Cancun-day 6

Up early today. We went to the lobby bar so Don could gt some coffee and we waited until the restaurant opened. It didn't open until 7:00. We had a fast but yummy breakfast. At 7: 30 we got on the bus to go to Coba. Coba is a Mayan Ruin that is only about 20% uncovered. We went to it the last time we were here. It is always so amazing to see these cities and try to imagine what it was like for the people who lived there. The ruin or city is located in the jungle. It was pretty hot and muggy and the walk to the main temple is about 2 kl. We decided to take the bike taxi back. The breeze from that felt so good and besides that it was just fun. It was a 2 1/2 hour bus ride to Coba and we stopped along the way at a shopping place. We also went back and had lunch there. Dan bought a nice letter opener there. We got back to the hotel in time to order and enjoy chips and guacamole then head off to dinner. We had steak by the pool. No that isn't a type of steak. We ate steak and our table was by the swimming pool. After dinner, Don and Shawna went to the Italian restaurant for Mexican coffee. Dan and I went to the lobby bar and played janga. I am not sure how you spell it but it is a game where you have a tower of blocks and you try to remove a block one at a time without knocking the tower over. It was fun. Then we went to the show. It was different dancers than the last time and they were good as well. After, the lady in front of us had a little too much to drink. She was goofing around and tripped over the stage and fell backwards spilling her drink on Dan and Shawna. Yikes, some people shouldn't drink and she is definitely on of them. Good thing she didn't hurt. Then off to bed. Tomorrow.......another massage. Aaaahhhhh.
