Mexico Highlights

High points of my recent Yucatan trip:

• Asking the waiter for coffee and getting in reply a blank, uncomprehending stare along with a vehement "Corona? Pina colada? "
• Asking the lady at the taqueria to recommend tequila, and being referred to the in-house specialist - an eight year old boy. (Who by the way, was *extremely* knowledgeable.)
• A series of road signs all of which read "Follow the signs".
• A vendor offering to sell a trinket for a dollar...which turned out to be a 'Mayan' dollar : 8 USD apparently.
• Bruising my gums on a nacho (which my Cuban friend convinces me is a part of the initiation)
• Finding a village called 'Number 2'.
  
• Harry Potter in Spanish!!!
• Eating cactus. Well, drinking it too :D
