Jett and I leave tomorrow for a week in Mexico. It will almost certainly be our last full-week vacation before we retire. We will have a week in the sun to talk about the future, get rid of the last vestiges of that damn cold and consume vast quantities of alcohol (yes, it is an all-inclusive).
I sometimes wonder if these all-inclusives aren’t just a little too inclusive. It is one thing to be able to get a free drink from a bar, but in Mexico the room comes stocked with big bottles of tequila, rum, vodka and gin. If someone had a problem with limiting alcohol intake, this would be a bad place to be. And yet I have never seen stumbling-drunk guests at an all-inclusive in Mexico like I have on a cruise where the drinks are expensive. Maybe they get so drunk that they skip the stumbling part and just pass out?
