, a yard is a glass the size of a yard with any kind of drink inside it... mine were Long Island Ice Tea to start and Cuba Libres to end)... until we had to go to the warm up cocktail with the LH people in the hotel.

Then we had an entire day of conference... and during the night, we decided it was the night to go out and party "the Cancun way"... entered a new club called The City, they let us in for free... so fair enough... it was huge... and a great show, entertaining bar tenders, etc... we had a couple of drinks and then went walking again... out minds shifted between the idea of going to bed (it was 1 am already) and entering the hippest disco in Cancun (so it was stated by every press release I could imagine) called Cocobongo (soon to open in Las Vegas)... the cover? $35... OUCH! free drinks inside... but still sooo expensive... but we went in anyways...

The result!? completely worth it... great shows, performances, full crowd, lots of music, imitators of Michael jackson, Beetlejuice, J-Lo, The Mask... everyone... I had never seen anything like it... Vegas clubs were nothing... european tourists everywhere cute guys for the girls and small skirts for the guys... we had our night...

New York meets Vegas in a a latin way of doing parties...

after that... 5:00 am... 3 "Tacos al pastor"... one "michelada"... a $10 taxi back... 6:00 am watch the sunrise from our ocean view balcony at the hotel... and wake up at 7:30 am to attend our 9 am session.

Afterwards, the LH guys had hired a "Catamaran" boat to sail for 3 hours in the sea... we had an amazing time, saw the sunset, the moon rise, the stars in the skies, beers, margaritas, tequilas and rum... all included

No wonder why I came more tired than how I got there. Now I need to rest.

I just have 1 more thing to say:

"Suzanne, be prepared, next time I go there, it will be with you....!!!! and I won't wait that long!"
