Coco Loco

Hello friends! We are back home, a bit weary from the 22-hour travel day returning from Mexico (long layover plus weather delays) but we had a truly amazing vacation. I have 654 photos to sift through, process and organize so it's going to take a bit of time.  Words cannot really express how wonderful it was to spend so much time with old friends, and I made some awesome new friends too. Amy and Sean's wedding was beautiful! They definitely chose a little bit of paradise to start their marriage.

My Coco Loco


We made great friends with the bartenders (Alfredo and Lorena) at the swim-up bar in the resort's pool.  Pina coladas were my drink of choice for most of the trip and when I told Alfredo that I was a bit crazy for coconut, he offered to make me a Coco Loco. It took him 30 minutes to make it! He took a fresh coconut, shook out the juice and then mixed it with Malibu rum, coconut milk and I don't remember what else, then poured it back inside the coconut.

It was TOTALLY AWESOME.

I want to say MUCHAS GRACIAS to my guest bloggers Erin, Jacqueline, Katie, Jamie and Elaine! I really appreciate you all for keeping Sweet Eventide company while I was away!

As for me, I will keep working on my images and of course, I'll share them with you as much as possible. Some are being saved for certain people's wedding present (they know they are receiving an Apple photo book from me so I can say that here).


P.S. My favorite Spanish phrase that I learned in Mexico was "Mucho gusto!" It is just about the most fun thing to say out loud. :)
