And this is where it all stops.

The last full day that I was in Cancun was Mel's birthday! The big 2-5! For breakfast we had German pancakes with lots of yummy stuff on top (I even brought syrup from Boston, okay).

This was the breakfast spread. Are you feeling kind of jealous? Some genius decided to take pictures at 7:30 WHILE WE WERE MAKING BREAKFAST AND LOOKED LIKE PEOPLE FROM FRAGGLE ROCK, but those pictures obviously didn't make it to the blog. Bummer. They're worse than the snorkeling pictures if you can believe that.
And, of course, it wouldn't be a birthday without a picture in "the hat." What a babe.

Ow ow.
Wow

I know I'm a dork, okay. Play I Spy and you can see the nice burn up on my right shoulder. Just, ya know, a tiny little strip where I forgot sunscreen the day before. Awesome. Seriously, NBD. NBD.

For lunch we had watermelon, pineapple, mangoes, leftover guacamole, more quesadillas?, and hint of lime chips out on the patio. It was raining.

Of course it wouldn't be another day in Cancun if we didn't take a jumping picture. Here is the "I have to go to the bathroom" before shot.

It was a struggle to get a good one. Mel looks like she's doing a heel click. Seriously, she can jump.

Sarah and Mel were off being adventurous that day, but Rach and I just kinda wanted to chill. Good times.

We went into town that night and ate at a yummy little Brazilian restaurant for Mel's bday. My food was delicious. I know this is ridiculous that I only have a picture of me at Mel's bday dinner but what can I say? I love myself.

We took some time for a photo op when we got back to our place. This is in front of the hotel. You might think that is a Mexicano with us, but it's just Sarah. Don't worry about it-- she's brown.

Sarah and I soon found out there were killer ants making their home by that sign. There was also a super creepster TAKING PICTURES OF US TAKING PICTURES. Scary! Remember how we ran away from that guy?
One dork+one dork+another dork= 3 weirdos

We came home and had cake for Mel's bday that night. Strawberry shortcake, actually.

Mel was kinda depressed because she saw me putting the candles on the cake and saw that I used a whole box plus an extra one I brought from home and realized that she no longer is the same age as a full box of candles. It is a sad thing but she pulled through like a trooper.

Isn't she cute? And I know the cake doesn't look all that special but BELIEVE ME. It was excellent. See below.

I know this picture has already been on the blog, but this was the best picture of the cake. Mmmm. She may look like a nice little math teacher in other pictures but don't be fooled. She will put up a serious fight for cake.
Kinda miss that place.

Hey guys. I'm done blogging about Cancun. I know you're excited. I promise to never document any of my vacations like this again. Forgive me.
