Hello yet again,

So its about my 3rd day in Cancun, funny sort of place. Not at all what I was expecting. I guess i was expecting big long beach, a few bars close by, nice.

Uh uh.....Along the "hotel zone" which is where the beach is......its just gigantic hotel after gigantic hotel...bit like Siem Reap was but on a massive scale.....if the giant hotel isnt finished its under construction. And im staying "downtown" where there is no beach...its only a 5 minute bus ride though, but its like the local cancun, not the touristy part. Its not as bad as i initially thought..but still not exactly what i was looking for.

So not sure what im going to do.... was talking to fellow backpacker Mags here in the hostel, and shes tipped me off to a place a little further down the coast called Playa del Carmen, which really sounds like more of what im after....like this but much more friendly and on a much smaller scale...so i think i might head down there a little later in the week.

Just for evrybodys info....ive lost my phone charger, so my phones just about shagged and i cant charge it, so if anybody wants me, email me, dont text. (Mum this means ill ring you at some stage...so dont panic if you havent heard from me in a week!!!)

Well thats it for me right now

Love most of yuz!!

Surely anything with playa in the name has gotta be more exciting... Good to see you made your flight - watch out for dodgy burritos! So.... when will we be seeing some photos then chop? Take care mate.
