Playa del Carmen is an amazing city...It is full of great cafes, street markets, and friendly people! Playa is about an hour away from Cancun and I would definitely recommend it to those hoping to escape the touristy American and bar filled Hotel Zone in Cancun....In Playa, we got caught in a rainstorm and ended up eating at a restaurant called Fusion...Turned out this restaurant had the best Guacamole ever and our server, Melissa was great! She and Sonia shared something in common...they are both journalists! I enjoyed the 90 degree tropical weather in Cancun...Although it rained often, we had nice sunny days too!
On the way from Denver to Cancun, I met the cutest little puppy in the world...His name is Tank...heh heh! I got to walk with him and his nice owner, Rachel all around DIA...:) :)
