Just back from Mazunte's turtle reserve so I figured a blog is in order before I nap and decide whether or not I'll go out tonight.
The Hurricane party was a remembrance of Carlotta from last year. Held at Brad's split coconut bar. Bar name is fitting since the hurricane nearly killed brad haha! There was a live band covering Led Zeppelin tunes....but they sucked! So I didnt hang out long and wound up wandering towards home slowly where I ran into a local teacher I'd seen earlier at Brad's. She invited me to sit down and listen to the Latin band playing so I did for a bit until at midnight we shuffled to another spot where I strangely found my pasty white a** dancing....haha.
Ok so this morning I woke at 445am to ready myself for the lunchbox trip to Mazunte. As I entered the main palapa, the usual suspects were still partying from the night before! I am glad I'm too old to pull off crap like that anymore. An uneventful trip down although I arrived wayyyyyy too early so I found a little restaurant got to know the owner and she and
her husband fed me eggs and ham black beans and rice tortillas and juice and 3 beers for 30......yes 30 pesos!!!!! Had a fun chat session till the reserve opened then I shuffled on over to buy a ticket in. All told it was small and not very impressive but still worth the 27 peso entrance fee. (pictures to follow). So as it's 5 pm here and I've been up 12 hours and I'll be worthless should I decide to go out if I don't get rest, I'll post and annotate pictures and go shower and visit my hammock.
Hasta pronto a todos
