Cozumel Part 1

I know I’ve been a little down lately, and I apologize for that. I wanted to go into detail about our trip so that you could be prepared if you would like to visit Cozumel.

First thing you should know is we chose Cozumel, because of the fact it was…easy. Flight wasn’t long. Mexico is easy to get in and out of. there is no longer Covid negative tests to get back into the country. Flights weren’t being cancelled right and left like the poor people trying to get to Europe..

Wanted to let you know about our excursions first…and then where we stayed. I do not recommend where we stayed in the least. But more on that on another day….here are my daughter and my top two favorite things we did.

May I also offer some caution. I found it easier to pay with pesos, even though they will accept American currency…but for me, pesos were easier because I could figure out the change back situation much easier in my head than constantly trying to do it in my head. Also, we drank only bottled water and only had ice in our glasses from our resort and those that filtered their water…

Mexican people are very friendly and they are not offended by us asking…

Another thing to keep in mind is most places (this was not the case at our resort) you cannot flush toilet paper…must be put in trash can.

Also, everywhere you go you need to tip…use the public restroom…tip…just easier to have 20 pesos (which is an American dollar) with you always…

Now for the good stuff. We went in July which is not ideal…but we wanted to get away…and Mexico provides a nice getaway.

We decided to go to the choléate factory where we learned how chocolate was made and then made it ourselves…we had an amazing teacher and the whole process was a blast..we were required to wear masks during this whole process but honestly…we didn’t mind and we so loved it!
