Inclusive Inclusion


First off, I apologize if this post is in Spanish.  No - not my Rosetta Stone course paying off....Instead, Rita and I are in Cabo San Lucas for a week, testing the timeshare market and our sunscreen spf.  The place where we’re staying is offering all-inclusive food and drink for $79 a day. $79 a day!  Rita was worried that this was “an invitation to over-eat and drink”.  To which I replied, “Oh honey – this is vacation, that invitation has already been extended….and accepted.”  But I was worried about how we can make sure to get our $79 worth?  Here are possible ideas:
  • Is there a starbuckies on site?
  • Have you ever MET Rita P.???  I think we can cover the $79 on the charcuterie course.  [There is likely to be a Rita exclusion on future trips, so we better enjoy this go-round.]
  • No….REALLY?  Alcohol is included?  Game Over [Looks like there could be a future Maeve exclusion too.]
  • Everyone is getting Mexican bottled water for xmas.
  • What’s your policy on sunscreen?
  • I don’t even LIKE lox – but I’m getting a whole plate of it with the rest of my 7 course breakfast. 
  • Put one of those pharmacias on site – all you can buy z-pacs.  (It IS Mexico, after all.)
  • A la carte?  A la included.  =) 
  • Wait a second….this isn’t like cruise ship food is it?! 
 Well – gotta run for my 2nd all-inclusive latte of the afternoon, so more tomorrow (if the internet holds – and  that is not included.)
