Settling Into Sayulita
Day of the Dead, a big provisioning trip, and other adventures and goings on from our second week living in Sayulita, Mexico.
Mexico
Beach of the Dead & Our Mexican Bungalow
We pay a visit to a graveyard beach and finally make the move from our temp housing to our longer-term home in Sayulita.
Surprise! You’re Homeless! First Week in Sayulita
Suddenly finding ourselves without a place to stay on arrival in Mexico, we begin an exhausting weeklong search for a home at the cusp of tourist season.
A New Chapter Begins South of the Border
Our move to Mexico is upon us! No international move would be complete without a few last hiccups to contend with…some more serious than others.
Cozumel: Island Beach Hopping and Self-Driving
Taking a day trip to drive around beautiful Isla de Cozumel for incredible snorkeling, effortless swimming, great food and cheap drinks!
Cristalino Cenote
We spend the morning snorkeling, cliff jumping, and having our feet feasted on by tiny man-eating fish in the crystal-clear waters of Cristalino cenote on the Riviera Maya.
Puerto Morelos
Taking in the stunning turquoise waters and peculiar tilting lighthouse of this sleepy Caribbean fishing village.
Cancun
We added Cancun to the itinerary to see what’s been missing in our lives all these years. The answer? Gorgeous beaches!…if you can get to them.
Chichen Itza (Izamal to Cancun)
We made a stop on our way from Izamal to Cancun to tour the ancient Maya city and UNESCO heritage site of Chichen Itza.
The “Yellow City” of Izamal
We explore the Yucatan’s charming and colorful “Yellow City,” clambering up Mayan ruins and taking in the Spanish colonial architecture, as well as the people and food of this idyllic inland pueblo.
Yucatan Trip
Our itinerary from a month of activities and travel with Lori’s parents, logging over 1,000 miles overland in Belize and Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula.
