I was trying to remember what I said when i fell. I think i might've said I broke my knee?? It happened so fast I really don't remember but when my husband helped me up, I realized pretty quickly that I couldn't walk/put any weight on my left leg. He helped my hop back up the beach to our chairs. Then he went to get ice for my knee and brought me back a bloody mary with an extra shot of vodka because we had already realized how weak their drinks were. Ah, liquid pain killers. After the drink we moved(with great difficulty) back over to the pool area in the shade. He left me there reading (or trying to) and went for a swim. He brought me lunch because i could no way walk to the buffet. At some point we procurred some crutches from the guy at the pool/towel shack. They were pretty cool - adjustable, cept they weren't that easy to use, as i found out(never having had the opportunity to use them before and hopefully never again.). I actually found out yesterday that i was definitely using them wrong if my armpits hurt(which they did). Let's see the rest of the afternnoon was alchohol led: beer (or 2) with lunch, then i switched to my fav: pina coloadas- not sure if i had 1 or 2 - probably 2 - yes i think i had the 2nd at the swim-up pool bar; however in my case it was the lower her down from her crutches bar. where there is a will there is a way. Commonsense prevailed tho and i left after that one and slowly made my way back to the room- did i mention we were on the 2nd floor - no elevator?

This is getting very interesting .. liquid pain killer is what they used in days of old.
Amias- you are being kind. I think it is just drivel; but you guys asked for more.
Ah, the joys of trying to go downstairs with crutches! I was terrified of it.
Sorry you are getting spam - I have 6 blogs and rarely get anything and what does come is usually on an old post because they spam on content not date.
oh, my - what a good attitude!
Lee- a nice man told me the trick- only use one going down the stairs, hold onto the rail with one hand.
Sky- not really - wait for installment 3- when the liquid pain killers wear off. :D
Oh man :(
Wondered why I didn't hear glowing reviews of Mexico.
