It wa a Ruin Kinda Day

 The weather has gotten a little chilly.  Not the great warm Caribbean weather we are used to.  

Man we got up super early to get on our private shuttle.  Art made arrangements for us to go to Chichen Itza with a private tour company so it was just the four of us. So it was worth getting up early.  It was great not having to go on a tour bus.  We had a great tour guide….. Dulce.  She was fun and very informative.  We got there before the big tour buses arrived.  That was also great.  We could go at our own pace and stop whenever we wanted.  As we were finishing up the buses arrived and there were people everywhere.   It was interesting, when we got there, there was a very long line of folks with carts and totes waiting to get in.  We discovered it was vendors.  Everywhere you went and every path you took it was completely lined with vendors.  It was crazy.  They set up and take down every single day.  I couldn’t believe it.  Art and I had been to the ruins before and I must say they are still awesome and I am so glad we went.  There is always a certain reverence to me when I am on the ruins grounds.

We were tired when we got back,  Everyone laid down for a quick rest.  Trixie and I went to the sweet shop.  I ate way too many sweets yesterday.  I am sure my blood sugars were way too high but it was sure good.

Dinner was an experience,  We went to an outdoor restaurant and it was cold.  Not only that to add insult to injury, the wind was blowing 30 mph…. truly Art looked it up.  And it look forever to get our food.  After we went back to our room to watch college football  and we all wrapped up in the hotel robes to warm up.  Oh they are so warm and comfy.  Trixie and the Coonster ordered hot chocolate and Art and I went to the sweet shop.  Sadly I think the hot chocolate had gluten as Trixie is now sick.  I feel so bad for her …..hope she feels better soon.   We were going to go to the market today but we’ll wait til Trixie is better.  Probably no beach this morning it is pretty chilly.

Stay tuned to see what we end up doing today and how Trixie is doing………….
