Back to the snow and cold

This is it, I am now setting at gate C20 at the Cancun Airport waiting to see if my flight home will be on time.

I would think that Ohio has had enough snow and would want everyone to come home on time.

Oh well, worst casemy bathing suit is in my carry-on.

Good noodles and drinks

After walking up and down a couple of streets looking for this place that serves large margaritas to no avail, we found it a couple of days later.

So Jodi, you better remember this for next year.

The food is even good, and inexpensive.

Enjoy your snowstorm

This is for my brother- in- law John. No chance of snow here, the white buildings on the horizon are on Cozumel, 12 miles away.

5th Avenue

It was rainy this morning, so during one of the slow times we went out for breakfast.

It surprised us to see so many people out shopping at 9:30 in the morning. I guess since they couldn't be on the beach they were on the streets supporting the local economy.

Wickys

Wickys is the restraunt that is co-located, but not associated with the El Faro.



They have decent breakfasts with an assortment of both americam and mexican dishes at reasonable prices.

All meals B,L and dinner can be served either on the patio beside the beach or inside. Who wants to eat inside? Dinner can be a little pricey, starting at about $30 US.

Wickys also has the reasonability for taking care of and providing food and beverage service to the beach in front of the El Faro. YOU BURN THEY SERVE THE LIQUID PAIN KILLER.

Breakfast in the Garden

Some friends suggested a new place to try for breakfast, so this morning we were off.

GARDEN OF EATING, is a cute little place set outside under the trees in a tropical setting. There is a small shelter, that looks like it is used in the evenings or when they get real busy.

They have a nice varied menu, breakfast can be typical european or mexican. The food was good, service was fast and the prices lower than normal.

Best of all it is quiet, and off the main tourist streets, everyone there was folks that had been to Playa before.

Road Trip

We have friends from Michigan visiting now, and since it is their first time we did the road trip thing to Tulum.



Tulum was built between 600-900 AD and is has a beautiful setting on the cliffs above the ocean. While not a large a site as Chichen-itza it is much more dramatic in the location, it is the place we would recommend for anyone visiting a ruins for the first time
