Music and messages over the loud speaker again but today I was wide awake and annoyed before 6:30am. And I thought the "big voice" on military bases was invasive. Wonder what I'd say if I decide to review this hotel? Let's just go back to the beach... but first, let's look at the cenote here in town and a few other sites. Didn't we see some ruins right down by the church?
A priority stop today was the ATM in Vallodolid. Roaming around the town we found a cute little restaurant at another cenote. The traditional food was good and the scenery was fabulous. This morning I chose huevos motulenos, another Yucatan favorite -- kind of like a breakfast chalupa -- fried eggs on tortilla chips that have been topped with refried beans. The whole thing is then topped with a tomato sauce and garnished with ham and peas.
Next stop was El Cuyo. This is a sleepy little town on the northern shore of the Yucatan. The water is fabulously clear here. We can tell that we are closer and closer to the Caribbean. We looked at a hotel on line that looked interesting -- cabanas right on the beach. But, when we looked at them, we were not too impressed. We looked around town and made a few calls following up on "se renta" signs. I looked at one house with a lady while Justin was on the phone with a gentleman who sent his representative to meet us at another venue. The guy who came had a huge ring of keys and took us to four different properties. Nothing really suited our fancy and as we were pulling away, we stopped and talked to a guy in the neighborhood. He connected us with the kite sailing school where he works which is right on the beach and the cabanas they have there. We decided to stay here for three nights. No AC, no wi fi, no tv but we are right on the beach. This is very secluded and magnificent. I am listening to the waves crash as I write. It is a hardship.
