swine flu update: the riveria maya is swine-flu-free
Published by rachel perry schrank on Wednesday, April 29, 2009 at 8:16 AMI thought i'd post a quick update on the swine flu situation in Playa and the Riviera Maya. The health department of the state of Quintana Roo, which includes Cancun, Cozumel, Playa del Carmen, Chetumal, Isla Mujeres, and the entire Riviera Maya, has announced that we have ZERO cases of swine flu in our entire state as of yesterday morning, April 28th. Here is a link to an article which explains that of the 22 suspected cases, only one tested positive for type-A flu (a common strain) and than NONE were the swine flu virus:

The sun is still shining in the Riviera Maya!!!! Safer than California!!!
Cheers,
Rachel

Riina & Tom: Sunrise Trash the Dress
Published by rachel perry schrank on Thursday, March 05, 2009 at 9:03 AMThis was our first sunrise trash the dress, in December. We started *really early*, like 6 a.m., but I think you can see from these photos that it was TOTALLY worth it!!! This whole shoot was just magical! We couldn't believe how beautiful the sunrise was....
