We're booked!

Yes, The Husband and I are on our way back to Mexico!

Now that I am employed again... and the dog does not appear to require surgery for anything, we are heading back to the Yucatan Peninsula. This time, we're going to stay in a town called Akumal, about one hour south of CancĂșn.

Our plan is to spend some quality time snorkeling and to take a day trip to Coba to see the Mayan ruins. We will probably also take a small trip to the town of Tulum (we visited the Tulum ruins at our last trip to Mexico) or back to Playa del Carmen (where we stayed at our last trip). Oh - the trip we're planning to Coba will also include visiting a cenote and lunch.

The Yucatan Peninsula is riddled with underground freshwater rivers. Cenotes are sinkholes in those rivers in which you can swim, snorkel and—if you're brave—scuba dive throughout the underground rivers (no thanks!). The Husband and I have enjoyed snorkeling in cenotes before, and we are looking forward to the experience again!

When we're not in the water or at the ruins, we'll be relaxing in the Caribbean sun (with SPF 45, of course!).

This is why I had to get a job!
