My Mexico Pictures Playa Del Carmen






I have so many wonderful pictures of this paradise, and of mayan ruins. It was so difficult to decide which ones to put on this page. I may change the pictures from time to time so I can share the others with you.


The beaches and ocean were fantastic here...we swam in the ocean every day



Shark!!







one of the few pictures I allowed myself to be in (I was usually on the other side of the camera) this is just after we went snorkling on the coral reefs off of cozumel



the town of playa del carmen, wonderful place, wonderful people!



our favorite place to stop for nachos when we went to town



view from the top of a pyramid in Coba



excavations on this huge site is ongoing, this is another pyramid with a maya stilo protected by the thatched enclosure



this beautiful woman was the wife of our mayan guide in Punta Laguna. They graciously invited us into their home to see what traditional maya life was like.



she cooks tortillas on this hearth



this is a mayan cross where they pray to the god for rain. The cross is bound and not nailed, because they believe that nailing the cross would kill the spirit
