I went on a trip to Merida, Mexico for Spring Break 2006 with some friends.

We went by horse-drawn carriage through the town.
We were in Merida the week before Easter. There were nearly daily processions through the town.
We went to Celestun to see flamingos. We weren't disappointed by what we saw, but it ended a bit roughly.

Our guide drove the boat at full speed toward a forest before turning at the last moment into the mangrove swamp.
We had a break in our boat trip to swim in the cenotes. The water was beautiful, the muck on the bottom was a bit harder to get used to.

Uxmal- a Mayan religious center that thrived between the 7th and 10th century A.D. At 100 ft. tall, the House of the Magician is the largest structure at Uxmal.
