![]() There are no tests or vaccination requirements to enter Mexico. Five hours wearing a mask to Cancun on our non-stop flight on JetBlue. Each person in the family had to fill out the immigration form. Unfortunately, the cabin crew did not pass out the forms until the flight became more than a little bumpy, I doubt the Mexican immigration could read many forms. It took about an hour to pass through customs and immigration and run the gauntlet of timeshare salespeople. By the time we arrived at our all-inclusive resort, Grand Moon Palace we were really ready for dinner. But it took some time to register with the front desk because of covid declarations.
We did have dinner at the Grill restaurant right next to our room. My short ribs were excellent, and my daughter's and husband's steaks were flame-grilled right at the table. My daughter said her ribeye was the best steak she ever had. The following morning, we had breakfast at the buffet. Omelets and eggs benedict cooked to order. There was also just about everything there you would what for breakfast. Along with our daughter, we enjoyed the water park. We soaked up the sun and indulged in strawberry daiquiris at the pools. We skipped lunch and stopped by the tapas and wine bars for hors d’ oeuvre with an excellent mojito before dinner at the Italian Restaurant. That evening we strolled down to the stage to watch a Michael Jackson tribute. We celebrated at the Speakeasy bar with smoked drinks. The following day the was the beach then the French restaurant, which was excellent for duck, Cornish game hens, and escargot. The following day we took the cenote tour. The Yucatan is riddled with underground streams and sometimes the roof of the stream partially or completely collapses providing us with a deep freshwater swimming hole. Many of the cenotes are improved with stairway access and toilets and picnic areas. Our tour led by Isaiah took us to five cenotes. Including zip-lining into the water and assisted rappelling into a cave. Isaiah even had a picnic lunch for us. There are 17 swimming pools and 11 restaurants on the property we tried to hit each one. There are continuous golf carts circulating through the property. So, you are never more than a few minutes from your destination. A negative Covid test is required to return to the USA and was available in the hotel with no charge for two people and $19US for the third person. A positive test gets you a 14-day quarantine in the hotel. We picked up sandwiches in the hotel for the flight home.
