First Day at Live Aqua, Cancun

Hello again gorgeous!

We arrived in Cancun in the morning and checked in at Live Aqua Hotel around noon. We relaxed a bit after being on the plane and threw on bathing suits. The plane ride wasn’t long since we had to connect in Mexico City but it was rough. The hotel serves buffet style lunch at the pool so the girls headed there for some almuerzo.

Photo credit goes to my sister Laura. Honestly I really looked passed the hotel pool onto the blue beach of Cancun which is why it slipped my mind to take a picture. I think I spent more time in the ocean than I did in Live Aqua pools. It wasn’t that the infinity pool, the swim up bar or the Jacuzzi wasn’t nice, it’s just that the warm ocean water was RIGHT THERE!

Photographer: Live Aqua Pro

There was a professional, on-site, photographer roaming around the hotel and he helped us take a few pictures of the birthday girl’s (orange bikini) crew. We also did a photo shoot with the same photographer the next day. Here, I just wore a simple coral top and black cheeky bottoms.

I saw this little guy while having lunch near the pools. There were so many hanging around. I wish I could have picked them up but the staff advised against it. Now that I’m thinking about it, I really should have just picked them up! A bite or two wouldn’t kill me. 🙂

After visiting the pools we went to dinner at Siete located in the hotel. It was SO delicious. We had reservations but it is an open buffet style restaurant. While having our served dinner, most of us went to the buffet and picked up a lot of hor d’oeuvres and dessert. The photo above is the beef dish with squash puree and potato and it was cooked to perfection. The puree was a wonderful addition to the beef, the potato was very flavorful and the beef was super soft.  Of course I was so stuffed from the other food I couldn’t finish it. It was a waste because it was very delicious.

We all headed back to our rooms and retired pretty early that night. A few of us girls were to prepare for Fly-board the next day. We also rented out some Jet Skis. Those will be shown next time. 🙂

Until next entry!!!!

Traveling to Cancun!

Hi there beautiful!

I’d like to share with you my time during travel. I left to Cancun on a Wednesday night and arrived to Cancun the next morning. I traveled with a good group of ladies and we had a connecting flight in Mexico City. It was a rough flight since it was during the night and I didn’t get a great amount of sleep.

I know I haven’t posted anything for a bit but here I am back from Cancun and ready to update you on my trip with the girls. I thought I could have done some work out there but we were all so busy and had very little sleep since we had so much to do! I have a lot of footage to go through but my video is currently in the works! I will link it in another post! I can’t wait to share it with you!

 I took this photo right before landing in Cancun. We had a stop at Mexico City. The water was much more blue than is shown in the photo; it was gorgeous.

Cancun Travel Outfit

I didn’t wear much make up, but I did add on some tinted moisturizer, brows and mascara.

This is more or less what I like to travel in. When I am travelling to a warmer area during a warmer time, I like to layer a light coat (Forever 21) on a light sweater (JC Penney)  with some tank top. I am wearing Forever 21 sunglasses. Usually, I wear cheaper sunglasses when I know I’ll be doing many activities. Tights are all I wear no matter the occasion. I love leisure tights, work out tights, and all other types of tights. I wore my Calvin Klein Capri tights because I knew it’d be warm when I got to Cancun. I like to wear shoes that are easy to remove going through TSA check. Check out the TSA Travel Checklist and some tips.

I don’t like waiting in line and definitely don’t like a long fuss going through one. I have a carry on sized Delsey ( don’t miss the sale!) luggage with my camera bag and my purse as my personal item.

Traveling to Cancun

There were about 10 other women traveling with me. I am posing here with my rock star aunt.

The following posts will be a walk through of what I did and wore in the 4 days I stayed in Cancun.
