Weekly song!!!

Mana, has got to be one of my favourite bands out there.... I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Hubby introduced me to their music about 10 years ago. Just love listening to them.... :)

***My computer is giving me heck, so I haven't posted this week. I have lots to write about - been VERY busy***

Weekly Song!

Okay, I hope this counts as my weekly song! Just in time for the weekend...LOL!!

It's not the original lyrics of "Follow the Leader", LOL.  That song takes me back to Springbreak 2000 in Puerto Vallarta with four of my girlfriends. Oh disaster!

Anyways, I hope you like this. The video shows Acapulco - looks beautiful. Also - how good does J-Lo look? Oh my gosh is her body to die for, and her skin is amazing!!

The sign says it all!

 I think it's safe to say that things are moving along - gone are the days of the Cancun Palace!

This is the new entrance to the hotel. I think it actually will add a little flair to the Cancun Hotel Zone.

What do you think??!!

Hoping and Praying!

No, no, this post is not about the Presidential election that just took place in Mexico this past weekend!! I wouldn't dare go there.... LOL!!!

This is slightly more personal, and heck, I just want to write about it. I've made no secret to any of my friends out there that hubby and I want kids. Heck, if it were up to hubby we'd already have five (kidding!). I had told hubby for years that we should wait. What's the rush? Fast forward a few years and I'm now 31 years old, and we are still two DINK's!! (double income no kids...as my friend likes to call us).

The truth of the matter is we have been pregnant twice, and unfortunately it was not meant to be.  After that I really needed some time "off.  We started again about 7 months ago. Only this time my cycle was CRAZY. I saw my Dr in Cancun, and he decided it would be best for me to go back on the pill for four months....You know, to regulate my cycle. Who am I to argue? Anyways, I am off the pill this month, and hoping to get the green light from our Doc to start trying again!

We've been paying our seguros through hubby's work for a year now, and it is NOT cheap! In order to qualify for the type of coverage for all things pregnancy, you must be insured for a minimum of ten months.... Needless to say we are more than covered now.

I see my Dr again next week, and I'm hoping for some good news. The "go for it" news. Of course I am well aware it's not going to happen over night. I'm no spring chicken.... However, I really am just hoping for the best.... I'd like to be pregnant for Christmas of this year. You know?

I'm really trying my best not to stress out about it all...Hubby has been amazing. So has our Doctor here in Cancun, I am MORE than impressed.

Have any you out there had a similar situation? Or were you the type who blinked and it happened? LOL!!

Weekly song....

Albeit, not Spanish, but VERY popular south of the border.... )))

Cancun Realty - Boom or Bust?

So many people out there believe that owning a home in Cancun is a dream come true. For many it is, and for some not quite.... 

The Real Estate Market in Cancun is somewhat of a mystery to me. New developments are constantly under construction, people want new homes. In other areas it is not uncommon to see homes for (re)sale for years. I'm not kidding. Are they asking too much? Is the home a dump? I have no clue, and there are a LOT of them.... Ask any Cancunese. There are no shortage of homes for sale, or rent in this city. 

Hubby and I purchased land in Cancun about 5 years ago now. We haven't done anything with the property, and are waiting to see what develops around us. That part is also scary.... The last time we drove there, albeit one year ago.... It was not exactly an up and coming neighbourhood in our eyes. We have decided to hold onto it and sell it as land in the future. 

With Real Estate like this in Cancun, I have never met so many renters in my life. Hubby and I included. 

My in-laws own their home, and so does my sister in law. However, most of our friends rent. I think they all think it is just very risky to buy a home here, as who knows how long it will take to re-sell it? I hope I'm making sense..... 

Well, guess what we did? Hubby and I just purchased a small home here in Cancun, 3 bedrooms, and 2 full bath. We have no intention of living in it, and bought it strictly as a rental property. So although we live in a rental ourselves, we are now owners who rent. LOL. 

Okay, so call us crazy..... Would you ever want to get in the business of renting? 

Beauty and the Beast - Cancun Style

As many of you are well aware,  Cancun has had rain, rain and more rain.

Hubby sent me this pic, and video... I think it shows Cancuns beauty, and the beast that can be (sometimes)!! LOL!! I just told hubby that we MUST get an SUV or Truck asap....

This sweet video was taken in the Hotel Zone today...... Thanks hubby :))

This shot was provided by hubby as well, courtesy of the Beach Palace webcam; taken at 2:00 pm today JUST before the storm really hit!

What's the weather like where you are? Anything like the tropics?
