Blogging in paradise

It's hard to blog in paradise.  The Divine Mrs. M and I have been in Playa del Carmen for 3 full days and the desire to be outside in the sun is overwhelming.  The weather has co-operated for the most part, but afternoon thundershowers have put a damp on things at times.  The ability to block out the rest of the world for a few days is another reason we like the Yucatan in Mexico.  Unless you choose to engage, the world is like an opaque window.  We'll be back soon enough and I'm sure the political campaigns will refocus me, but for the moment, I'm heading out to check out the beach!
