CANCUN, MEXICO - DOLPHIN SWIM & ISLA MUJERES

Cancun, day 4

I booked the dolphin interactive swim the night before after much hagging with "The dolphin man". It was a bit difficult to get up relatively early 9 am, as I had to be at the Aquarium for something like 10:30 and it's a good 45 minutes on the bus to get to where I needed to go in hotel zone. I jumped onto the R1 bus, this time a lot more confident then last, with my map and got off at Kukuclan Plaza, the place the tour guy had pointed at on the map.

Cancun, Day 2

I decided I wanted to go down to the famous Hotel Zone so I could hit the beach. This is what people picture when they think of Cancun. Cancun is pretty much split into two areas, downtown Cancun where the locals and workers live and then Hotel Zone where all the vacations go. Obviously they would never put a hostel in "hotel zone", so I got to stay downtown, which I loved because i was among the people and it felt authentic.
