My trip to Barcelo Maya Palace Resort - Cancun 2022 

You will enjoy it!

I'm an early morning person. Most of my video was shot in the morning when there weren't many people up yet! LOL Later in the day, and into the evening, the pools become party central. Though it wasn't rowdy, it was MUCH busier.

I also noticed that in the afternoon, when you first arrived.

I assume the dolphin pool is salt water, but I don’t know.

I don't DO cold pools, and I swam several times. They were wonderful!

@@LiveSimpleLiveFree that’s good to hear, thx.

Sorry, that was several months ago and I don’t remember.

Yes, we actually tried. But he didn’t have a passport, and it now takes a RIDICULOUSLY long time to get one! He couldn’t get it in time.

I was going to cancel. But She absolutely INSISTED that I go without her. It made her upset to think that I would miss the trip because she was ill.

No such requirement. Millions of Americans have refused the vax. And the vax is not required for re-entry into the USA after traveling abroad. It’s not required for travel to/from Mexico

Yes, we travel a lot together -at least 3 times per year with Thrive Life. We have a “Travel” playlist.

I looked it up and many people complain about not getting their free shipping over $100 order. Have they straightened that out yet?

Cool!

I've been to the resorts south of Cancun twice, and I love it.

No, I don't swim much (unless I'm snorkeling).

All of the music that I use in my videos is royalty-free music that is provided by RU-vid in the creators studio.

I think the beautiful guitar music on this video was: "Laid Back Guitars" by Kevin MacLeod. Here is the RU-vid link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-39Vyg19EuwA.html

There are many ways to preserve food, and freeze drying is THE healthiest way! Here is an independent study (not from Thrive Life) that shows that freeze drying food is top technique for retaining nutrients. www.foodnavigator-usa.com/Article/2016/11/14/Freeze-drying-fruit-is-top-technique-for-retaining-nutrients-Study?OnSite& Thrive Life freeze dried food is actually healthier and more nutrient dense than that beautiful looking "fresh" produce that you can get at the grocery store! Here's MY video about the nutrition of Thrive Life. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-J6TyLYYNvZM.html And Thrive Life food is actually CHEAPER than the grocery store! Comparing the cost of Thrive Life straight across to grocery store prices will almost always SEEM like Thrive costs more. BUT, there is one major component to the formulae that almost everyone misses. It's spoilage. Waste. According to a Harvard study, the average family throws away 25-40% of the food that they purchase, due to spoilage. Either it spoils in the fridge before they can use it, or they cook too much and then throw away the leftovers 2 weeks later. THE MOST EXPENSIVE FOOD YOU CAN BUY IS THE FOOD THAT YOU THROW AWAY! And Thrive Life completely eliminates waste! So you need to realize that you must ADD at least 25% to the cost of grocery store food if you want to compare it to the cost of Thrive! Since you will throw away 25% of grocery store food, you have to buy 25% MORE. This makes the cost of Thrive comparable or even CHEAPER than the grocery store. Then, add in the extra convenience and the better nutritional content of Thrive food, and it becomes a no-brainer. Why doesn't everyone buy Thrive?! LOL Most people look at the cost of individual servings in order to compare prices. And like I said, this ignores the spoilage issue. The better way to compare cost is to look at the amount that you spend on groceries on a MONTHLY basis. People who track their monthly grocery budget over a period of months are all reporting that they are saving money every month using Thrive. This is because they don't have to buy as much food because they are not throwing away any food due to spoilage. There was a study done a few years ago at the Univ of Utah. They studied 156 families of four. They found that any family of four that used Thrive Life in at least 50% of their daily cooking saved, on average, $150 per month!

I was just there last week - second week in November. But the low crowds that you see happened mostly because I film early in the morning while most people are still in bed. It wasn’t that empty later in the day.

But then you miss all the beauty!

@@LiveSimpleLiveFree lol fine by me!🤢

Well thank you! 😎

Are you sure you're talking about THRIVE LIFE? First, you have to be a leading consultant to be able to earn one of their trips. I personally know all of the leading consultants. I've been on the trip every year for the past 6 years, and I've never heard of Shannon Watts. And "highly addicted?" Thrive Life is not addictive - it's just groceries! Also, I don't know how someone could "get into debt" with Thrive Life. It doesn't cost anything to be a consultant, except the $100 consutlant starter kit and a minimum $50/month personal order! Consultants do not have to stock up on inventory. All sales are shipped directly from the company to the customer.

The one Shannon Watts was doing is “Thrive by Le-Vel.” This “Thrive” is totally different.

Yes, apparently Thrive by Le-vel is a weight loss patch? I don’t know much about it. My company, Thrive Life, is a provider of premium freeze dried groceries.
