Photo Of The Day: Taking A Cenote Swim

They were swimming and splashing and many of them were sitting along the edge, dangling their feet in the water.

Photo Of The Day: Mosquito Net

Waking up at 6:30 in the morning this is the first thing I see when I open my eyes.

Photo Of The Day: Cabana Chairs On The Beach

The empty chairs sat around the beach, seemingly at random, but not really as unmethodical as they seemed.

Photo Of The Day: The Ghost Of Tulum

The ghost peered out the door and across the ruins at me. I saw him from many different spots as I snaked my way through the site.

Photo Of The Day: Tulum Touristas

Photo Of The Day: Textured Wall In Valladolid

My fascination with walls continue.

Photo Of The Day: Merida Waiting Room

Photo Of The Day: Bullfight Posters In Merida

The only thing that had ever seemed to change here were the bullfight posters layered one upon the other.

Photo Of The Day: Palapa Roof

Photo Of The Day: Painting In The Temple Of The Frescoes

One of the hard things to do when traveling through archaeological sites is imagining the artwork that was there.
