Here’s a peek at the past few days!  It’s been fun, filling (food and otherwise) and fuming hot…as in 90 and humid!  Not complaining, it’s the best ever.

Our first evening, we were taken to dine and watch Acapulco’s famous cliff divers.  It was pretty incredible.  To put it in perspective, jumps were made from 135 ft (at the highest point), into a 22 ft wide gap, into water about 13 ft deep!  The highly trained divers watched the movement of the water, so that they hit it when the depth was the greatest.  Simply awesome.  Look at this duo – totally in sync.

 

On Thursday morning, we participated in the “Ball n Chain 5K”!  For the running enthusiast bride (Emily) and groom (Ryan), this was absolutely perfect in every way!  Kurtis and I were glad to run…Kurtis hauled his camera and bag the whole way.  Now that’s dedication.

Here’s Mike (Emily’s dad), race director, who planned the route and took his GPS to verify the distance.  The instructions were basically this – when you see the pink bucket in the sand, that’s the 1 mile marker.  Go further until you see the liter bottle with the blue flag and round it!  Can you imagine a better run than this?

Post rehearsal and turkey dinner, several enjoyed Cuban cigars!  Here’s Ryan:

Now for a peek of the married couple.  Kurtis ran down this atv for lighting – BRILLIANT!

This was one heck of a party.

Flippin’ awesome.

We bring more than just photography skills.  Kurtis provided late night juggling entertainment with fruits!

Can’t wait to show you more.  Hasta luego!
