Mexico Trip 2025! (Post 1 of 2)

I FINALLY got around to sharing some photos from a trip that was nearly 2 months ago now! Here are some photos that started our trip that my folks took us on:

De-boarding on the runway in Zihuatanejo!


A dip in the pool once we got settled in: Charlie on
the left, and Henry and Ian (my nephew) on the right.


My cutie catching the last few rays of sun.


Pool/ocean views.






Selfie with Mom and Dad!


Heading up to our room before supper.


My sister and her hubby in the Mexican restaurant.


Evening view from our room.


Sunday was a lazy day around our resort. I started at the gym
(as I first noted in this post full of workouts in Mexico).


Mom, Dad, and my family at breakfast after working out.


This cutie laying around...




Dad loves the archery shooting that happens once or twice per day.


My boys in the pool.


Freshly made-up room.


Daytime views from our room.


After getting a snack at the "snack bar" (Charlie's favorite place to be from 2-4 p.m.).


The whole gang at the archery competition!


Walking down the beach - the crocs were NOT contained anymore!
(That fence in the background is NOT doing its job...)


My boys at the market down the beach.


Dave, Ian, and Sis!


My awkward selfie with my sister and Dave.


Nice photos on a night out at one of the restaurant.


Grandkids.


Sis's family!


Our family!


The entire gang!


Selfie at supper.


The kids toasting. (That's our hotel behind Bree's head.)


Sunset at the Oyster Bar restaurant is always the best!


Oysters as one of my courses.


Henry trying one.


Post-supper walk back down the boardwalk.


Finding hermit crabs by flashlight on the beach.




Henry got sick that night. This was 1 a.m. Barf was EVERYWHERE.


Charlie and Dad at breakfast on Monday.


My reading by the pool.


Tickles from Grandma by the pool.


Barf covered towels and sheets with a note (and a $20 tip).


I hung with sick Henry most of the day. These 2 enjoyed the pool!


Down at the pier.


The classic/favorite Mexican restaurant for supper.


Selfie heading back to our room.


Passed out.


All tucked in.


Tuesday (day 4) started with a swim as detailed in this post.


Breakfast with Henry, who was feeling better!


"Dad hat," shades, shorts, and loaded backpack - ready for the day!


Pool time before heading out to Ixtapa Island!


Ian on the island - he was finding a way to wear his shades under his snorkeling mask. :)


The island crew!


Ian and sis on a boat back to the mainland.


On the boat.


Ice cream at the snack bar.


Dave and Bree in the pool (Bree had gotten sick too,
which is why she wasn't on our quick island trip).


Mom and Dad at the Oyster Bar again!


My gang.


My sister's family - we were celebrating her birthday that night!!


Everyone as the sun went down!


Back by the pool after walking back from supper.

Here's a post with a 2 min video from our trip, and here's a post with workout details from the trip. Back with "part 2" pics shortly!
