17.05.06. Cancún a Izamal

Here is the welcome home picture I did not take last night since we got home so late from the airport.  
Claudia con su madre Lupita y yo.
 
I went with Claudia to the beach first thing this morning
 
because she is taking a Polynesian dance class and had a practice event before it got too hot.
 
This afternoon we drove two hours west to   
 
where we had freshly made tortillas 
 
and agua Chaya 
 
with our traditional Mayan cuisine dinner. Some late afternoon shopping ( I actually bought something!) for local artisan wares made of natural fibers 
 
from the henequen plant ( same plant from which we also get tequila).
 
and a tour of the Monestery built in 1500's on ancient Mayan ruins
 
came next.  The town and historic area is small and easy to to return to our hotel
  to relax for a while before the evening light show on the Izamal Monestery walls
