Hola Amigos, we are back from a great week in sunny Mazatlan. Despite a few medical mishaps and Griffin being on a sleeping strike (except for the beach naps), the week was really amazing. We stayed at El Cid Marina which is a little bit out of the havoc zone and it too, was amazing, so clean and quiet - no fighting over poolside loungers or to get the last of the guacamole at the buffet. But what trip wouldn't be complete without at least one trip to a Mexican hospital (NOTE: all males may want to skip reading this part!). Poor Jasper ended up with a bad case of paraphimosis (just Google it, and be ready to cringe) and ended up in emergency at midnight the first day we arrived. However, we were pleasantly surprised to find a clean quiet hospital and top notch care (with english speaking doctors for us gringos). Jasper was "fixed" (not fun) and sent off with some prescriptions and was really none the worse for wear - what a trooper! Luckily Jasper was still able to swim and go in the ocean, I can't imagine how 6 days at the indoor Mexican McDonalds playground would have gone over.....
Oh, and of course we forgot our battery charger so we are waiting on Gma and Gpa to send over their pics, will post a few from before the camera died and some from our video camera.
Mexican Night at the El Cid Castilla - Mediocre buffet, but great headwear!

Jasper and Aaron in one of the two pools at the resort (and the one that Jasper didn't poop in!)

Griffin's favorite place to take a siesta - on the beach under the palapas!

Taken seconds before a massive faceplant by Griffin....we did a day trip to Mazaguas waterpark - super fun, super quiet but also a little sketchy. Poor Grandpa ended up as the next medical casualty of the trip thanks to some overzealous sledding!

Hey Christine! Sounds like you had fun. That's really not how it came across from Grandma and Granpa!! Lol! The difference in views of the older generation, eh? Glad you all had such a good time!
