By Land or by Sea - Bus to Cancun, Yellow Submarine

By the time we got back to the bus to head back to Cancun (2 hour trip), we were all hot and very thirsty. That open bar was very welcome! Karen drank Tequilas and Sprite and I stuck to beer. Once again we had a great time with our new best friends Herman and Ann.

Once we got back to our room, we decided to go try out a Thai restaurant that was highly recommended. So, back on the public bus to La Isla, a mall on the hotel strip a few miles away. The food was excellente! There were all these little walkways that went out over the lagoon with a private palapa at the end where you could sit and dine. Unfortunately we didn't have a reservation and the wait was too long for a table over the water.....NEXT time.

Waiting for the public bus to go back to our room, there were a group of people from Cleveland with us who had been partying it up. A guitar strumming honcho again joined us all on the bus, and the Cleveland folks tipped him to play and sing Yellow Submarine. Since we'd all had more than a few alcoholic beverages that day it didn't take long before ALL of us were shouting "WE ALL LIVE ON A YELLOW SUBMARINE! YELLOW SUBMARINE! YELLOW SUBMARINE!!!!" Too funny, and a great end to the evening.

Tomorrow, we plan to get in some serious beach time and watch the Mexican Shopping Network and party Carribean style.
