Our trip to Mexico, where we almost killed someone

Our anniversary trip to Cancun was really awesome. We spent four days mostly relaxing on the beach. We did take a day trip to Chichen Itza, which was really cool to see, but the goal of this trip was relaxation. We did have one scary incident. After arriving late Friday night, Papa Runner got up Saturday morning and went out onto the balcony to take pictures. Here's one:



Moments after this picture was taken, Papa's knee gently bumped against the glass front of the balcony. The bracket holding the glass in place snapped, and the glass shattered and fell. Nine stories. Onto a walkway where two men were standing. The hotel staff were great about it. They had medics on the scene within minutes. One of the men needed stitches and was taken to a local hospital. He was back and playing on the beach by that evening. We were moved to another room, and throughout the rest of the trip we could see maintenance men inspecting all the balconies. Our first room with the glass missing:




Thank God there were only minor injuries. And thank God we didn't have the kids with us. I can just picture Monkey running out to the balcony, leaning against the glass, and dropping 9 stories.

After that rough start, we really enjoyed the rest of our trip. We had massages at the hotel spa on Sunday, then the trip to Chichen Itza on Monday, and some time on a jet ski on Tuesday. The temple at Chichen Itza:



The only pics of us together are on Papa's phone, so I don't have them available to share. We really enjoyed the chance to relax and reconnect.
