I think I might be inclined to like Merida if I had seen more of it than my hotel, the two main streets, and downtown. Yesterday was a series of training, restaurant visits, potential restaurant site visits, and back to the hotel. I know the beach is nearby because I can see the ocean way off on the horizon. Maybe I'll get a glimpse of it from the airplane later today. No pictures and nothing of interest to report. Today's a travel day from Merida to Veracruz. You'd think you could fly non-stop but no, it has to be hard. We have to go to Mexico City to change planes to get to Veracruz. It's like flying from Denver to Phoenix via Los Angeles.

Nestled in a valley between two mountain ranges, it's green, colorful, and everything you could want a place to be when the purpose is total work decompression. No major sightseeing, no expectations. You, a city and a view. It's walkable and small. You've got to look up, left and right,
