According to Chabba, I will post a few blogs, then get tired of blogging. He is correct. I only blog because Umma makes me.

The only place to get wireless here is outside the bar. Tonight is karaoke night. No one here can sing. I'm dying. I think I'm going to keep this blog as short as I can because I can't take too much of this.

Seriously, this karaoke is brutal.

Anyway, today we couldn't get up on time to do Cozumel, so we decided instead to go to Tulum. Usually our Tulum trips involve us wandering around ruins in unbearable heat but today, it was actually relatively cool. We saw approximately 239832 iguanas, but keep in mind, that's a rough estimate. We wandered down to the beach so we could enjoy the sandwiches Umma packed for our lunch, and as we were eating, Oppa looked off into the distance and, noticing the intimidating dark gray color of the clouds, said, "Wow, those clouds look bad." They looked like this:


We all acknowledged Oppa's statement, but we didn't move or find shelter or anything until the life guard decided to wave everyone out of the water. Sure enough, the skies opened and we were met with torrents of rain. We ended up looking like this:


Okay, SERIOUSLY, this karaoke NEEDS TO END.

Um.. what else... Oh, Umma said that she doesn't like black garlic because she prefers white garlic. She also probably doesn't like luchador garlic because she's racist. Just kidding.

Wow, are these people for real? They just cheered like crazy for the worst rendition of an already bad Carrie Underwood song. Honestly, worst I've ever heard. Though, I don't actually listen to much Carrie Underwood karaoke, so I don't really have much of a basis for comparisson. Suffice it to say that it was really, really bad. Please put a bullet thourgh my head and end this pain!

Another karaoke song later, and I'm really glad I grew up in California where country music isn't as big as it is in other states. If this is what I listened to, I think my entire life would be a lot different. Basically it would vacuum!

Tonight we had an interesting dinner, kind of an East meets West fusion of comfort food. We had Grilled Cheese Sandwhiches with Ramen and cucumber kimchee. As odd as that may sound, it really is yummy! Ramen: 90% love and 10% noodle.


Tomorrow should be an exciting day, and we don't need to get up at an ungodly hour either. Let's not forget that we are on vacation.

Really, I can't think of anything else to write because this karaoke is so bad. It's filling my brain and I can't function properly. I think now's as good a time as any to sign off.

Tomorrow, we're doing ziplining, rapelling, snorkeling in a cenote and playing with spider monkeys. Or... something. Awesome!
Until then,
Mia and Uncle Brian

Oh, here's a video, because we've been waiting to use this feature of the blog since day 1
