    2016 – Gal Pal Road Trip

    Carrying on with the incredible travel year that was 2016:

    After hubs and I returned from the all-expenses paid vacay to the Mayan Riviera, things calmed down for a couple of months, and then I headed out on a road trip to Salt Lake City with two long time friends who had joined my MLM team.

    The purpose of the trip was to attend the annual conference of the MLM company I had signed up with.

    In addition to being a learning and team-building experience in SLC, the road trip itself both to and from the conference was fun and interesting.

    Even though none of us belonged to the Mormon faith, Temple Square in Salt Lake City provides a great history lesson about the settlement of the state of Utah.

    My dear friend, Lenna passed suddenly and unexpectedly just four years after this trip.

    I’m so happy I have this trip in photos and in memories.

    2016 – Home for a Bit and then Off Again!

    Before we left Arizona in mid February of 2016, I learned that through a MLM company I had joined just prior to my retirement from nursing, I had earned an all expenses paid trip for two to The Hard Rock Resort, Mayan Riviera, Mexico. The trip was to take place in mid March.

    Absolutely everything was paid for from flights, to airport transportation, to the all-inclusive resort, and to side tours from there. The only time we had to use our wallets was to tip someone.

    Hubs and I had time to unpack, do laundry, and repack for the next trip.

    It was a whirlwind defined, and we loved every single second.

    My feature photo is of our hotel lobby.

    Mid March at the Mayan Riviera was hot and so humid that my camera lens kept fogging up, but that was truly the only issue. Everything else was perfect.

    Our last day was extended because we didn’t fly out until 9pm – we had zero complaints about that
