For Spring Break, we decided to fly to Cancun, Mexico. My husband originally wanted to  go to an all-inclusive resort. I checked the prices and they seemed really high (spoiler alert: many all-inclusive resorts in Cancun end up being reasonably priced due to the high cost of food in the Cancun touristy area).  I started trying to figure out an option that was better for the budget AND included seeing Chichen Itza without spending hours upon hours in a bus. We decided to take a road trip Yucatan, which included spending a lot of time in Tulum.

Let’s check out some great Yucatan road trip itineraries!

“You should see the baby sea turtles while you visit Ixtapa. It was on my bucket list and it was the first thing we did when we got there,” my friend gushed.

After she told me the price, I was deterred. It would cost a few hundred dollars to do the same sea turtle release event in which she and her family participated. My husband and I talked about it and decided that we’d wait another year. That way, our kids would be another year older and hopefully, they would better remember the incredible thing we’d be doing.

I put the baby sea turtles out of my mind for another year.
