Chinatown posted:as far as staying in a resort i kinda like the all inclusive ones. I stayed at a Riu once and it was really nice and relaxing and you didnt have to worry about how much you were spending on food and booze. They have their pros and cons. Its nice being able to pay for everything up front and not worry where you're going to go, you tend to have a nice pool and beach access nearby. People whine about the crowds but honestly it is nice having a lot of people to socialize with and its like being at a bar 24hrs/7 days straight if that is your kind of thing. I think some people that gripe about them just don't want to spend that much money on a vacation in Mexico. That or they're too poor to afford one. My point is if you want to stay at a nice hotel in Mexico, you might as well go all-inclusive because it isn't going to be that much more generally (and many resorts you can do either).

TenementFunster posted:i hate australian tourists so loving much. stop the boats, stop the planes, stop the blimps. make australia prison again A lot of people where I live share this sentiment. They tend to be the worst most obnoxious tourists. It really depends on where you live. Where I am, the biggest scum-class tourists are 20-something australian dudes "backpacking" around, but English tourists are really nice here as they tend to be nice old people. Contrast with europe, where hands down by a long shot english tourists are by far the worst people I've ever encountered on this earth.

Germans and/or Danes are the best tourists.

stereobreadsticks posted:I don't know what about my post made you think that was what I meant. Unless you think literally everything outside the walls of your beach resort in Cancun is a slum. Seriously. If you can speak a little bit of Spanish somewhere like Valle de Bravo is going to be a much better time and describing any of it as a 'slum' or 'poverty tourism' is laughable.

I have some questions about Mexican food for the experts: I have had chimichanga before and I thought I liked it, but I had it the other day and it seemed really boring, I don't think there was any chili in it. I know it was invented in California, so is it always pretty boring and I should be ashamed of myself for ever liking them? I had something in CA called a garbage burrito, is that also Cal-Mex? It seemed okay but not that memorable, is that actually a good type of burrito or is it literally garbage tier? As for Australian tourists, I think the important question to ask is: is it okay for a group of dudes to strip down to underwear sporting the Mexican flag while in Mexico?

Went to Playa Del Carmen. Spent most of the time drinking beers and tequila on the beach. Here's the beach: Here's the beer. It was actually pretty good. We found several craft varieties in addition to the regular stuff (modelo, pacifico, etc). Some of the beers were decent, one called Tulum was p. nice. Another one was utter garbage. I also had some beer a guy in the market obviously made in his house. It was too fizzy but tasted good. We went snorkeling here. I took some pictures underwater but I used my phone with a waterproof case so they're lovely. Made this little video of a Mexican fish though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV8GlRnjKjQ Explored some cenotes. Learned that "senotes" means "big boobs" in Spanish. Here is the entrance. These were empty of tourists and very cool. Water was crystal clear and cold. I would have liked to scuba dive in these caves but nobody else in my group did so we just swam through the caves. Probably just as well since they are pitch black and the only way to find your way is a lifeline that looks like this: A mayan sculpture in the jungle between cenotes. Beware of iguanas! Beware of coatis! Little mexicoons ran wild all over the place. We were going to go to Tulum but then decided would rather spend those extra hours in a hammock. Here is the view from my hammock. I am okay with the decision. More ruins to see next time. Phil Moscowitz fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Oct 19, 2016 |

Mexico is the best. The dollar goes a long way and people are friendly and the food is awesome and the booze is plentiful and you generally aren't gonna have any trouble unless you are a total rear end in a top hat.
