Flavor from la Playa Maya

hola! yes we are sitting at el Bar Cubano with mojitos and cervesas in hand. why are we in Cuba while in Mexico?? because very cool french guy with Cuban lady here has wireless internet!!!! yeah........life is too good. today...swiming in the cenote(natural well). yesterday..... a carribean beach for us alone. tomorrow......whatever gift is delivered to us.

the Yucatan is a magik place. where essenses of Mexico colide with the island tropics. colorful. carribean. coquettish.
for my eyes, my ears, my nose--everything is new. i want to post, to say hi, but i don't want to write, to think-- only to live--in this moment.

we were at El Centote Escondito. swimming. relaxing. and enjoying the chatter of the beautiful Mexican familia next to us. warm and comical they were. water so bloody fresh and clear you can see through it like a glass door. in the state of Quintana Roo, couple hours south of the terribly outrageous Cancun. La Maya Riviera. paradiso. dream. alive. where swimming is not so much a pastime as a necesity. lovely wet life! El Mar Caribe(the carribean). where the aqua sea tangos with el sol bleached sand. and brown bodies splash the landscape. as my own skin grows darker my heart lighter. the heat and sun saturate my brain-- removinmg all thoughts, hopes, expectations, desires--except to breath in this moment. life is good.....so very damn good. we are in paradiso. alive. can't imagine life other than we are living it. warm hugs from Mexico. --Mary
