We had such a great time in Cancun. The best thing was being with Ben and Tara. Tara is my cousin, just a year older than me. They live in Virginia, and we got together a lot while we lived in Pennsylvania. Tara and I share the same middle name, Beth, our grandmother's name. And the four of us just get along really well. We laughed a lot. We kept making fun of the drunk people and talking about how we were so much less embarrassing. But a few times we were laughing so hard we couldn't walk down the street. Jeff and I both tripped and almost fell one night after a walk back to from the convenience store. Tara was 5 months pregnant but super energetic! I miss you guys!

Ben and Tara, the beginning of our private tour to Tulum and Chichen Itza.
All of us in front of the temple. There is another temple inside it that is the same, just smaller. They have excavations dated back to 200AD, and are continuing to excavate. Even though it was more expensive we decided to take a private tour with Alma's tour. It was great to have an LDS perspective. It was one of our best days there.
We got to go swim in a cenote, which is part of an underground water system. It was beautiful and I only wish we cold have stayed longer.

We ate some awesome food! This restaurant, Emara, was authentic Yucatan food. It was so delicious and a little adventurous. They only had one English menu and one young worker who spoke english. All part of the fun!

Jeff and I did an excursion at Explor. They have zip lining, jeep driving through caves, and some other touristy stuff. This is the beginning of our day, we had to leave the camera in the locker and were too cheep to buy the pictures of us actually zip lining. The highlight of the day was meeting my "tocia" or my twin, someone who has my same name. She was a cute mexican girl who worked there. Everyone was so nice. Especially when we tried speaking our terrible spanish. I think the only thing we mastered were our numbers. Mostly because we didn't want to get ripped off when we bought things.
