I flew back into the states sometime late Friday night, tired from traveling internationally but feeling content at the sudden increase in my family size. The wedding was beautiful. Andrea and her family are so warm that I feel like I have been a part of them for years. They seemed very excited, my dad was thrilled, and I was also happy.

The rest of the vacation was very relaxing and fun, except for the fact that I couldn’t keep any food down. I didn’t drink local water, I only ate what everyone else was eating, and yet I was the only one who got sick. Thank you, overly sensitive stomach.

We had a lot of fun snorkeling in underground caves with little fish, visiting Mayan cemeteries, and being surrounded by nature and wild life the whole time.

What a nice way to spend the week.

So sorry you got sick! As an overly sensitive stomach owner myself, I can sympathize.

Gorgeous photo! Sigh.
