Day 1
Day one starts out rather smoothly. We get up at 4:30am to be at DTW for our 7:00am flight to Cancun. We park our car off site for $8 bucks a day, take the transfer and arrive in our terminal at 6:10am. Much to our surprise no line
We get our seats 4A and 4b on USA3000. It was worth the extra $5 to book our seats with the on line reservation. I'm thinking yeah great we'll make the 10:30am ADO bus, or at least 11:30. So the plane is full, the flight attendant closes the door, we're off..............or so I thought. The Captain comes on and says "We need to de-ice the plane" So I'm thinking 20-30 minutes right? Wrong! we taxi to the furthest part of the airport to de-ice. Ok It's done and we're back to where we started 70 minutes later.
Next thing I know the Captain says "flight attendants prepare for departure"
We are off!!! Bye 18F Detroit
No problemo's during flight. Alisa and I each got a breakfast sandwich at $5(fyi no cash accepted for food). A minute later we finish our breakFAST, you know what I mean after the morning rush. Next up James Bond movie, The spy who loved me. Finally the movie is over. I look out the window and see ocean, and Mexico. We begin our descent.
We land! we arrive at terminal 3. WOW, this place is awesome! Cruise through customs. I'm thinking we'll make the 11:30 ADO bus. Wrong! Of course my bag is the last bag off the plane! Thanks to MY bag we miss the bus. Hello 12:30pm ADO bus. We buy our $8 tickets to Playa. So you know what that means $5 beers at coconuts. But you know were in Mexico. It's sunny and 83F. So finally we load up the bus and head to Playa.
