funny happenings on vacation

03-10-2005

As I've been reading through the forum, I've read some funny things that have happened to some, for instance, there was a couple that went skinny dipping a t night and left their clothes on the beach, only to have them wash away with the tide. I was wondering if any one else had some stories to share? I haven't been to PDC yet, but will share mine after my return. Thanks.

And also a big thank you for all the patience you people show constantly, and all the help you provide.

I remember a few years back, sitting at Karens, listening to the great band while a torrential downpour was going on. There were green tarps over half the bar including the area in the back by the bathrooms. Therefore if you went to the ladies room they would give you a sombrero to catch the rain as you passed through and you still got drenched. I can also remember watching the electrical outlet beside stage (they have come a long way since) and the water pouring down beside it. We left there staggering down fifth through ankle deep water.

Well ya, it was the last night that we were in Playa, and we were to go home the next day. Anyways we were having a couple of drinks with Stephenie(must smile) and Jeff at bourbon st.

Anyways I was sitting facing out, and I was people watching like I usually do. Accross the street I saw this gentlemen leave a joint across from us. He was headed towards the water front I guess.

Well as the gentlem leaves the joint he accidently pumps into this women, actually I think he just staggered into her. As he staggered into her, the look on her face was well like you ass----. Then she winds up and sluggs the guy. I mean she really winds up and pow. I don't know maybe they new each other. I think he tried to appologise to her from staggering into her. But she hauls off and smacks him again.

I thought that they were going to have a knock down drag out type of fight, right there in the middle of the street. I says to everyone at the table,"Wow did any of you see that"? I mean the women hauling off and smacking him. They all said no. I thought that was the funniest thing though.

She hit him hard. Like something out of Bat Man like pow. Then they staggared down the street.

Then there was the time I think it was on our 2nd or 3rd day we were there. I think we were headed back to the hotel after lunch. We round a street, a tourist driving a pick up passes us, and another person a predestrian. The other person calls the person in the vehicle a ass---- and f-----.

At first I again thought that they new each other and were only joking around. Then the person in the truck starts to get out of his pick up like they were going to have a fist fight. Each of these guys both had either their wives or girl friends with them. So their partners were able to calm them down.

This was the only time and the last time that I didn't bring my camera with me. If I had my camera, I deffinetely would have taken a couple of pictures of that.

Oh the missed pictures that I had that day.

We still talk and laugh about the collectivo ride back to EDSS in the wee hours of morn where the driver kept passing "rank" gas and opening up the air freshener in the vent to disquise it.

I orginally put this in my trip report because it really was one of those way too funny things that happened on vacation; among others.

This was funny. We hop all over when we go down and on our way down to Punta Allen, we checked into Cabanas Copal. It was about dark when we arrived, my two boys 10 and 12 and my hubby and I.
We all do to bed in our very cozy cabana, I think it was #1, and in front of our cabana is a trail down to the beach, as we were waking up the next morning, 12 year old shouts oh how gross theres a NAKED DUDE in front of our window !

There was of coarse a very well indowed young man coming up from the beach!

I had no idea Copal was clothing optional.
We have been going to this area for years so they are used to naked boobies
but not snake sized penis! It was hularious! I jokinly asked my hubby,
"honey are you going to take your shorts off?" he got a look of horror on his face and say " NO WAY did you see the size of that guy!
We all had a good laugh!

Well, I had a skinny dipping, too-much-tequila drinking story, but I've told it and it's a little embarassing.

Oh yeah, talking about the naked man on the beach. We are staying in Penthouse Posada Freud and my daughter yells at us to come look out one of the more non-conspicuous windows. Looking down, across at Siesta Fiesta is a couple in their hammock on thier little veranda doing the wild thing. We are all pushing each others heads out of the way to get a glimpse. My husband said "that is talent".

Our first trip to Playa we were going to stay at the Porto Real, only to get bumped to the Cameleon Maravel in Puerto Adventures. 2 days later we booked a snorkel trip thru the hotel for Cozumel. They picked us up at the hotel along with a dozen or so other people and off we were to the ferry.
When we arrived in Cozumel we boarded an old wooded pirate type of boat and headed for the reefs. After we stopped for lunch, our crew informed us that there was no power on the boat and had taxis lined up outside the restaurant to get us back to the ferry.
Well after missing the ferry and waiting an hour for the next one, we were wet, tired, and cold, heading back to Playa. Reaching the pier we were excorted back to a bus in the dark. Then waiting for our driver, he announced that the head lights weren't working and he would have to find another bus.
I think it was around 8 or 9:00 when we finally got back to our resort.
Tired, wet, hungry, and laughing at everything that went wrong that day.
We still laugh about it 5 years later.

My hubby and i had a good laugh last year we took a snorkeling tour at the island of women( do not know how to spell it in Spanish) well the majority of the group that was also on the tour was staying at the Desire resort which is clothing optional as we start jumping in the water to snorkel one of the desire lady's top fell off in the water well all the guys arehooting and hollering and she didn't realize what they were cheering for. She continued to snorkel untill her husband came up and helped her with her top. the crew of the boat got a pretty big kick out of it.

Rissask · 03-16-2005

Okay I have a couple. One I put in Tesa's tanning bed nightmare thread- my hubby had a heat rash outbreak and got the name of a cream to cure it from a diver, so we went and got it at the drugstore and it turned out to be yeast infection cream- the look on his face as the plunger and graphic instructions fell out of the box was priceless- we had a good laugh about that- well, I did anyway.

The other story happened just last Friday in Playa. The guys had arranged to go bottom fishing for the day so left the hotel about 7 AM to get breakfast first. We ladies were going on a tour to Chicken Pizza, I mean Chichen Itza. I had told Mr. Rissask I might wander down Fifth to meet them for coffee if I got ready in time since my ride asn't coming to the hotel until 7:30. But it turned out I was too slow and didn't bother.

I guess they were at the Cafe Sasta having coffee and muffins when they spotted a woman walking down the street toward them. Apparently she was the spitting image of me, my doppelganger. All three of them swore up and down they totally thought she was me! Down to the style of clothes and the straw cowboy hat I had been wearing while there.

So anyway she is getting closer and so Lorne, one of the guys, gives a big wolf whistle at her.....at that precise moment my dear hubby realized- umm, that ain't my wife. Anyway, she was not impressed and glared icily at them as she passed...poor Lorne is a shy sweet guy and he was mortified he had whistled at a stranger!

On our first trip we stayed at the Barcelo. Lovely place and the beach is GORGEOUS! We walk to the extreme south end of the beach where it's nice and deserted. Sandra had been wanting to tan topless so she pulls her top off and lies on a lounger. She is rather busty and they are very nice.............................................. ..................................(sorry, got distracted there!) I'm looking for shells and such when I hear a rustling in the bushes behind us. Out of a small trail comes 4 younger guys who had been hiking through the jungle trails. They walk up and were sorta looking out of the corner of their eyes at Sandra. She's kind of peering at me through squinted eyes. So I did what most husbands would have done....I struck up a conversation with them and we talked for about 10 minutes! The whole time I could feel the glare from Sandra! We had a good laugh about it after she calmed down a little!!
