 I'm Back!!!!!!!!!!! And we had a terrific holiday. :biggrin: Someone had asked me to list the hi-lites of the Mayan Riviera because they were going soon (Fishoholic? was it you Laurie?) We stayed at the Barcelo Maya Tropical (all-inclusive resort), which is a little over an hour drive south of Cancun. Very nice place. Beautiful, 2.5 km long beach, nice room, excellent food and facilities. I have to agree with it's 5- star rating and highly recommend it. Some of the excursions we went on were: -Tulum where we saw some of the Mayan ruins. (I give it a 2 thumbs up) -Playa del Carmen for shopping, site-seeing, etc. (3 thumbs up) -Xel-Ha, which is a beautiful park containing a huge lagoon where a fresh water river mixes with the salt water from the ocean. The snorkling was very good here; lots of fishes to see. We also went down the river on inner-tubes which was kind of boring except for the part where my wife got her butt stuck in the tube.:mrgreen: and I convinced her to abandon the tubes half way down the river and hike through the jungle where we got lost and finally came out to a place where we had to swim half-a-mile to get back. :redface: (expensive, but a nice place: 3 thumbs up) -Xplor Adventure Park where we rode the zip-lines and I scared the living **** out of myself. We also drove amphibious all-terrain vehicles, and swam down an underground river through caves full of stalactites and stalagmites. (I rate Xplor a 3 thumbs up) -Xcaret Eco Theme Park which was my favourite excursion: great snorkling, river raft rides, animal exhibits, marine aquarium, and a nighttime show in a large theater. (I give it 4 thumbs up) We took lots of pictures including underwater pics from our snorkling and diving. I will post some in the next couple of days. |
