Plans for Mexico

So found a condo in Playa del Carmen for the month of January... subletting a bedroom with private bathroom and use of the house and condo pool. We are renting from a fellow who happens to be an Albertan. Small world. He is also a scuba diving instructor. So it will be interesting to share his space. Now I need to find a school for Lisle to take his Spanish classes... not sure what I will do with my time but I am sure I'll keep busy enough hanging around the pool, studying Spanish on my computer and using the wifi. The condo is only 5 blocks from the beach and snorkeling opportunities are supposed to be easily found.

We also have booked March in Merida. Found a small apartment at the back of a Canadian couple's property... will share their pool too but still have some privacy with our own little patio. They are located in a Mexican neighborhood without expats so that will be a new experience for us too.

We will be cooking our own food and spending as little as possible. We will be using our two feet and a heart beat to get around except when we use the public bus systems. We didn't intended to rent from Canadians ..... but so far it seems to have worked out that way. I am sure it will also be nice to have that in common. We tend to be friendly folks.

So February so far is a flexible month for us to play more by ear as to where to go and where to stay. . Ahhh adventures.
