Story from Acapulco

I posted some pics already, but without any story :)

I was flying there on Wed night - almost midnight, Feb 14. So it was like celebrated my Valentine's day with my girlfriends on the plane, three sum anyone? Arrived in Acapulco on Thursday morning. Checked-in our room, had lunch.....then get set for our first adventure: snorkeling. It was really fun! Love the weather, love the beach....and people were very friendly - perhaps because we always said greetings first in Spanish, plus my friend kept asking everybody's name. Man! I realized how bad my Spanish now, I should had practice my Spanish before I left.

Friday, we went to downtown - El Centro - and did some shopping for souvenirs. Went back to the Boca Chica Hotel and just laying down under the sun by the pool...what a perfect life. I went with Dinnah that night to the club, just to find put that the crowd were only some boys...really-really young, I bet they're only in early 20's.

Saturday, it's the day when I abused my body. First we rode the wave rider for 2 freaking hours! But it was hella fun! We went to the whole Acapulco bay, and went really close to the open sea. My butt was hurt badly after the riding. We closed the day by, again, swimming and tanning program, and my mistake, I didn’t put any sun block after the wave rider program, so by the end of the day I got serious sunburn. Huh! And I always told everyone, I don’t get sunburn: sunburn only for white people, not for asian. Well, I was wrong. When I told him about this, he was laughing and said: well, maybe the rule had changed for asian people who've been lived in SF for too long and don’t get the sun anymore. Sigh...my shoulder and my legs were totally hurt....I am ok now, but now I am feeling like a snake because my skin started to peel. Ouch!
later that night, we went to the club again, this time Jane was coming with us. And again, the crowd were totally freakish young boys...perhaps, 18?? Oh man! We were just laughing when we danced with them, felt like hanging out some kids. Got back to the hotel around 3am, and we just kept laughing and wandering, we met some old guys who were staying at the same hotel, really old, like...hm...50's? and we met this kids at the clubs, so where's the heck our guys??

Sunday, church time. But had no clue at all about the mass cause it was in Spanish, and seriously, our Spanish is not that amazing to understand the mass. But pretty much everything was the same with the regular mass we have here in US.
Not doing anything after Church....just did some souvenir shopping again, relax and had our last dinner.

Monday. That was it. Time to fly back home, our vacation had ended. And next time, got to remember to take direct flight on your way back home, cause we were really wasting our time by stopping by twice in Mexico City and Phoenix, AZ. And the stupid America West lost my luggage and Dinnah's. Though we got it delivered the next day and nothing was missing, it was not a good way for a closure after having so much fun.

.....Now here I am, back to the cold weather...gonna be 4 more months before I am going again for my next trip. Until then, I just have to manage to keep myself dry and warm. Plus, I am really happy to see him again....
