AT LAST AT THE BEACH.

2nd - 3rd March - Puerto Morelos, Cancun -Acumaya Cabanas ($33)
At last we have hit the beach, and now we know where all the tourists are, here in Cancun. The massive hotels run all the way down the coast to beyond Plays Del Carmen, except our little cabana and RV park which looks lost surrounded by the big hotels. The town of Puerto Morelos is sweet. It has been so hot over the last few days, 105 deg, that it is a joy to be near the sea breeze and easy for a dip. Adele has just been snorkelling as saw a massive stingray, over 5ft long. She is going on a wreck scuba diva tomorrow. The prices here are high so we are going to try and park the van besdies someones property for a couple of nights. Then we are heading down to towards the Belize border. Great scuba diving down there too.

1st March - Chitchen Itza -Pyramide Inn (£7)
A very well preserved Mayan site and full of tourists coached in from Cancun. It was a bit of shock to see so many Westerners, especially the Australian woman with white cowboy boots, and Australian T shirt and hat, what style and in this heat!! It was a sight to behold and we could not help people watch more than checking out the ruins. Adele is now convinced that the idea of the game Harry Potter came from the game palyed within the Maya culture, the losers being sacrificed. I will try and upload a photo but it involves getting the ball into a ring.
