Well, here it is, the end of May already. I can’t believe it.

Cancún is hot and humid, and I almost can’t stand it. I’m definitely a cool-weather guy, and I just sweat and suffer in this humidity. I think it’s time to stop bidding for these trips until winter comes around again.

I got my shots done early this morning and wanted to get this post up before my day got started. It’s a late show today, with just one leg back to Phoenix, which I’m pretty pleased with.

The amount of seaweed on the beach is the worst I’ve seen it. Parts of the beach are almost unwalkable, and the smell can be pretty bad. Despite that, I had some really good conversations with the workers this trip. Everyone is so nice. When you start asking people where they grew up, what their parents did, or what their favorite childhood memories are, you can end up having some really beautiful conversations.

This is technically a no-tipping resort since everything is included, but I still tip everyone. They work hard, and I know it’s appreciated.

Lots of stray pixels this time around. I tried to experiment a little and be creative with some of them. Every photo was shot and processed on the iPhone.
