It is my seventh day on my trip and I am waiting at the train station for a bus that will take me to the Panama canal, where a ferry is waiting. The last week has been amazing! To the left is a picture of the beach in back of my hotel in Mexico. It is so beautiful! On my second day of my trip, I toured Mexico City, which is a little less than 300 miles from my hotel, and even picked up some Espanol! I bought a cute, little salad boll and matching salad tongs in a farmers market, and a blue sombrero from a local shop. Day three and four, I spent the day sight seeing! I saw the Sierra Madre Occidental and got so great pictures. I also got to climb up an ancient Mayan ruin, on the Yucatan peninsula. I spent the fifth and sixth day at the hotel's private beach on the Pacific coast. I spent some time scuba diving at a reef with my scuba diving instructor, Carmen, who has turned out to be an awesome friend! I loved diving! I even got to pet a stingray and this huge fish! I saw all kinds of tropical fish and took some cool underwater pictures with my water-proof, digital camera, which cost under 15 American dollars, thanks to Carmen's generous hotel employee discount. I'll post a few photos after I figure out how to work this camera! They are interesting. There's even one Carmen took of me with the huge fish! So, anyway, I am now currently waiting for the bus. I think something happened to it, but a local said this happens a lot. I just got off the train about ten minutes ago. The train took me from Mexico City all the way down to Costa Rica! Oop, I have to go! I better grab something to eat before I get on the bus, since they didn't have any food on the train. Well, except live chickens.
I am touring Central America, the Carribean, and South America for a whole month. There is so much to see and so little time...Day 1I just recently got off the plane. I flew into the Mexico City Aeropuerto (Mexico City Airport), and am now I'm in a taxi heding to the hotel. It is so amaizing here. Everything is so beautiful, but it is really, really hot!
