Isla Mujeres bids us fond farewell by attempting to drown us on our way to the ferry. There was no avoiding the Caribbean deluge so we spend the bus and ferry trip from Isla Mujeres to Playa Del Carmen Mexico wet and freezing in lovely air conditioned buses and ferries. Thankfully Playa del Carmen is sunny and warm so we get checked into our hotel on Playa del Carmens' Fifth Avenue (Quina Avenida) and hit the streets in search of Tacos which we of course find with no problem. We come across the famous El Fogon Taqueria of Playa del Carmen and feast on Tacos el Pastor. Before we know it, the Ultramar ferry to Cozumel Mexico is boarding and we're off to Cozumel....where we rapidly find friends, beachtime, and FOOD.

Well, our last day in East Lamoon, Harris.
And we are absolutely soaked.
It has been pouring down rain.
And there was no way around it.
The puddle was so big, we just had to go.
It was a river.
It was a river all the way across.
And bonus, the water all smells like sewage.
Yeah, we're just soaking wet.
So we're going to be on the bus for the next couple of hours
and very embossed in air conditioning, soaking wet.
But hey, it's been an awesome visit here.
Oh, yeah. It's been beautiful.
Next stop, Playa del Carmen.
Oh, we're doing it now? OK.
This is Maria from New York.
We met on the ferry over from East Lamoon, Harris.
Hi. You guys helped me because I was getting lost and nervous.
So I'm very grateful.
And then you rescued somebody from the bathroom.
You're a hero. Yeah, yeah.
There's a I went to go to the bathroom
and the door was locked and I waited for a while.
I said, oh, geez, it's going to smell real nice when I go in there.
And but then I hear all this banging and rattling.
And someone was locked in there.
So I ran to the front of the boat
and waved at the captain and yelled, I would I would.
And he came out or some guy came out and he had to use a tool
to get this poor little girl.
And just like that, we're in Playa del Carmen.
Hi, it's sunny.
We're in a nice little place right on Fifth Avenue called Hotel Secreto.
It's kind of back in a bit.
So it's actually quite peaceful despite being on Fifth Avenue.
Yeah, it's cute.
Hey, lucky. Oh, wow.
First things first, we had to find some tacos.
Anywhere you see a meat stick like that, good stuff.
You know, let's try the El Paso.
We just checked out of our hotel and we're headed to Cozumel.
So much for that place being quiet.
They have a restaurant that only opens up at probably
by I think like six o'clock at night and goes till all hours.
People laughing.
And then the boom, boom, boom of all of the pretty active.
Yeah, it's active to about three o'clock in the morning with it.
Really loud in your room.
We had a quick trip through the day.
Ah, the tip for today.
No, just not to get seasick.
We are going to the beach.
We're at the beach today with our friends Star and David and Maui.
We're at the Palapa Beach.
On our trip, we were the best comedians on Cozumel.
Maui's the star of the show.
We have a surprise today.
We have our friends.
We're going to watch Simone try the peanut butter coffee.
As you can see, I'm not trying Chris's because I don't like peanut butter.
Come on, be a sport.
I can't believe she actually tried it.
Yep. Tastes like peanut butter.
Didn't take us long to find food back at Dona Diaz.
I like mine.
There you go.
So Simone found out what's up with the raspberry one.
How's the lime going?
We're off to get some food.
After watching a lot of YouTube travel, we think we're up for trying some.
What is it?
Indian food. Indian food.
What's the name of the place?
I don't remember.
Bindi Irwin.
We're trying the Bindi restaurant.
Bindia. Bindia.
Yes, we're in Mexico.
Yes, we're going to eat Indian food.
We're going to try something new.
And try not to get hit.
We always prefer to walk whenever possible.
It can get a little interesting around here.
You always have to keep one eye out.
One of the interesting parts of finding restaurants around here is there's not really addresses so much.
We found it.
It doesn't look open.
So much for Indian food, we're going to go get some local food.
So much for that.
Change of plans.
Local food place is closed.
So back to search for Indian.
And you never know, we might find someplace else along the way.
Or we might just go to Hooters for wings.
Oh, I see where he is.
We decided on wings.
I found this lady who makes the best popcorn on the island.
And we're addicted.
We keep going back to her over and over again.
She is so much fun.
She keeps trying to give us hot sauce.
And we keep saying no.
But she really thinks we should have hot sauce.
But it's so much better without.
She's hilarious.
And her popcorn is great.
It's 25 pesos for a big bag.
Let's go.
Salsa.
What you just talked about.
This is the popcorn.
It's the best on the island.
So when people speak Spanish
all of a sudden
my brain frees out and goes
I don't understand, I don't understand.
Of course, the hot sauce.
Do you want to know about the hot sauce?
My mind goes blank.
Salchicha? No, no, no.
Salsita.
Salchicha is sausage.
She thinks I'm crazy.
Home for the night.
Eat our popcorn.
This will wrap up this week's vlog.
We'll leave you with salchicha.
I'll never forget.
Keep drinking this coffee.

That was good.
