Isla Mujeres

Cec and I came to Isla Mujeres yesterday and have spent the day sunning ourselves and eating lots of tacos. I must say that I am a bit disappointed with how touristy this island is. Really I should expect it by now. At the very least it is a very laid back place with little harassment from the local vendors. However, I will be glad to leave tomorrow.
Tomorrow we head for Tullum - the Mayan ruins on the water. Probably won´t be able to escape the tourist scene just yet, but we are working our way away from the worst of it. It looks like our travel plans take us down to the very south of the Yucatan peninsula (Caribbean coast) close to Belize and then back north on the Gulf coast side. Hoping to find some jungle hut away from the masses!
