Tuesday February 27, 2007 A Three Week Visit to the Yucatan in Mexico - Day 16

The goal today was to drive to Izamal, a town known for its yellow houses. This turned into an unexpected treat. The town, the huge former convent, and the superb restaurant, all gave the day a golden glow.

This is our second day with power problems in the unit. In the early evening the power shut off for good. Fortunately we had a couple of flashlights and we found a couple of candles so we were able to move about without bumping into each other. I think we finally conveyed the message to the real estate agents that we were not happy. We shall see what happens tomorrow.
