Got up, made breakfast at the hostel - pancakes and eggs with veggies. Took a taxi to the Tulum ruins, it was beautiful there, pretty hot, and lots of tourists. Beautiful beach, we waded a bit and Aaron rock climbed on the cliff. We went back to go to our cenote tour, and found out our Sian Ka'an tour for tomorrow was canceled. We switched our tours around and booked a different tour for Sian Ka'an that afternoon, but the van never came for us. We returned to the shop we bought the tour from, but no one was there. For the next 7 hours. We are currently out $30. We will hopefully go on our scheduled cenote tour tomorrow. We walked around Tulum some more, but we are bored with it, we want to be doing something. We bought a bag for Aaron and a shirt for me. Aaron is coming down with something bad, body aches and he is sleeping for the second time today. He got over his sinus infection a day or 2 ago, but may not have his immunity back yet.
We had pork, cactus and mushroom tacos for lunch.
4 cheese pasta and really good pizza (recommended by 2 Italians) for dinner. Eventually the owners came back to the shop, gave us our money back with no problem and called the other company very unhappy.

Tiny, delicious mango
I was obsessed with these...my mom makes this chocolate cake called Wacky Cake, it has all these weird things in it, like vinegar and something else...anyway it's really good and I don't make it very often. Well, down there, all we had to do was go to the bakery, instant delicious wacky cake! I'm still craving them.

Megan, do you remember the meaning of this? I remember they spin a certain number of times based on their age...or status or something? We didn't get an explanation this time.

I can't remember for sure, but I thought the twirling while twirling around the pole had something to do with how many times their relative before them use to do it added to how many times they have done it.
Sounds familiar...these guys were definitely just doing it for the tourists, as soon as they were finished they got up and did it again! I can't imagine doing that all day.
