We are going diving at last! Our session in Isla Mujeres got cancelled a few days ago because of the weather, so we are now very eager to go & we really hope it's worth it! It's booked for 10 o'clock so around 09h30, we're at the dive shop to try all the gear on & get the sizes right. We're all ready to rock n'roll but we're waiting for some people from a cruise boat, they will be half an hour late, great! 10h30, still no sign of them, so the guy from th...

What a great day it's been! We arrived on the site of Chichen Itza at 8 am for the opening, it was the best thing we could have done as we were the only people walking on the ball court at this time. It's a beautiful site, very modern compared to the other sites I've been to but it's impressive.

After we had settled down, we just went for a walk around the town centre, planned our day out to Chichen Itza tom...

Oh my god!!! Someone has invoked the god of the rain (chaac) a bit too much!! Yesterday was horrendous!! I've never been soaked as much, the streets are flooded, we've got water up to the knees in the main street! Anyway, we had planned to go diving yesterday but due to the weather, it got cancelled, so we thought we would just rent a golf cart & explore the island, it was fun at the beginning, driving through the puddles & getting wet but with no real w...

A lovely & sunny morning around the pool of the hotel before heading to Isla mujeres again. I tought it would be dry, but the rain is following us, on & off, we spent a couple of hours on the beach but no sun so we were a bit cold. Back to the room, got changed & we went to explore the streets of the city & for dinner. Après une agréable matinée passée autour de la piscine de l'hôtel, direction Isla Mujeres, mais malheureusement la pluie à...
