Amazing Acapulco

We began the trip upon our arrival with a small trip to Walmart to grab some beach necessities that we lacked. Afterwards we spent our whole first day on the beach taking in the sun and relaxing. That first night we stayed long enough to watch the sunset from the beach all while sipping margeritas. Afterwards we packed up and headed back to our hotel in hopes of getting dressed and ready to go out dancing that evening but unfortunately we all fell asleep.

The next morning we woke up early and made our way to an old fortress located high up in Acapulco. After we explored the history of Acapulco we ate some lunch and then too a boat ride that lasted over an hour (after we'd been told would only last 45 minutes) to go over to an island. During the journey on the boat ride in which we watched a young boy perform a cliff diving act, a man in a speedo swim underneath the boat with sea urchins, and saw a statue at the bottom of the water we made it to the island with little time to spend enjoying ourselves there. On the island we found a more secluded area of the beach where we were able to do our own version of snorkling and watch the little fishies scatter about. After a while it was time to catch the last boat back to the mainland and that night we made it out to the club going to a place called Paradaise and paying 200 pesos for open bar till 4 am. It was there I met a guy named Erick and spent the night hanging out with and dancing until somewhere around 4 we decided to go and get churros. Finding the churro place closed we went instead to a taco place before parting ways with the boys and heading back to the hotel to sleep in until noon.

Once we were up and funcitoning we decided to spend the day at the beach once more where we went jet skiing, and built a sand castle. After our fun in the sun we went back to the hotel and got ready to go to a place called Senor Frogs where I enoyed my first mojito and wound up meeting with the guys from the club the night before. After a few drinks we decided to ditch senor frogs and go grab some drinks and chill on the beach outside the club we'd gone to the night before. And all of us chilled around on the beach splashing around the tide until Erick asked me to take a walk with him down the beach and of course I went with him. And as we walked along the beach chatting about life, ourselves, and everything in between. It was when we passed by another bar that a slow song came on and I could swear to myself that the film had to be rolling or the credits were going to pop up any minute as things turned into a scene straight out of a romance movie. And the two of us danced to the distant music. And as you would expect from any classic romance movie, as the song came to and end he leaned and we shared a very sweet kiss. Afterwards he dropped us all off back at our hotel, leaving me with a good night kiss.

And the next day was supposed to be our return to Puebla, as we woke up early to go to the bus station to head home on the 10:30 bus only to find out that the bus was already full. So we bought tickets for the next bus available being the 4:30 and decided not to waste the extra time given to us and made our way back to the beach, texting the boys to see if they wanted to hang out with us until we had to leave. I never received a response but was pleasently surprised when about two hours later he signaled his arrival with a kiss on the cheek. We spent the rest of the time lounging around and chatting before it was finally time to return and make our way back to little old Puebla.
