Jerry and friends at the Celustún Biological Reserve (on the Gulf coast) after our boat ride on the river to see flamingos, white pelicans, a few roseate spoonbills, egrets, herons, and a big a$s crocodile. 😯😊

Always a good time together. Today's adventure was finding flamingos in Celustún, Yucatan. Rays Raymond had a fine time too.

White pelicans flying across the laguna at Celestún. They were flying faster than our boat was going, with strong, powerful wing beats.

A late breakfast with my sweetie at @marmalademerida in Merida. Delicious bacon and tomato hash with a fried egg and avocado and a waffle with fresh sweet strawberries. Good coffee and a charming wait staff.

Our view at the moment. Waiting for an umbrella drink. @laplayitabacalar. Update: 1 minute later the skies opened and we all ran inside to grab tables. Where IS that piña colada?
abaesel:
Our spot for a few nights in Bacalar. Casa Chukum, complete with two cats and a friendly dog. #bacalar #quitanaroo

These yellow flowers are a very common roadside flower in the Yucatan. Sometimes mixed with that purple flower that grows on a vining plant.

Getting ready to leave and head for Campeche. One more walk in the garden. Isn't that hibiscus stunning, the fella isn't bad either.

Rays Raymond enjoyed himself in Xpujil too. But he's ready for pitchers and catchers to report back home in Florida.

The cathedral of Campeche has stood on the Plaza Principal for over 3 centuries. #campeche

Late morning walk around the Plaza Principal in Campeche. The arched building now houses a beautiful library. @jbaesel. #campeche

On our early evening stroll along the malecon in Campeche. The well maintained malencon is about 4.5 km ling with a separate bikepath, overlooks, a few small parks, and a great view. A really nice feature of this city of about 250,000.

Ask me what's in the bag I'm holding. After dinner CHURROS from a nearby street vendor. Glad this fellow couldn't ask for a bite! Just outside the old walls of the centro historico. #campeche

Last Saturday on the Gulf coast of Campeche in the hardworking fishing town of Seybaplaya.

Me, getting ready to explore the first of four substantial structures at Hormiguera in Southern Yucatan. There was evidence of many more ruins under bushes and trees. Spectacular spot. All to ourselves.

We had a wonderful meal at Casareyna on our first night in Puebla. But what with this morning's 4am alarm and the 7000 ft elevation here, we are T.I.R.E.D. Off to early slumber.
