La Cocina Mexican Restaurant in Xcaret Review
Today, I was in the mood to reminisce about the last vacation I took. This time I wanted to blog about in specific about La Cocina Mexican restaurant. This was a buffet restaurant in the Nature park of Xcaret. The place has some good ambience and decoration. The waiters though stoic, are efficient. Once you get your drinks, you are left to your own devices. It is up to you to get the food you want to eat. The buffet has quite the varied selection. It has all the core ingredients for you to make the best tacos...
Tulum Revisited Highlights Travel Tourism
Last July, I revisited Tulum with my family. On our second visit, we had more time to fool about. We arrived there pretty early in the morning. Despite the early time, it was pretty hot. From time to time, a cloud would pass over the horizon to provide a bit of shade. The ruins looked a little bit more ruined. They were a few archeologists trying to restore some of the ruins.

Closeup and Faraway Random Artsy Photos
Today, I wanted to show you some photos I took a bit of a long time ago. They had been originally posted in my Blogger website.

Still, I figured that a journalist should learn...

La Fuente Restaurant in Barcelo Riviera Maya Travel Foodie
Today, I wanted to write a short blog about La Fuente. La Fuente means the fountain. It is a Spanish restaurant in Barcelo. When I say Spanish, I mean from the country of Spain. The first thing I wanted to talk about was the trip to the restaurant. Since it wasn’t in the main hotel, we had to take the bus to go there. Barcelo has a bus that helps you move throughout all the resorts. So, you can make reservations in a restaurant that is not part of the section that you are staying. Those that stay in...
