Yesterday was a long day. My flight was delayed 7 hours. First due to snow, next they couldn’t find us a plane, and finally we had to sit on the tarmac for 3 hours because they did not have enough meals to serve to the people in business class. This was all exaggerated by the fact that Liz and I did not sleep the night before because we were out late on a boat party. But after much irritation, we made it.
I am currently relaxing in Ixtapan, Mexico at Hotel Spa Ixtapan – an all inclusive spa located in the mountains about 1.5 hours south of Mexico City.
I know a lot of you will hate me after you read how I have been spending my day… so if you will get too upset, I understand and you are welcome to stop reading here.
After a lovely breakfast filled with fresh fruits and fresh squeezed juices, my crew and I enjoyed relaxing Kundulini yoga in the beautiful yoga hut. Here is a picture to give you an idea. Tomorrow I will try to take some photos inside so you can see how zen it really is.Next we relaxed by the pool in the lovely 80 degree weather before enjoying a session of underwater zoomba (you read that right, underwater). It was ridiculously fun. The pool (seen above) is adorned with a lovely fountain to add to the ambiance.
I followed that up with a quick dip in the hot tub before being served lunch on the most darling pavilion overlooking the pool.
Can you even imagine a nicer place to eat lunch?
Then I took my afternoon nap. And now I am lounging in my robe before my daily massage at 5:00 begins and writing to let you all know that you can stop worrying about me for a bit. I am doing fine and being pampered in paradise. Oh and did I mention that after my massage I will be receiving a facial and reflexology?
Here are a few more pictures I took today from around the spa. The first two are the view from my hotel room.
Hope to hear from you all soon!
Rachel,
Glad to know you are having a relaxing time at the spa after the aggravation you suffered in getting there.
