Sirena’s first international trip: Zihuatanejo, Mexico!

To celebrate my good friend Alison’s 30th birthday we tagged along with her family and friends to Zihuatanejo, Mexico for a week-long trip over New Year’s. What an incredible experience, we are so happy we decided to go!

Sirena the sailor. She LOVED the boat ride, not so much the oversized life vest, though…

The house neighboring the hotel had a dog that would keep watch from the rooftop, so funny

Group dinner

We were so amazed by how many Mexican women would approach us and ask to hold Sirena…the one that blew us away the most was this waitress at Bandido’s who held Sirena for 15 minutes while we ate dinner! She took her around the whole restaurant showing her off to the manager, the bartender, and the street vendors. This was by far one of my favorite memories of the trip!
