Day 18 Oct 21 2026 Merida Mexico

This was our first full day in Mérida. We started the morning by meeting Ernesto for breakfast. Afterward, we visited Dzibilchaltún. The last time I was there, visitors were still allowed to climb the pyramids and swim in the cenote. Those days are gone. The Mexican government had to crack down because a small number of tourists were either ignorant, stupid, or both, and were damaging the ruins. As usual, a few people ruined it for everyone else.

On the way back to the hotel, we stopped at La Gran Plaza and then visited a beauty salon because Evy had decided it was time to take care of her "hairy legs."

In the evening, we headed downtown for a walk around the historic center of Mérida. We finished the day with marquesitas and sorbete, two of our favorite local treats, before calling it a night.


YEP, WE ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE!
