Even though I’m on vacation, I’m trying to keep up with exercising. I ran on the treadmill for 20 minutes. I had to set the treadmill at 10.5 mph to reach a SLOW jog so I have no idea what speed I was actually running or what distance I covered. I did work up a sweat because someone had shut the AC off in the gym and it was incredibly hot and stuffy.
Jared and I enjoyed a drink before dinner.
We also found out that our upgraded stay at the Riu Palace Americas was actually booked through 2/14 so we’re here for another night. Fingers crossed that we’ll be allowed to stay for our final night. It would be a pain to pack up and move hotels for the final night of the trip.
I had the most delicious lamb entree at Krystal. I ate every bite! Perfectly seasoned, medium-well as ordered, and so good served over a mix of peppers.
We stopped to watch the hotel’s “Crazy Show” on our way back to the room. Ridiculous costumes, lip syncing, and choreography to popular songs by Shakira, Ray Charles, Elton John, and the Village People just to name a few. The show was true to its name, and so bad that it was good.
It’s really windy today and the sun is in and out behind clouds. After breakfast, Jared and I sat outside and read for a little while. Now we’re contemplating going for a run along the Hotel Zone.
We weren’t able to make dinner reservations tonight so I think we’re just eating at the buffet. But that works out perfectly because there’s a mariachi band playing and I’d love to sit and listen after I’ve had a good meal.
