This may be a bit long and a few things are "under the dome" and bear not repeating..OK, actually nothing that exciting, lots of laughing, eating , walking, mucho tequila and vino.
Saturday Arrival, perfect flights arrive to cooked meal, Jackie, Pam ,stocked kitchen, and a cook!. The house is great sleeps 16 but we were only 9 .
Sunday was Superbowl so we went between sunbathing, swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, television, walking to eating and drinking.
Monday was all about "Sue's Birthday", her and her best-est friend(s). We all decided to go to Tulum. Now many took the 'tour' but myself, Roz, Pam and Jackie decided to do our own tour. Two of our group found their ADD kick in and then things went south. The laughter was so tear jerking that as we passed our peers on the 'tour' Carolina wished to jump ship but feared the wrath of her fellow tourist. We found our interpretation of the piles of rocks(Pam) to be very imaginative and the book we purchased gave us all the information on the history. IE Yum Kaac is the god of corn, it was a commercial trading town and no live virgins (or dead) were sacrificed to the gods . We ended the day in Tulum at a great Thai restaurant on the beach- Sue had more birthday shots!
Tuesday was Massage Day. Daniel the local massage/shaman came to bless us and we all agreed he was a blessing. The massages were great and while never crossing the line being conservative folks from the USA made each of us nervous.BUT not that nervous we scheduled him to come back a second day. Relax-Go Daniel. Oh yeah speaking of conservative ladies on our beach walk we came upon a small hotel with naked people, two men, one woman lay naked on beach chairs. Yes, they could get away with it, yes, we looked, and YES he was well endowed.
(Now my view is if you lie naked on a public beach you want to be looked at, so I looked)
Wednesday is Cenote and Gary's bar. For those from New England this is a deep mixed fresh water and seawater, all right its a clear water marsh and you all know what a bar is!
A note on Gary, He is a middle age guy who I thought was the waiter but found out he is the "owner and owns 5 Million dollars worth of beach front, lives in the adjoining shack,needs dental work, has blue eyes" which was 6 things more than we needed to know, on the positive it was the only place with a glass of decent wine.
Thursday off to Coba. This time Jayne, Sherry and I took 'the tour" while the other ladies jumped on bikes and rode off into the jungle. Coba (yes Pam, more pile of rocks) is the largest city, we got to walk up to the top of the largest pyramid and biking through the woods was fun.
Shopping and Local beer while we waited ride. It was hot!
Friday MORE massage(s), more Gary's bar, more kayaking---I don't know who won but is wasn't Jackie and Roz, they just laughed until they floated back to civilization.
Every day we had a delicious breakfast and terrific dinner prepared by Lily and Serena. Each beautiful sunrise and sunset made this location absolutely beautiful. We found the house on
VRBO.com.If you have a group and want a relaxing fun place this would be it!
