Day 3: World Wonder

On Monday, I went on a tour of Chichén Itzá one of the new Seven Wonders of the World (just six more to go)! The tour guides were hilarious and kept us entertained for most of the bus ride and I got to chat with several people throughout the day. It was a wonderful (and super tiring) experience where I learned a lot more about the mysterious Mayan culture.

I got back to my hotel room that night absolutely famished. So I decided to get cleaned up and have dinner in one of our hotel’s restaurants.

Dear Journal: I love eating by myself! You get all this attention from waiters to make sure you’re ok. Right now I’m so stuffed and blissful I’d have no problems passing out right here. Mmm…when’s bedtime….

And now they’re playing “So Far Away.” If I had to stay in one place, this one would be a top contender.

Ok, I’m still sleepy and yet here I am sitting near the pool taking pictures and staring out into the night sky. I want to take in as much as I can because I know I’ll miss this when I’m back home.
