Have we really only been gone 6 days? We have had adventures by the bucket load in Mexico, from marriage propositions to tequila related injuries it feels like a years worth of memories already.
We flew into Cancun on Wednesday and headed straight to Playa del Carmen, where we were stalked by a creepy old American ex pat and had a smorgous board of offers of a Mexican boyfriend for the night. So tempting…
Now we are in a little Mayan village called Tulum aka paradise. We have a cabana right on the beach and the only light after dark is candles, so very romantic for us lovers…
Yesterday we went to an all inclusive eco fun park which saw us jumping off cliffs, swinging jungle jane style into cenontes and consuming copious amounts of food and tequila. So much so that the only part of our bodies that got burnt were our protruding bellies! The tequila festivities continued into the night were Hayley was a salsa dancing queen and Josie was a fluent Spanish linguist. We also managed to break the cardinal road trip rule of not loosing each other while drunk. Hayley found herself asleep in the gutter and $1000 pesos out of pocket in her cab ride home while Josie decided the best method of transportation was to hop on the back of a french mans bicycle and thrash her way through the jungle. See the results for yourselves:
The next leg of our journey should be a little tamer as we visit Mayan ruins and head inland to the old colonial towns of Chichen Itza, Merida and Velladoid.
