Flag of Mexico Isla Holbox, Mexico
Monday, May 5, 2008

One morning while talking with whoever was at the same table as I was over tea and toast I found out that they too found Mujers to be oppressively overbearing with fat white tourists in tank tops.

They said they were going to Isla Holbox (hol-bosh) geographically nearby but unconnected by coastal roads making it a three to four hour trip from Cancun. That sounded exactly what I was looking for so I packed by backpack in twenty minutes and got on the next ferry to the mainland, followed by a minibus to the main terminal, a bus to the Holbox ferry and then said ferry to a blissfully serene island.

Lazing on the beach, hanging around in hammocks and casting into a lagoon of fish after puttering across the island on a golf cart over sand roads made the time fly by.
