Carnival in Chelem

Carnival is the latin American version of Mardi Gras. In Merida our capital it is a huge affair! Here in our little fishing village it is smaller and has more of a family feel. Last night was Fat Tuesday, the official end of Carnival until next year. If you are thinking of moving or visiting here, carnival is always a good time to come and see all the locals out having fun!




And another little monster!

And they don't just ride burro's in Chelem they ride horses

  1. If you want honesty and friends willing to walk an extra mile with you....you can not do better than Doug and Teresa. I am proud not only to work with them at Mayan Living, but to call them my friends.
    Love you both
