Dulce Vida: I

While visiting Xpu-ha, Mexico our goal was to unwind. Our only plans were to relax on the beach and enjoy local eats. It was a great success. We spent a great deal of time in our palapa reading, listening to music and drinking cerveza while the ocean breeze kept us cool.





When we felt adventurous we'd run into the warm caribbean sea and play in the waves for hours.





We'd work up a hunger and we'd drive to Playa Del Carmen or Puerto Aventuras for dinner. We enjoyed meals at our favorites like La Cueva Del Chango and El Fogon. We also found delicious Italian at Massimo. It was quite odd to order Italian dishes in Spanish. I never thought I'd enjoy Italian in Mexico, but we did. So much so we ate there twice. Once to enjoy pasta and again to sample their pizza. Both were excellent! And One lazy night we stayed at the hotel and enjoyed a wonderful meal.

La Cueva del Chango: Bean Soup, Chicken Chilaquiles and Sopes









El Fogon: Tacos Al Pastor & Margarita, and us perched above the streets of PDC.









Massimo: Mexican Pizza, Caprese and Ravioli









Al Cielo: Goat cheese stuffed peppers, tuna sashimi, catch of the day baked in salt









We enjoyed Sunrise and sunset!





... and walks on the beach













There is more to come.
