Since the plane trip is outta the way....we shall start with BigAL picking Deb and I up at the airport in his HUMMER....

when we FINALLY get out of customs ( 2 hrs ) we find BigAL wandering the street out front with a printed out version of Deb and I that i sent him via email......he was holding it up and screaming......SEEN THESE 2 ???? SEEN THESE 2 ???

and he shoves the pic in my face and does'nt say anything and by this time i'm sooooooo freakin' shcoked at seeing our pic in another country......i thought we were MISSING ! After we hop in the HUMMER.....AL has Cervesa's waiting for us in a cooler...what a guy ! now it's time to

and drive......and we did.......straight to the BEER BUCKET ! we by-pass our hotel ( it'll still be there anyway) and we pull up out in front of the BB and hop out toss down some of the coldest BEER in Playa when an el copo' comes by and give AL a look like he's going to jail for parking in a NON un-loading spot ! which happens to be right across from the NEW location for Play.info !

BigAL drops us off at the Coco Bay and we say our good bye's till the next day ! Upon check-in we discover we are being booted to the RIU La Pinta............said they were doing work on the floors of some rooms....LMAO.....after a little

with the MGR....we get the standard 3 days FREE for our next trip ........NOT good enuff fer me.....me requires a ocean front room on 2nd floor or higher for the inconvience.....he gurantees it....we we return in 2 days....ok...ok...we'll see. The RIU is really beautiful by the way and even tho it's not ocean front ........ you still have access to their other 2 properties which you can go to and they ate AI also on the beach with a free shuttle ride
