Cancun Mexico (Day 1) - Sun Palace

This was a Thanksgiving trip as well. But this year we go beyond US, we flew to Mexico. Sounds cool right? I was so excited about this trip and prepared everything in advanced. I didn't need to worry about my Visa because Im a PR here. However, Xu needs to get his i20 signed even thou he holds the international student visa (Tourists with US visa do not need a Mexico visa). I20 proves that he is still s student in the US.

We booked our air ticket and hotel together as usual. It will be cheaper to take this package instead of buying the air ticket separately. So this time, Expedia.com had a better deal than Priceline.com, we chose a very special hotel, guess what? It is a 'Only Couple' hotel and with All-Inclusive package. This is also the first time I heard about All-Inclusive hotel. All inclusive means that all the food we eat in the hotel is free, even alcohol!
 Upon checked-in, a flower was given from a bell man to welcome us. Also, we were being served a cup of drink as refreshment. Such a warm welcome to the guests! Very impressing. However, we reached an hour early prior to the check-in time, so we were allowed to use the hotel facilities while waiting for our room.
We had this wristband on so that the staff know that we were involve in All-Inclusive package. 

This was the first sea view I saw in Cancun! The sea was so 'big', really, no words can describe this amazing view. Look at the color layers, dark blue-blue-green-light green..Immediately fell in love with this Carribean Sea. 

 Fruits and wide varieties of dessert. I totally recommend to take all-inclusive package, we can eat anytime without worrying our budget! Really worth the price! Of course, you need to book the ticket in advanced.


 Ta-da, this is our lovely room! Yes! There was a bathtub in our room, next to the bed, double jetted somemore (couple bathtub).


This was really cool! Love it so much. Xu promised to build one in our future home. Hehe
 Free whole bottle of red wine in room.
And the GSA had complimentary upgraded our Deluxe room to Junior Suite Room with Ocean view. Lucky us! So excited on the first day and can't wait to explore the hotel. 



Free top up anything anytime!
First time see a hotel provide straighten hair tong in room. Very convenient to the ladies.

Order our first room service. 24-hour room service!
Pool-side dinner. I look so meaty. LOL

Salmon and white wine. So worth it right? One big salmon for free! hahaha. I know I already paid for everything but I still love to use the word 'free'.
Two meaty human. Haha
