Well, looks like it's going to be icky and nasty in Cancun for the next 5 days. http://www.weather.com/weather/map/interactive/Cancun+Mexico+MXQR0138
We're thinking about cancelling the trip. What would you gals do in this situation?

Re: Sh*t
I'd go.
Forecasts aren't always right. And even if it is, for the love, enjoy the hotel room.
But I'm not a real outdoorsy girl.
We were in Playa del Carmen (about 45 mins south of Cancun) in July, and the forecast said rain every day, but then they kept changing it the day before the actual day. And then, even when it said rain--it's not like it poured all day or anything. We maybe had some downpours, but it was nice the rest of the day. That's typically what you'll get in tropical climates... periods of rain every day. We had the same experience when I was in Dominican Republic with my family in college--rained EVERY morning, but then it cleared up and was beautiful.
I don't know, I guess it depends if you'd have to pay to cancel/change the trip. If it was going to cost you money, I wouldn't do it. Just go and make the best of it. Plus, you just never really know what's going to happen with the weather. Even with a stellar forecast--things change so quickly.

I'd go. I know it's a different El Dorado resort than the one I've been to, BUT...
the room was amazing. you can always enjoy the awesome bed... we had a two person shower and an in room jacuzzi. we also read on our balcony a lot.
the food was UNBELIEVABLE. that's one reason karisma resorts are rated so highly. you will enjoy the food so much, that's a vacation in itself.
a lot of our evening shows were "covered" and went on rain or shine. some were pretty good!
the bars are covered (at the pool,beach, etc) so you can always be there... and our bars/barkeepers were great, and we met some fun people.
it rained almost every day we were there, but only for an hour or so, and it was no big deal. unless it's going to rain all day every day, i think you will still get quality pool/beach time. we played beach volleyball in the rain once and it is one of my favorite memories!
I mean this isn't just a small percentage of rain, we're talking 70-80% chance everyday due to a tropical depression and hurricane jova, blah, blah, blah. We don't know what to do! We have trip insurance so we'd only be taking a $175 loss.
