Since we have to have a mission to do anything, we decided that it would be a good idea to go to Ticul to get some pottery that the town is famous for, along with leather shoe factories. Since I didn't need any new shoes, darn it, we went for the pots. One of our big palms is outgrowing the pretty large pot that it currently lives in.
Ticul is south of Merida, which is pretty much south of us. It took about an hour plus a few minutes to get there. We went through some very picturesque little towns, Uman and Muna before we got to Ticul. They all had big imposing churches and nice town squares with trees and benches. Ticul and Uman had bustling marketplaces, Muna probably had one too, but we didn't see it. On the way back we passed an area of cenotes, which are bodies of water fed by underground rivers. The one that we saw frm the road looked pretty inviting but the gate was closed. By that time, we were ready to get back to the seabreezes that make life so wonderful at the beach. It was fun and I would go back now that we have the lay of the land.
