Huatulco here I come!

I'm a little behind in my blogging, but I have a good excuse! I've been getting ready to head off to Huatulco, Mexico with my mom! We are leaving on Friday, and I can't wait. I'm having a little trouble getting my packing done. I can't decide what to take with me. I've had to buy a fair bit of new clothes to take with me as I've turned into the incredible shrinking woman since leaving bear country.

I did have the most fantastic bathing suit shopping experience ever. How many women can say that? I went into the shop thinking I'd have to spend $100 just to get one suit, as that seemed to be the going price in my travels. I found a great little outlet store and managed to pick up not one but TWO suits for a total of $55 including taxes... and the best part... they were FOUR sizes smaller than I originally started trying on. Who knew? I guess this new routine of hitting the gym after work is starting to show!

So where is Huatulco, you ask? I know, I've never heard of it before either. It's on the Pacific coast of Mexico, and doesn't seem to be quite as popular as other Mexican destinations yet. The hotel is called Las Brisas and located on one of the nine bays in that area. I'm really looking forward to learning how to snorkel! Apparently it's whale and dolphin season... so I hope I have some great pictures when I get back!

Have a great time! What's going to be your plane knitting project? You gotta have one! Makes the miles fly by!

Don't get into too much trouble with your mom :)

I'm taking the embossed leaves sock for the plane, but since it leaves at 4am I doubt I'll be knitting on the way there. Maybe the way back though!
