Travel Snacks

blog55_pic1blog55_pic31

I recently took a trip to Cancun. It was unexpected and fun. The beaches were beautiful and the sound of the waves crashing while a gentle breeze wafted through open windows was wonderful. The all-inclusive resort was something that a girl could get used to really quickly.

Since I didn’t have to worry about food while I was at the resort, I only had to pack a few items. We all know airline food is almost non-existent lately, so I stuffed my tote bag with lots of tried and true travel snacks. I went to my local grocery store and stocked up on flavored popcorn, pistachios, crackers, bottled water and a few other yummy nibbles. Luckily, there are so many generic choices these days. I didn’t break the bank and had money left over for a few souvenirs for the little ones.

I also saved on store brand sunscreen. We went on an excursion where they were selling sunscreen for $15! I am glad to report that my store brand sun repellant was only $5. I hit the dollar store up for two books that only set me back $2 total. You sure can’t beat that!

Who knew traveling didn’t have to break the bank?

P.S. I’ve included a few photos of the scenery. I hope you enjoy!
