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.
