Our family embarked on a journey with the Armstrongs, Palahickys, and Whitmires from Merriman Park Elementary as we ventured to the stunning shores of Cancun, Tulum, and Isla Mujeres for an unforgettable Spring Break getaway.

Highlights of our trip included adrenaline-pumping excursions like diving 16 feet into a cenote and exploring the ancient ruins of Tulum, as well as indulging in relaxing beachside massages. We loved our stay at the Royalton Riviera Cancun that provided luxury and comfort amidst breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea.

Our favorite dining spots ranged from authentic Mexican taco joints during excursions to the serene ambiance of Zen at the resort.

For those considering a similar trip, we recommend utilizing a travel agent for seamless planning, especially when traveling with a large group. Sarah Nickell Franks, a trusted travel agent and a fellow Merriman Park, Forest Meadow, and LHHS alum, helped orchestrate our adventure.

As for future travel plans, we are looking forward as a group to explore Puerto Rico with Sarah's guidance, as well as enjoying family time in Dauphin Island and embarking on Hill Country weekend getaways.
