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…

We got up relatively early, say 9am or so, and after breakfast and with the bicycles rented we were all set, Roberts, Karlis, Nicole and I were going to see La Gran Cenote and the ruins. As it pretty overcast we thought we'd leave the Cenote for the afternoon because perhaps the weather would clear…

i've gone as far as possible from my home but i'm always reminded that one of the worlds best travel destinations(besides my home of course) is right next door in Mexico!

Talk about relaxing! Playa del Carmen was such a grrrreat {last minute} choice! It's such a nice difference from built-up Cancun. Playa had lots of smaller hotels right on the beach, with plenty do to do and lots of great restuarants within walking distance!

Try to visit every year around the beginning of the year...love the Yucatan!! I've posted a few pics of our fave places...Tulum, Cozumel, Playa del Carmen.

Mexico with hurricanes and all!! From Cancun to the north, via Campeche, Acapulco, Mexico City, Guadalajara, Mazatlan, La Paz, Topolobampo and Chihuahua.

Cruised down to Mexico with a British guy I met on this site. We met up with another American in Mexico, also from this site! Went to Cozumel, Playa del Carmen, Tulum, Cancun and more!
