these days see us hanging out on a gorgeous white sand beach near Tulum, Mexico...
For my part, I am doing yoga, writing, reading and finding bliss between the still-lingering jungle, hidden cenote at the tent camp where we are staying and the ocean surf.
Om.....
Seriously. A view from a short walk away from the tent where we are staying, lulled to sleep each night by the sound of wind in the trees and the ocean surf.
This is a truly awesome area where we are encountering all sorts of wise and spiritually engaged Canadian 'refugees' who seem for the most part to be hiding out from how corporatized and materialistic they see their country becoming...
I am not quite so ready to permanently leave beautiful Canada but for now, hanging out here will surely do.
We have a sand engineer with us who is creating architectural delights on the beach every day.
The cenote is a sacred deep well of water long revered by the Mayan people. Here is a sunset shot taken on the secret cenote beside our tent camp.
Before we got to Tulum, we travelled through Lima, Miami (South Beach) and Cancun to get here. I enjoyed South Beach the most. It was fun to immerse ourselves in the Art Deco vibe of the place and the interesting classic Hollywood (and gangster) history dating back to the 1930s. Although expensive it was just fun, especially after many lengthy bumpy bus rides through Bolivia and Peru.
Here is one of the hotels on Ocean Drive in Miami. I enjoyed doing some artsy photography of these intriguing buildings all with stories to tell.
There is something called 'travel weariness' which can set in with jumping on so many buses and planes and staying in so many different places, and although we are loving and learning so much from our travels, we are also realizing the beauty of staying put and relaxing in a beautiful place for a while, so for now, here we are.....
