MY HUSBAND, I AND MY MOM, MY BROTHER, HIS WIFE, AND HER PARENTS ALL WENT TO YUCATAN IN 1987 OR SO. WE HAD A CRAZY PLANE TRIP FROM SAN FRANCISCO TO CANCUN. THE PLANE HAD PROBLEMS AND WE LANDED IN GUADALAJARA AIRPORT. WE SLEPT ON THE FLOOR OF THE AIRPORT. THE FLOOR WAS ISOLATED FROM THE CITY. THERE WERE FEW AMERICANS. FINALLY WE ARRIVED IN CANCUN AND RENTED A CAR. TO REACH A HOTEL. MY BROTHER'S RENTAL VAN TOOK ALL OF US TO VARIOUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES. WE ALSO WENT SWIMMING AT A NICE BEACH AND AT ISLA DE MUJERAS. WE WERE FAIRLY YOUNG AND MY MOM GOT SICK PROBABLY FROM THE WATER. LORI'S FATHER WAS NOT FEELING WELL EITHER.
WE VISITED VARIOUS SITES SUCH AS TULUM, COBA, AND UXMAL. I ENJOYED TULUM THE MOST AS IT WAS SITUATED ON THE PACIFIC OCEAN. MY MOM WAS IN HER 70'S AND WE ENCOURAGED HER TO GO TO COBA TO SEE SOME STELLA. AND THE PYRAMIDS AS WELL. THE OCEAN WAS BEAUTIFUL AND WE SAW MANY SEA TURTLES IN THE OCEAN .
MY HUSBAND WAS WITH ME WHEN I GOT SICK AT UXMAL WHERE SOME ARCHAEOLOGISTSWERE EXCAVATING. I HAD TO GETA SHOTAT A PHARMACY FOR MOCTOZUMA'S REVENGE. AFTER A FEW DAYS I WAS BETTER. WE LEARNED NOT TO DRINK THE TAP WATER.
ONCE WE LEFT OUR FAMILY, MY HUSBAND, AND I TOOK ANOTHER PLANE TO CHICHEN ITZA AND STAYED AT THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL CABINS. IT WAS SUCH A HUGE RUINS THAT IT TOOK US SEVERAL DAYS TO CHECK OUT ALL THAT WAS THERE. I WAS SURE THAT THERE WERE NO ARCHAEOLOGICAL TOURS IN THE AREA. WE ALL HAD A GOOD TIME.
