To the beach: Progreso. Traveling in the mighty “Vochito” — the little VW bug that looks like it came out of a movie. Juan Miguel was very kind to drive us to the beach.

There were many reasons to go to the beach. Let’s see… This was our day off. I was flying out tomorrow at 7:00 am. The beach was now or never. The weather was on our side. And really, who needs a reason to go to the beach?
The water was warm, though slightly murky. I also started picking up some seashells. It was always something I did, though I’m not sure why, since for sure I don’t collect them. I guess it’s just something to do.

We decided to have ourselves a nice big lunch, which included all sorts of seafood: ceviche, baby shark, stuffed shrimp, and stuffed fish. Again, we washed everything down with some beers.
