Punta Cana Part Dos

We all got in our groove the last part of our Thanksgiving trip.  Mom got in her sunrises, sunsets, and full moon risings. Pop got in the pool, we took in shows and enjoyed the island life. We had amazing weather and we were all very happy with our resort choice - reserve was the way to go - nice, big rooms, kids zone care included, and less people at the restaurant, the pool, and our exclusive part of the beach. 

Wednesday was family pictures and dinner at Ventó for the adults and older kids. Thursday, Jaima and I took a sushi making tips session with Mom and Dad before we all ate “Thanksgiving lunch” at the beach buffet. Then the entire family went to the beach with some napping and some playing in the waves. The older boys did paint ball in the mangroves while the younger boys enjoyed kids zone and adults had happy hour at the pool. We ate at Bana for our family and the Geisert family and then took in the Lion King show. It was cheesy, but it was fun to see staff from the day in the performance. We played cards in the lobby which was fun and something all ages can do. 

On Friday (which also happened to be our niece’s birthday), we booked a snorkeling and natural pool boat trip which was the highlight for many and also fun that we could all do it together. We wrapped up the last day at the pool and dinner over at The Grille and then a Cirque type show on the beach under a full moon. Some exploding kittens in the bar wrapped up the day - and here we are - sittting in the plane in Punta Cana waiting for maintenance. Real life is here.😉
