Ohh you need to go to the bathroom? There's an abandoned hut over there if you're interested...

I had to pee today OUTSIDE of an old abandoned hut.  Now THAT was interesting.  I had to go to the bathroom so bad that I didnt even care where it was, or if anything would bite me in the butt...thank goodness nothing did, but I didn't even think about any of that.

My lack-of-bathroom experience was today at the cenotes.  I had such a good time just swimming all morning/early afternoon...it was seriously sooo much fun! (I'll put those pictures up on Photobucket for you all haha)

Anyway, I didnt get to write on here yesterday because it was a really hectic day.  I went to school, learned how to salsa dance (which was fabulous, by the way), and then was picked up from school by my host-mom to go and have lunch with her and her family.  It was really interesting how all of the women were expected to stand until the men and guests (aka me and Allison) finished eating...totally different from the United States!!

After this, we all met up at CIS for a "Welcome to Merida" party, where everyone and their host family went and had dinner together.  Then, a group of us went out to Sega____(I don't remember the whole name...it was something that began with Sega though haha), which was a small lounge area.  When we finally made it home, after having to fight to get a taxi, of course (haha), I fell asleep and had to wake up at 630 this morning!

But it was worth it because we went to the cenotes today.  There was a platform that all of us were jumping off of into the water, and it was sooo much fun!  I can't wait until we all go to the beach in Progresso tomorrow!!! :-D

Welp, that's it for now...I'll update my pictures sometime today!

Miss you all!!!
