Posted on October 1, 2014 by Lesley | 1 Comments

My recent visit to Club Med Cancun Yucatan gave me an intense workout and allowed me to live an extended weekend of bucket list adventures.

I’m reminded of fishing stories when I think about this weekend. Are they tall tales or actual experiences?

After returning from an ocean view suite at Hard Rock Riviera Maya, I realized that Hard Rock properties are my favorite all-inclusive hotels.

Part of traveling and bucket lists, I believe, involves eating local food off the beaten path.
