Luna de Miel en Mexico

Hola from Isla Mujeres!
We are one week into a fantastically beautiful honeymoon full of sunshine (sunburns), beautiful blue oceans like in the magazines, wonderfully charming Italian hotel owners in the sleepy island of Holbox where everyone drives around town in golf carts and scooters all night keeping in touch...
Holbox was filled with visible reminders of hurricane Wilma damage that has not been recovered. The town is slowly picking itself back up onto its feet, but the parallel between the nice restaurants and hotels and the run down shops and homes of the locals is eye opening... The people are happy and peaceful and seem to carry with them a sense of hope for the future of their beautiful little island. We will never forget this magical place and hope to return soon to see the progress of these wonderful people.
Upon arrival into Isla Mujeres we were faced again with parallels... The beauty of the island and the water mixed with the Cancun like party scene of the daytrippers. Getting up early this morning we were able to have breakfast with the locals and enjoy the quiet of the pre-daytripper Island. There is beauty to be found here in the locals and behind the party scenes and we are enjoying the search!
Hasta Pronto
