Viva la Mexico

Mexico in January...how can you go wrong! Michigan sucks...it is freezing and we haven't seen the sun in months. To spend it with our Louisiana friends, Forest and Ang made it even better. A four day escape in the sun. Cancun is one of my top three favorite places. The locals are friendly, you feel safe, the food is amazing and the ocean is heaven.





The Mayan Ruins were amazing...pictures can not do justice to what we saw. I learned that the world is not going to end in in 2012, it was an honor for you to sacrifice yourself to the Gods and the men competed for the right to sacrifice themselves, I also learned that no woman would sacrifice herself in her right mind so they fed her a cocaine like drug and then threw her into the sinkhole...and lastly that the Mayan civilization was basically wiped out when they killed the four people that knew everything. I also learned that these people are little and Forest and Ang looked like giants next to them...Tony spent the day walking up to everyone of them he could and would look down at them like "Hey". We tried to bring one of the little girls home with us...because she was the best salesperson I have ever seen, definitely would not take "no" for an answer and she was sooooo adorable.
If you get a chance put on your bucket list to go see Chichen Itza...an amazing day!
More pictures from Mexico to follow...

  1. Great snaps! We loved Chichen Itza when we visted several years ago. Have you been to Uxmal? Also amazing!
