The best part of my trip...full body massage and aloe Vera banana wrap! Nothing lavish but pure enjoyment! Started out to the spa jungle. When I say jungle I mean it. Not scared going in because we took a taxi. But the return well I will tell you about that in a minute.

Met up with Sandra a U.S. local of 20yrs. I was relieved because me and the Spanish language not soo good. We talk awhile for the Mayan women prepared for us. We found out that the people that work at the motels only make 300 pesos every two weeks that is roughly 30.00 us. The Mayan women made more at this spa place. We paid 60.00 for a full body massage and aloe rub and where wrapped in bananas leaves. It was one and half hours of pure relaxation. Best part of my trip.

Leaving the jungle another story. We were guided out of the jungle by a young boy to the main road. He didn't speak any English. Once we hit the road side, he told us wait. Only minutes passed but it seemed longer. It was hot and dusty. Final a short bus (van) came by. As it stopped the door slid open. Joe gave him some money-no idea how much and we weaved in and out of slum filled roads. Dwellings that seemed to be habited but not more than a few two by four and tin roof. The drivers in front would yell out to their buddies and stop to chat awhile. I thought we would never make it to the high way. The only thing that I felt safe about was there was a woman and two young kids on the bus. That was a long trip. Scary.

Home never felt so good.
