• Tulum

    November 15, 2022 in Mexico ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    Highlights:
    - Rented bikes from the hostel and cycled to the beach (Playa Paraiso) and chilled and swam in the sea
    - Went to Tulum ruins for the last hour and a half it was open. Beautiful views of the sea with the ruins, and saw lizards, iguanas and a couple of coatis!
    - Going to Coba and cycling through the ruins there - cool to go through the jungle and we saw a small snake and some monkeys!
    - Cycling to another cenote at Coba - this was a dark cave with a 5m and 10m diving board. Josh did the 10m, Serena only managed the 5m one but still scary!

    Lowlights:
    - Having to get a taxi back from Coba as the bus didn't turn up - but we clubbed together with others waiting so it wasn't too bad!

    Food and drinks:
    - Burgers from Bella Ciao (our first not very traditional meal in Mexico!) - tasted amazing and the mojito and homemade lemonade were great too
    - Burritos at Burrito Amor - Serena had pork and pineapple in a coconut tortilla and Josh had chicken. We went back for breakfast burritos the next day because they were so good!
