After eating we [Chad, Kristin, Brad, Kris, Kyle, Aaron and I] all decided that we would spend the afternoon browsing the shops and streets of Cancun within walking distance of our hotel. We had a timeline for the day with the wedding on the beach set to begin at 4pm.
We found a ton of fun photo op spots along our walk. We also stumbled upon an indoor Mexican market- where I took care of all my souvenir and gift shopping. I walked away with a cute royal blue leather braided bracelet for moi, a shirt for Gabriel, a stuffed sea turtle for Avrie and Vanilla for my Mom.
[while we waited forever and a mexican DAY for our REAL margarita, we were drooling over this!] 
[dawn i took this pic for YOU! lets move to mexico and when we do... you have to work at this stand IN A BAR serving your most famous GUAC! hahaha] We continued walking along the street to find a large outdoor mall. This was a NICE mall with a ton of shopping and WAY too much to see in our limited amount of time. We decided to find an outdoor patio for drinks, chips and salsa. We convinced our server to give us a deal- so he said first round will be 2-4-1s, that was all we really had time for so it was PERFECT! ;)
Soon we were all checking our watches and realizing that we only have about 45 minutes until it was wedding time! SO... we rushed back to the hotel by way of taxi- made a dash through the lobby splitting up to each get ready in our rooms- we were all to meet back in the lobby in 15! WHAT... YICKS!!!
Browse my shopping notes while I get ready...
[my fav pic is the #kangy pic! i might frame it for avrie!]Good thing the sun wasn't out [CANT believe i JUST SAID THAT!] because I had NO time to shower. It was also a bummer that I had no time to curl my hair! ahhhhhhh Oh well... I had one of my favorite dresses on and had just enough time to touch up my make up and apply a set of eyelashes. Yes... lashes, one of my most FAV dress-up accessories! *fun fact: the last time I wore this dress I was about 35 weeks PREGGO! hehe
so for REAL, 15 minutes later, we were back in the lobby to meet up with Kyle so that we could walk the beach over to THE Royal for the Campion's beach wedding!
Back soon with Day 3: part II "The Wedding". A post full of wedding details & pictures of the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception dinner and dance party AND the new Mr & Mrs Campion!
