Saturday, May 28 It’s a short 90-minute drive to Bacalar, the lake of seven colors. It’s just a bit north of Chetumal, near the coastline. We found a deal on a private room at a hostel called “The Yak House”. We were greeted by a cute little bug of a Continue Reading
Dec 13 A hotel room that is two story, bedroom upstairs, seating room below. Sounds cool, right? Yeah, so did we. Welcome to Morelia, where if you need to go to the restroom in the middle of the night be prepared for alot of groping. What they got wrong was Continue Reading
June 7 – We left Rioverde fairly early and set a course for Jalpan de Serra, smack in the center of the Reserva de la Biósfera Sierra Gorda. It was another series of roads along mountain edges with little or no guardrail and the occasional loose cow. As we entered Continue Reading
As we recharged, Sharon perused our map. There are some waterfalls an hour or so away. Even so, we both had this odd feeling of tourist let down. Maybe we should cut the trip short and head back. We took a short ride into town, found alambre al pastor for Continue Reading

June 14 – 17 – These next few days in Playa were basically spent sleeping late, swimming at the pool and, of course, watching the Spurs humiliate the Heat on Fathers Day. On the 17th we walked the strip and listened to the street fill with cheers as Mexico took Continue Reading
June 9 – 13 – Ok, I’ve officially lost track but we have basically fallen into a vacation pattern of one day on, one day off. I think on the 9th we started late morning to buy a few souvenirs for the grand kids and within minutes the time would Continue Reading
June 2 – Well, after all this relocating jazz, we didn’t stray too far. In fact we mostly napped. Same goes for tomorrow. June 4 – Enough laziness. We loaded up the car and headed north to Puerto Morelos and straight to Restaurant Ojo de Agua where we found Mario Continue Reading
