Zip-itty-Do-Da

Last night, Mike and I had a healthy dinner and walked up to the area where all the spring-breakers hang out.  It's where most of the night clubs are, so it's crazy busy with people milling about.  We saw some guy holding a large python, another with a monkey and two guys holding baby lions... it's like a circus.  We didn't drink or go into the clubs, but it was nice to be around all that energy.  Between the heat, the sun, walking a lot, working out every morning and trying not to eat everything in sight, my energy is low... I'm exhausted.  Today, we did our workout at 7 a.m., then hit the breakfast buffet.  They had every kind of frest fruit, plantains, mexican cuisine, an omelet and waffle station, a spread of meats and cheeses, another of baked goods, another of.... let's just say that it was very extensive.  We ate kind of healthy, but I treated myself with my favorite pastry, which has chocolate fudgy goodness in the center.  I will say that although I didn't stuff myself, I felt so guilty for eating a bigger meal and wanted to purge.  Oh well, I'm on vacation.  I'm heading to the pool again in a bit.  My greatest talent in life is tanning, sadly... and with being out there only a few hours so far, I am so dark.  I'll be posting a pic later today.

Tomorrow, we signed up for an excursion 45 minutes south of here almost to Tulum, called Xplor.  I've been here three other times and have done a number of the excursions already.... Tulum, Chitzen Itza, Xel-Ha, Isal Mujares, Cozumel... but Mike hasn't done any of it.  On his bucket list is to do a zip-line, so we picked Xplor because I've never been there, but there's also some caves that you swim through and 8 zip-lines, high above the jungle.  I have a fear of heights and I'm claustrophobic, so I will be pushing my limits tomorrow.  It should be fun... and you only live once.  We'll be gone 12 hours, and for $114.00, that's nothing in comparison.  They also provide you with a locker, a huge buffet on the beach and drinks.  I'm looking forward to it.  They take youre picture while you're zip-lining.... mine will probably be of me screaming though.
