Adios Mexico!

Today is our last day in Mexico and brings to an end our time in the first of the thirteen countries we are visiting. I am going to miss Mexico because I have really enjoyed my time here but I am also looking forward to visiting a new country. I thought I might do a little review of each country I visit as I travel through them with a few of my favourite things and not so favourite things mentioned. Here goes my Mexico review...
Favourite Memories;
+ Visiting all the amazing Mayan ruins. I have wanted to do that since I was in primary school so it has been a dream come true.
+ Seeing, and staying in the city of Valladolid. It was exactly what I thought Mexico would be like with the music, people, buildings and food. The attached photo is from my favourite meal in Mexico, eaten in Valladolid. They are called quesadillas.
+ Sending a package home from Merida. This might sound pretty dull but when the people in the Post Office speak no English and we speak very poor Spanish it made for quite an interesting and fun experience. Our box ended up having 30 stamps literally PVA-glued on to it and we have no idea if it will ever make it back!
Not So Favourite Memories;
- Getting ill. Obviously.
- Travelling to a local Mexican Premier League football game and finding out there are no tickets left. Gutted! I still have plans to watch some live football in other countries though that I hope are more successful.
This afternoon we leave for Peru and have a connecting flight. That means we land at another airport before we get to Peru and change planes to get on one going to where we want to go. This obviously increases the chances of our luggage getting lost so fingers crossed that on my next entry I am still in possession of all my belongings!
