So, our last night in Playa del Carmen was good. The 4 of us girls went to a cool beach-bar that had big swings around the bar and a platform dance floor on the beach - which of course we were the first to jump on! It did eventually fill up though and I danced alot. The next day we all caught a bus to Cancun which we hurried out of and caught a boat to the Isla de Mujares (the Island of Women!) where we have been ever since. Staying in a really cool hos...

Had a nice few days in Tulum. On Saturday we went on a trip to the cenotes (lime-stone caverns filled with water). We had to wear wetsuits (not v.flattering I can tell you!) then travel to the caves on this crazy 'jungle-mobile' where you STAND in the back and ride through the jungle along a dirt-track, which was fun!

Woo! We have made it to Mexico! We travelled by bus all the way to the border, stopping over in a town near the border for the night.

We had to get off the bus at the border, get our passports stamped, walk acroos the border and get back on the bus again. We changed to a Mexican bus at th...

Hey! Have just spent lovely few days on Caye Caulker, Belize. So, after leaving the town of Dangriga we caught a bus (yet another used American school-bus) to Belize City. It was a bit of a drive but cool because a lot of it was in the beautiful mountains where we drove through the misty rainforests whilst listening to Belizean music (Punta) on the way, which sounds much more carribbean than latin, a bit like soca but even faster! The driver played it (loudly) ...

We're now in our third country - Belize! We were quite sad to leave the island of Roatan, we had gotten to know everyone and actually started to feel like islanders ourselves! We were told by many there that we would be missed - ahhh Had a nice last couple of days there though, on Thursday I hired some snorkling gear (with some pink flippers!) and my boat-man friend (he's such a sweetie) took us right out deep to some coral, saw loads of different kinds of f...
