Starting our vacation from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada: We caught the commutor flight from Sault Ste. Marie to Toronto at 6 am. The weather report the night before was calling for heavy snowfall and blistery winds. Lucky for us it was mostly rain on our drive to the airport @ 4:30 AM. The flight from the Sault to Toronto was uneventful. We landed in TO, found our departure gate and waited. Flight from TO to Cancun left about 10 am. On flight, we were surprised to find out that our compl...
Cancun, Mexico borealjka new world awaited me..one that I never really knew. Sure, I had read lots of history throughout high school and studied geography too but this was my first experience as a grown adult to a new destination outside of Canada..Mexico was something I could only relate to by once having a friend..called Juan. In my mind he reminded me of the typical Mexican peasant or slovenly soldier one viewed in the westerns we'd watch in the old days...anyways; having just been married to Nicole; my younger,...
Playa del Carmen, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico tramper
... only guest in my nine room hotel, it is on the ground floor, not good, it is only two streets from beach, which sounded good before I knew about the hurricane and the only other person there is the creepy hotel housekeeper who lives upstairs and I would not put it past her to be up there naked, dancing around, sacrificing some poor goat to the cheesy dip rain god and being the root cause of this bad weather. In summary MY hotel ...
Cozumel, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico john.boyd.123... For some reason, the topless gals came out in full force the last day we were there. Everything else was perfect. <br><br>Meeting people was really fun. Met some fairly bleary-eyed folks in the Margarita Pool Bar but hey, that was part of the experience. Met a really fun English guy and his family (from Birmingham I think) named Paul Harris. We had some fun conversations with him.
Puerto Aventuras, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico terryklong... I enjoyed a red cactus (hibiscus) margarita. After lunch we walked back to gather our beach items and head to Tulum pueblo. About a quarter mile past the southern end of the pueblo we found the large nursery on the east side of the road "Vivero." We picked up bougainvillea, fan palm and soil for the flower pots we previously bought. We also picked up a lime tree and a flamboyant tree to plant in the jungle across the street from us. The nursery has a wide ...
Chemuyil, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico chanchemuyil... bus station in Mexico City to the other eight miles away. PLENTY of time. I was all set. Packed my bags, got the housesitting family settled in and attempted to kiss the kitties farewell... All three promptly ignored me, glaring at me, and shooting guilt darts with their eyes into my heart... Found my coat, grabbed my hat, made the bus in seconds flat... My journey East began May 7, 2002 from the West coast bus station of Zihuatanejo on the ...
Zihuatanejo to Playa del Carmen, Mexico tacoinusa... olemme Tulumissa, jossa hirmumyrsky Wilma runteli rannikkoa kaksi vuotta sitten. Etsimme majotusta noilta valkoisita kookospalmujen reunustamiulta rannoilta, mutta kohtasimme amerikkalaisen "ekoparatiisin". Rannat olivat täynnä pieniä ulkomaalaisten omistamia majataloja, jotka tarjosivat amerikkalaisturisteille kylmiä merivesisuihkuja kynttilänvalossa hintaan 200 USD. Sähköjä ei oltu korjattu myrskyn jälkeen vieläkään ja kaikki makea vesi piti ostaa pulloissa ...
Tulum, Mexico pentti_kotiaho... guac, which comes out as smashed avocado and "No" seasoning - hence not much flavor. He does have a great view tho, and we snap a couple of pics of a kite surfer . . . . . . and of course my lovely 'esposa'. While we are eating at Nachos, we notice a small path near the waterfront that appears to head to the right (south). We observe as a couple of couples take this path and disappear. Now we have already taken a "North" along the ...
Akumal/Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico austxdan... with the 'Roo (duh!) and then embark on a 16 year journey to buy land and build a house in Puerto Morelos. It's a good read, very interesting with a lot of Yucatan history. (Note: once we got home I bought 3 more books from the bibliography of this one. I will be Yucatan and Maya literate before my next trip. I definitely have "the fever"). I have instructions to send it to someone else next, as this book is 'getting around ...
