Blue Skies Breakfast

We woke up really happy on our third morning in Cancun. Why? Because finally the sky was blue. There were still clouds but this was the first time we had seen blue skies on our Cancun vacation and we were thrilled. After a night of booming thunder and nonstop downpours, the resort looked fantastic on our way to breakfast. We even got a seat near the windows so we got to gaze at the blue skies and dolphin pool for our entire meal.


We learned from our first breakfast what we liked and didn't like, and it should come as no surprise that we stuck to the two things we loved most: the juice bar and the Mexican breakfast station. They had beetroot/orange and orange/papaya juices again and we got more of those.


They had a different yogurt at this breakfast - apple yogurt! It tasted so natural, like biting into a crisp green apple. I've looked for this yogurt all over at home but it appears that we don't get this yogurt in the States. All we get are artificial apple flavors, like apple pie, apple turnover and apple cinnamon. Why can't we just have plain apple the way we have plain peach? It was quite good.


And lastly, what we filled ourselves up on (seriously, we ate way too much and were so full) - the Mexican breakfast station. They had sopes, chilaquiles, refried beans, guacamole and lots of pico de gallo. We got multiple servings of chilaquiles. They were delicious. And we stuffed ourselves with them.


This is my favorite type of breakfast. Savory foods, lots of vegetables, and tons of flavor. By this point in the trip, I began to do what I had never really done before (ever) - look forward to breakfast. Heartiest and tastiest meal of the day!
