Tulum is has a great beach, blue water, palm trees, sun and simple but nice cabins. What to say about sleeping in a hammock or drinking your Corona in the bar on a swing! And the diving in cenotes is something you must have done!

After spending four idyllic days on Isla Mujeres, I finally ventured back to the mainland. I would not have forgiven myself if I didn't see some Maya ruins in Mexico! I wasn't sure exactly which site I would head to first when I got up in the morning. I figured the bus schedule would dictate that t…

MEXICO! First introduction to the country, what better a way then to explore the Yucatan Penninsula...Chichen Itza, Tulum, Merida, Playa del Carmen. Man was it hot, slept in a hammock on the beach most nights. Ruins-amazing. Ceviche-sooo good. Margaritas-uh hem, otra?

The adventure of (yet un-named ) the gnome begins !

I guess I should finish this...Now, This Is A LocationI'm always interested by the difference between how one imagines a place and reality.  A number of people had described Tulum to me and, for some reason, I'd sort of got a colonial Spanish town in my head. Tulum is nothing like that - it is…

Tulum "Wall or Fence" a fortified Maya site was originally named Zama "City of Dawn". Located on Highway 307 about 30 miles south of Playa de Carmen. It sits at the edge of a limestone cliff high about the Caribbean. It is walled on the other 3 sides. The architecture of Tulum is typical of the…

End of May 2007, flew to Cancun, stayed in Playa del Carmen and drove all over the Yucutan checking out ruins. Of course I hung out at the beach too!

The final week in Tulum was pretty much the perfect end to an amazing trip. We rented an apartment in town and did nothing but relax. We went to the big supermarket and did a cheap and completely self-catered week, and it was amazing. When we weren't cooking, we chilled on the beach all day and wor…

Today we left Playa del Carmen to go to Tulum to see the ruins along the sea. It was really nice, but we were exhausted and the sun was too hot. After visiting the biggest part we went into the sea to swim and to refresh ourselves. Then we visited the rest of the ruins and found the beach further o…

Tulum June 2006

My best friend got married in Akumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico in May, 2007. I spent a week there with all of my best friends, and then explored some more of Yucatan State with my friend Bonnie.

Seeing that I live so close to Mexico, it is one of the places I visit quite frequently. I had visited the Yucatán Peninsula area of Mexico in March 2008 and then again in December 2008. This was one of the best road trips ever!
