Tulum Mayan Ruins

on
August 9, 2021

The ancient city of Tulum is uniquely situated on the water and closed off by a limestone wall on the other three sides. Tulum was once home to 1,500 Mayans and served as the major shipping port for the much larger city of Coba. If you are in Cancun…

The ancient city of Coba once covered a 70 kilometer area and was home to over 55,000 Mayans. The archaeological zone is only about two kilometers. It consists of several areas connected by the Mayan highway and includes the second tallest temple in the Mayan world.

Coba is located approximately…

Barcelo Maya Riviera: The Trip Home

on
July 27, 2021

Good morning. I have been up for an hour now getting everything ready to go home.

I headed down to the buffet for my last Barcelo meal.

Chicken chimichangas and mushroom empanadas.

This mocha looks a lot different than the warm milk they served me the other day. And tastes more like…

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Day 8

on
July 27, 2021

Good morning! Today is my last full day at the resort.

I wonder if it rained last night. That walkway is pretty wet.

I’m taking the outdoor route to the buffet.

I got cheese empanadas and chicken flautas/taquitos. I knew those flautas/taquitos were going to be good. They were frying them up…

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Day 7

on
July 24, 2021

Good morning. I have my COVID test in three hours.

I do like the empanadas downstairs. I decided to try to be first to the empanadas today.

The thing about the empanadas is there isn’t much to the inside. The first time I had them they were cheese. The next…

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Day 6

on
July 23, 2021

Good Morning!

I decided to go to Coba Mayan ruins today. I haven’t seen Coba offered as an excursion on any of the cruises I’ve been on. I think it would be too long of a trip. This very well may be my only chance to do it. I need…

on
July 16, 2021

Good morning. It looks like the wind and waves may be under control today 

I’m making coffee in the room this morning. I’ll do a later breakfast and hang around the resort today.

I’m not sure what time the Palace stops serving breakfast but I’m going to try to get there…

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Day 4

on
July 16, 2021

Good Morning! I’m thinking about getting breakfast and heading over to Playa Del Carmen today.

I don’t believe I have shown you the never-ending hallway yet. I counted 63 rooms on the right side between my room and the area where the buffet and lobby are located. I believe it’s…

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Day 3

on
July 12, 2021

Good Morning! I want to eat breakfast and then take a little day trip to Tulum to see the Mayan ruins there. It’s about a 30 minute ride from here.

I can definitely feel the mileage I’ve put on these wheels the past couple days. They probably just need to…

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Day 2

on
July 9, 2021

Good Morning!

Since I went to bed early last night, I was up extra early today. I used that time to setup a little sunrise video here.

Here is an activity schedule for the week.

I am looking for coffee. It’s 6:50am so I figure at worst they open in 10…
