Mexico is a traveler's paradise, crammed with a multitude of opposing identities: desert landscapes, snow-capped volcanoes, ancient ruins, teeming industrialized cities, time-warped colonial towns, glitzy resorts, deserted beaches and a world-beating collection of flora and fauna. This mix of modern and traditional, clichéd and surreal, is the key to Mexico's charm, whether your passion is throwing back margaritas, listening to howler monkeys, surfing the Mexican Pipeline, scrambling over Mayan ruins or expanding your collection of posable Day of the Dead skeletons.

Our last few days in the land of the taco

Sat, 24 Dec 2011 | By piratepete | Views [128]

It's now our last night in Mexico. So many tacos in the last 3 weeks. So many mouth burning, delicious tacos! After two nights in Cancún with the most beautiful, clear blue water I've ever seen, we headed to Playa del Carmen. Oh my dear god. It was ... Read more >

Flamingoes, Frenchies & Field Trips

Mon, 19 Dec 2011 | By piratepete | Views [114]

Hola amigos! It's been a while since the last update because we have been too busy doing everything! We're now in Cancun, but I'll get to that later. Firstly, I think it needs to be said that Australians (and I'm talking incredibly generally here) are ... Read more >

Mountain High to Jungle Boogie

Wed, 14 Dec 2011 | By doodledawn | Views [125]

The last 48 hours have been some of the most interesting of my life, but I better back up a bit.  Last I wrote, I was on a night bus heading west... After the 9 hour bus ride tuned into a 13 hour bus ride, Kia and I arrived in San Cristobal on Thursday ... Read more >

Meet Beardy

Tue, 13 Dec 2011 | By piratepete | Views [138]

I would like to introduce everyone to Beardy. Jeff's beard has decided to tag along for a little while. And is apparently a seperate entity to Jeff. When I asked Jeff what he did on the flight to LA, his response was "grew a beard". He also ... Read more >

Here Be Pirates

Fri, 9 Dec 2011 | By doodledawn | Views [82]

Campeche! I only knew the name from an old video game I had about pirates, but it turns out that it was a rather appropriate association.  The town was quite the target for privateers and the like during the 1600s; so much so that they build a huge wall ... Read more >

Zocola and German Engineering Part 2

Thu, 8 Dec 2011 | By doodledawn | Views [110]

So where was I?  Right, so Kia and I met a German named Andi in the hostel and we hatched a plan to check out some mayan ruins along the Ruta Puuc via car rental since the bus route was bit of a pain in the ass.  We ended up with a blue VW beatle because ... Read more >

A little more Mexico city and 13 hours on a bus

Wed, 7 Dec 2011 | By piratepete | Views [109]

    Forgive any bad spelling, puncuation and excessive letters or spaces, I'm writing this from a pretty dodgy internet cafe where the keyboard hates me (and is  Spanish so lighten up) in San Cristobal. Taking a laptop with you is incredibly convienient.... Read more >

Zocola and German Engineering

Wed, 7 Dec 2011 | By doodledawn | Views [109]

Ahh, Merida.  The main transportation hub of the western Yucatan, I had high hopes for the place.  The bus dropped me off way in the south, and I had no idea where I was, so I wandered for about an hour before I found the travellers salvation, the ... Read more >

Mmmmmmmexico City!

Sun, 4 Dec 2011 | By piratepete | Views [132]

Mexico!! I'll try to start from the beginning. The plane ride that is. Peta and lack of sleep and food is not a good Peta. Because we had to get up at 3:30am to get to the airport and whatnot, we only got to have about .7 of a breakfast. We'd gotten ... Read more >

Road to Ruins

Sat, 3 Dec 2011 | By doodledawn | Views [140]

So other than my drunken post at the beginning of the trip, I have been a bit lax on the blog front.  Apologies!  I just got into Merida and realized I forgot my map, so went wandering in search of internet.  I found this lovely umm...cafe a few blocks ... Read more >

Donde esta el Walmart

Tue, 29 Nov 2011 | By doodledawn | Views [136]

So, I request some apologies as I am writing this drunk and in the dark.  I am in Playa del Carmen and in the last 12 hours have found and used the services of a mexican walmart, muddled my way through a spanish keyboard, inadvertantly flirted and been ... Read more >

Blue People and Bugs in My Food!

Mon, 28 Nov 2011 | By jrbrink | Views [111]

I am discovering more and more how adventure is found in the small things in life. Having more free time has allowed me to approach life more inquisitively. Example #1: I've been eating a lot of dates (the food, not men, haha) lately and have actually ... Read more >
