Memorable Moment Then there were two.Not all moments in a trip are enjoyable and this week produced one of the lows. Jamie received some unpredicted news from home that put everyone's head into a spin. The result was the relocation from Isla Mujures (to tell you the truth they were getting a little to much for us anyway) to Cancun, canvassing of flight options to Australia and the departure of Jamie on New Years Eve. We will miss the extra time between beer shouts but wish everyone concerned back in Oz all the best.

New Years Tally After contemplating a 400m walk home new years eve, boxy decided a 3 ½ hour bus ride, asleep on the backseat, was in order. Result - smack under the ear from the bus driver, $10 USD cab fare home, $100 peso fine for losing the hostel key. |
