Bam! We woke up early this morning to find the Pacific Ocean laid out in front of us. This house is awesome. After a leisurely breakfast of a double batch of bisquik pancakes for everyone and a dip in the pool we motivated and descended down the hill to the beach. The beach is pretty rocky below the house, but we walked up the way to Playa Carmen. It was kind of rocky/sandy. We got a little bodysurfing in and then ate at a restaurant called Caracolas, which means snails, on the edge of the beach. We are finally feeling like we are at the beach and chilling. Pictures are coming.
Today we started the day very early - we are two hours later here and were the first ones to breakfast! We had beautiful breakfasts with a beautiful view of the lake, and left afterwards. Aunt Les was able to somehow pre-download a map on her phone and we had a much better time navigating, but that didn’t mean that the roads were easy to drive on. We were doing fine until we got to a steep incline riddled with deep, gaping potholes, but we gritted our teeth and bumped past them, thanks to our driver extraordinaire. We took the boys to the lake to fish, and the girls went on our way to the butterfly sanctuary. We stopped at another one way bridge to take a picture of the river, only to return to our car and realize that our bumper was missing! We immediately turned around to retrace our steps and were all leaning out of the car looking for our bumper. We joked that we weren’t going to get to learn scientific names for butterflies, instead we would be looking for the rare bumpericus late...
