I think being a grown up means cleaning your bong before a long trip so you can take a super freshie when you finally get home. I guess I'm grown up now.
What an adventure getting home. I'm wiped out. My last 2 days in Tulum were spent editing photos, counting bracelets, and eating way more than necessary. On my way to Cancun yesterday, I stopped in Playa Del Carmen for another killer 60 minute massage for $30. I realized when I reached Playa that I had forgotten to pick up my laundry from Bo Laundry. So after the epic rub down I drove back to Tulum and then back to Playa for lunch at Las Hijas de la Tostada. 3 hours in the car already and it was only 1pm. Lunch was delicious, and I made it to Cancun about 330. I knew that Mercado 28 would be shutting down soon, and I had about 750 pesos left so decided to go buy as many rainbow and rasta colored bracelets as I could find. I had lots of fun shopping with the ladies who are mobile vending the bracelets, and of course stopped by to say hola to Lucy and Pao. We were all very sad to maybe not see eachother again for a long time. But I have their numbers so I plan to message them just to say hola and check in on them. I spent my last night in Cancun at Nomads hostel. It was nice, the beds are a little creaky when someone on a top bunk moves, and the A/C in my room didn't work very well, and alot of the light bulbs needed to be changed so the room was pretty dimly lit but I like a bright room so I can see how dirty or clean it is. I was basically counting bracelets in the dark, which is fine. I also didn't spend much time at the hostel at all. By the time I left Mercado 28, it was about 6pm and I wanted to get dinner someplace scrumptious. I had been craving Thai food pretty constantly and took myself to the hotel zone and ate at Sasi Thai. It was ok at best but the mango margarita drink special was top notch. By the time I finished my meal and got in the car, it felt like I could just sleep there in the driver's seat. But I drove myself home, smoked on the patio outside the room, and went to sleep pretty immediately.
This morning I was woken by the creaky guy above me moving around. I really needed to sleep longer.Read more
