We were very excited to visit a part of Mexico that seemed less commercialized. The word "quaint" kept coming to my mind while researching it. We had a few options but ended up choosing the All-Inclusive (I'll get back to that choice later) option at Castillo Huatulco Hotel and Beach Club. This was located in the "old town" of Santa Cruz. Reviews looked good and the beach club looked awesome. I also wanted to go somewhere I have never been in Mexico before.

Las Vegas Trip Report - September 4 - 11, 2017
I've missed Sin City so much and I'm always happy when I get a chance to vacation with my son. He's 27 and I'm 52. I did try to get him to go to San Francisco this time, but he wanted Vegas instead. So, we chose the Bellagio. Luxury when I go with him, and downtown when I go by myself. That's the great thing about Vegas - each trip is a new/different experience. We chose between Bellagio, Aria, Wynn or Cosmopolitan and I got the best rates for Bellagio. It was $1600 USD all in, after taxes and inclusive of the $39 per day resort fee for 7 days. That was for two beds in a "Resort Queen Room". Staying here also let us use some "MyVegas" rewards too, so we each got $50 & $25 free plays at the Bellagio, and a dinner buffet. Any little bit helps. My favorite part of Vegas is always planning where to dine. This was no exception and I thought I could do it all with 7 days this time, but alas, there were many restaurants on my list that didn't get any love - always a reason to come back. There are also many I would have liked to repeat from past trips but didn't do because there's too much new to seek out...

Westbound Panama Canal Cruise - April 30 - May 17, 2017
I wanted to go somewhere I have never been for this trip. I got really lost in planning and couldn't choose anything - I was going in circles. I don't even remember how I ended up stumbling across this cruise, but it really fell into place for me. After a couple of months of looking, I finally decided that this was it.
