The day trip was so much fun, the cenote was breathtaking and the buffet food was pretty good. It was cool to be blessed by a Mayan person in their language with smoke. Then, seeing the ruins was fantastic. Can't really put it into words. Finally, stopping at the colonial town was nice, but we didn't see much of it because we ran to get dinner in the 30 minutes we had stopped there.”
