Beach palace- cancun

Hi guys!
As some of you may know I am in cancun for 2 weeks. I wasn't going to post anything, and after thus post I might not post again depending on how busy we get :-)
We flew from Manchester airport and it was hubby's second long haul flight so he got a bit restless towards the end. The flight itself was fab, it was on the Thomson dreamliner and I will admit I got a bit excited by the windows that can change colour! The meals were gorgeous, we had chicken pasta bake, brown bread, cheese and crackers and chocolate mousse for lunch and egg sandwich, and scone with cream and jam for afternoon tea.
The movies were really good, I watched the other women, tinkerbell and the pirate fairies, this means war, the carrie diaries and birds of a feather and I played who wants to be a millionnaire.  It was actually really good fun!
We got a private taxi through thomsons to our hotel, we weren't sure where to get the taxi from as I have only ever been on a coach from the airport before so we asked the rep and he told us to go and stand down by the car place where there was a big crowd of people. We had to wait about 15 minutes before another thomson rep came and took our name and showed us to our taxi but after that everything was fine. I pointed out all the hotels I've stayed in in the past to the hubby as he has never been here before and we had a chat with the taxi driver.
When we arrived at our hotel I was.given flowers, and we were both given cold lemon scented towels to refresh ourselves with. Everyone was so friendly and in no time we were checked in!
The hotel was the beach palace hotel in  cancun if anyone wants to know :-)
We were told to see guest services as there was a surprise for us but hubby wanted to put our things in the room first.

The room is the best I have ever stayed in! There was a whirlpool bath, champagne chilling in ice and some chocolates for us! We have a closet with complimentary bath robes and slippers, the mini bar was full of Heineken for the hubby and there was a separate pullout stand with vodka, rum, whisky and tequila for shots. The balcony has a bed lounger in it as well as a table and chairs which I thought was such a good idea as the other hotels I've stayed in have only provided a table and chairs! There is a shower too which is quite big and the normal things like tv,  table and chairs inside, dressing table, hairdryer, straighteners, iron, ironing board, king size bed and safe.
When we went to guest services we were offered a couples massage, a romantic dinner for two on the terrace next to the beach on the night of our choice, an alcohol surprise to come to our room in the next two days and matching t shirts which I thought were so cute!
The rest of the day we spent walking along the beach, we had something quick to eat and then went to bed!

That's it for day one, hope you all enjoyed it :-)

Oh and I travelled in a vest top, hoodie and a maxi skirt as I knew it would be super hot when we landed so could take the hoodie off and be cool in my skirt and vest top.  Hubby travelled in black combat trousers and a grey hollister t shirt.
