Hola! Arriving in Mexico

Air travel is amazing. A mere six hours of air travel and we went from freezing winter weather in Canada to tropical summer heat in Mexico. The moment we walked off the plane in Huatulco, Oaxaca we were oppressed by the humidity, it was such an extreme change for me that my skin immediately broke out in a heat rash. It didn’t take long, however, for us to adjust to the welcomed change. After our arrival in Hutulco, we passed through customs, which was the friendliest I have encountered in my international travels so far, and rented a vehicle, as did our friends. We followed them through the streets of Pochutla in search for food and to admire the sights. We did find a little restaurant and our friend Maria impressed us with her Spanish and ordered food for all. The food was tasty but a little foreign and tired travellers meant some were more adventurous eaters than others.
