Adios Mexico!

I’ve been vacationing SO hard (ya know… lounging around) that I don’t even know where I left off... Oh yes, the last couple of days in Mexico City… unfortunately were uneventful; Ramen, laundry and spray tans (BTW not easy to find…); thanks Metro Boutique Hostal for allowing Aloha Baby mobile tanning to come to us! Highly recommend both of these! Was the spray tan the best one i’ve ever had? No…BUT it was like the only one we could find in Mexico City and they technician was SO nice…and they have worked with Paris Hilton, so we are basically on her level…

Armed with a load of clean clothes and a couple streaky spray tans later, we arrived in Riviera Maya for the Crash My Playa (CMP) 5thyear fiesta. This was my third year going, and it did not disappoint! If you love country music and Mexico, then there is no better event for you… unlimited mediocre food (it is an all-inclusive after all), endless alcohol, pool parties with Dustin lynch and Luke Bryan, and of course 4 nights of amazing music; all on the beaches of Mexico. Tickets go on sale usually in April… You’re welcome!

After CMP commenced, a few days of R&R were in order; so we headed to Tulum for some relaxing days at the cenotes and a few too many margaritas at the beautiful Mezzanine hotel and restaurant with the most amazing beach views.  Just to clarify though, the hotel itself is way out of our budget, and the restaurant probably was too, but ya know, fancy hotel or 2 for 1 margaritas…it was a no brainer! So where did we stay? Hostel Sheck… in a 20+ bed mixed dorm; it did the trick and also came with a super cute pup for me! What more could I ask for? 

            Fresh juice or a smoothie maybe? Pizza? Tulum has all essentials for anyone really; budget lodging, luxury lodging, street food and fancy restaurants…packed full of plenty of tourists.  As we sipped on our margaritas at Mezzanine, we met a lovely couple from London; they were a wealth of information; not only did they recommend a spot for next year instead of Tulum, but also gave us our first Belizan currency! Thank Sonny and Mira! A few too many margs and another lovely political discussion over The Wall,  it was time for these travelers to again hit the road! Unfortunately for Tulum, I don’t think we will be back, there’s just too much of this big world to see…like Belize for instance…
