Good morning fellow Steemians. Yesterday was a fantastic day as I went to visit my good friend and fellow Steemian @luzcypher in Playa del Carmen Mexico. I drove from Cancun about an hour south with another Steemian @donnaincancun on this mini trip.
The wonderment of this platform is amazing. Connecting people from all over the world through a myriad of topics while sreading positivity. Earlier this month I followed an individual by the name of @world-trave-pro and he is currently traveling in my neck of the woods. @world-travel-pro/travel-update-why-i-m-lovin-playa-del-carmen-mexico
So through the power of social media we all converged
I'm somewhat familiar with Playa del Carmen and I was messaged @luzcypher 's address with google maps. Some of the streets are a bit confusing to navigate then we came upon this mural...
...I looked over to @donnaincancun and said we must be close...sure enough his place was just around the corner.
Spirits were poured and a lovely meal was prepared by our host. I'm sure that the above Steemians will be posting about this and may have taken some pictures of the meetup. Eventually @world-travel-pro arrived after stating that he had been walking around in circles transfixed with the murals in the neighborhood. Everything about Steemit was chatted about. In fact I've just noticed that @luzcypher has made a post about our meetup here is the link: @luzcypher/growing-the-steemit-community-one-minnow-at-a-time-steemian-impromptu-meetup-at-my-house-in-mexico
Then I believed @donnaincancun mentioned we should all go to a cenote and everyone agreed. I've driven with donnaincancun in the past and for anyone who enjoys velocity then you are considered her perfect passenger. There are some police controlled highway checkpoints along the way but she conveniently decides not to stop at them when asked to pull over. Her remark is always the same "what are they going to do chase us on foot?" After passing that checkpoint the vehicle reached maximum speed once again and I did hear our other passengers ask her to slow down a bit. I must confess I did look over to her an retorted, "If you drive any faster we'll be going back in time."
We arrived with plenty of time to spare at a place called Cenote Azul and it a great place to chill, relax and have a bit of fun.
That's @donnaincancun
That would be me....
@world-travel-pro @luzcypher @donnaincancun
Plenty of fish which varied in spiecies black catfish, bluegills, and minnows which if you sat by the edge and dipped your feet into the water they would come up and nibble on them. It felt a bit weird and slightly tickleish.
Then donnaincancun begged me to take a video of her diving off the short platform.... adjust quality of video in youtube settings.
Well everyone was getting hungry and we started to grab our things to leave when...
We eventually found world-travel-pro and headed back to Playa del Carmen at warp speed. We eventually wound up at a place called Los Aguachiles and let me tell you that the drinks and the eats are off the charts!
I took some picks of the "Figurines" which is like a fish taco wrap. Simply amazing soooo delicious. Shrimp, tuna, mixed "ceviche" and these were healthy choices of their menu. They do regular fish tacos as well.
All told it was an amazing day and I enjoyed myself immensely. If any Steemians are heading to my neck of the woods drop a line and I'm always down for a Steemit Meetup in the Riviera Maya area. Hoping every Steemian is having a wonderful day... Excelsior!!!!!
