Hello from Maryland

[Kim in Maryland]

James,

My husband and I met you at a bar in Playa in 2002 and delivered you some magazines and Old Bay from Maryland. We'll be back again in Februay, let me know if you need any more Old Bay or anything else.

Hi Kim, welcome from one Marylander to another

[Kim in Maryland]

Thanks Mercy, wow what happened to our warm weather in MD, now I'm really ready for Playa..

[Mercy]

Yep, I know what you mean about the weather!

I see you are leaving for Playa soon, where are you staying?

[Kim in Maryland]

We're at the Riu Palace Riviera Maya, it's a group of about 100 of us coming down. We like the Riu but really enjoy spending time downtown away from all of the AI. Where are you staying?

Wow, 100!! Are you with a certain group? You should have a blast!

I think we are going to book the Shangri-La Caribe, it's on the beach just north or Playa. We just haven't decided when yet.

Wow with all these Maryland peeps we have now on the forum the next Mid Atlantic Peep Meet should be a huge turnout!!!

BTW for all the newbies from Maryland be sure to check out this thread and give Maryland a few more votes....Where Do You Plant Your Butt

Are you talking about the shopper from minnesota

[Kim in Maryland]

Yep, 100 of us, it's a group of home builders that go away in February every year. This is our second trip to Playa with them, last year we were on a cruise to the Mexican Riveria. We loved Playa when we were here in 2002 and can't wait to come back. It was the most relaxing vacation I've ever been on. I can't wait to get out of this cold weather.

One place you don't want to be in Jan/Feb (or Nov-April for that matter) is MN. I grew up there so I can say that. The Yucatan is full of Minnesotans and they tend to stay a while by my polling.

Well, I guess that would make sense then. I hate being in MD in Jan/Feb more or less MN!!!

Hope you all have a great time... be sure to write a trip report when you return with lots of pictures
