Mexico was a blast! Just back from a week in Huatucol, Oaxaca, MX. We had an unexpected overnighter in Houston flying out but got to see my best girlfriend and my godbabies. So cute!

Saw a ruin currently under excavation in the jungle. Preety neat. Saw a bunch of different beautifully colored birds, sea turtles, and some leaping rays (weird but true). We had one scary moment involving a bull from which we hid behind some bushes...very scary being in the middle of nowhere with a bull between us and the path. lol.

The resort was fabulous...just what we needed after our several past trips being buttkicking backpacking adventures.

PS - Continental airlines stinks as far as customer service goes.

We plan on heading back some day soon to explore more of Mexico...this time backpacking.

I'm glad you made it back alive, Twinky!

My son Henry spent 3 1/2 weeks in Cuernavacca, near Mexico City, for the winter Mini-Mester.
It was a Spanish immersion program for university credit.
They saw some pyramids and he got nicely sun-burnt.
They did a side trip to Acapulco and he got sunburnt there too.

He spent his last couple of nights at a hostel in The City.
There he met two Norwegian girls who were beginning a several month trip through Latin America.
He wanted to go with them but had to come home...........so sad.
