I'm a bit sad about leaving Mexico. Who wouldn't be, sun, sand, heat, and not many obligations!
But I'm slowly getting ready in my mind.
In the meantime, I'm enjoying the last few days. I'm still doing lots of schoolwork every day. But I'm also walking around, swimming, and generally enjoying the atmosphere.
Yesterday, the water was especially nice for a swim, visibility was probably about 20 feet. A nice treat! Cause it's usually only about 3 feet. I'm definitely going to try swim again these last couple of days.
Today, on my way to the grocery store, I went into a fabric store. They have such amazing stuff! So many fancy sparkly shimmery fabrics in such pretty colours! I bought something more practical though - 3 meters of t-shirt type fabric in grey and purple. I want to make 2 sundresses with it.
Last year, I bought 2 really fun sundresses at a cute little store here in Playa del Carmen. I was so excited to go back to the same place to buy another in the same-ish style. But nope! They had a few that were fun. But they were $100 each! The fabric I bought? A total of about $2.80 for all of it! Yeah! Now I just have to make the time to sew when I get home.

2 - There are lots of very fun and funky "beach cruiser" bicycles around here. This one was especially fun looking. I want one!
3 - some of the beautiful fabrics in the stores. They are much prettier in person.4 - The local burger palace. Yes, the chairs are on the sidewalk and the whole restaurant is about the same size as a large clothes closet. Missing in the photo are the local dogs - Jackie and Pancho.
