Cancun-day 2

We got up about 7:00. We had the buffet breakfast. It was o.k. not the best but o.k. We then headed over to the Cancun Palace for our tour and upgrade speech. All the Palaces have been remodeled and are very (as Princess would say) posh. We listened to the updgrades and decided to cash in our remaining weeks and upgrade. Afterward we had lunch and headed over to check out the Beach Palace. It is interesting that they kept the name the Beach after the remodel as it no longer has a beach. It goes straight to the ocean. hmmmmm. Then we went to the market and walked around. We took the bus back to our hotel and had dinner. We ate at the Italian restaurant. Mrs Doctor said they had the best pizza so Dan ordered the pizza and agreed it was pretty good. After dinner Don and Shawna had Mexican coffee. It is made with tequila, coffee, cream, and kaluha. They set it on fire. It is quite the production and fun to watch but the best part was watching Don and Shawna's faces as they watched it being made and anticipating it. They were like a couple of kids in a candy store. Then Shawna was so happy with hers that it reminded me of a scene in the movie When Harry Met Sally. That is all I will say about that. Shawna is not feeling well. She has a sore throat, chills and just feels sick. She is taking medication and went to bed early. Hopefully she will feel better tomorrow. Tonight was Casino night so Don and I went. We played with faked chips and then they held an auction after. Don got his auction in. Yeah! You could play 21, roulette, or Texas Holdem. Don and I played Texas Holdem. I had some great hands and I won the most chips at the table. Playing in Reno really paid off. I ended up with 600 pesos and because I was the big winner I got a great used CD of show tunes and disco. I can't wait to play it and see what it really is. I wanted a red hat at the auction but our dealer said you could only have 200 pesos per voucher and could only combine two vouchers. But that wasn't true. I found that out when I was outbid. Dang. Our dealer gave me a stupid t-shirt to make up for it. I wanted the red hat. (but I am not bitter........) I am having such a great time. It is so beautiful here. Can't wait for tomorrow. We are going snorkeling, 4 wheeling and driving speed boats in the ocean. Yeehaw.
