Playa del Carmen
Its really amazing how quickly things change.
Im in Playa del Carmen right now and Im surprised at how things can seem one way and then change so quickly because of the people that you meet. Earlier I was very sick, fever, cold, and sick to my stomach. Rose took me to the Red Cross (Cruz Rojo) and it literally took 10 minutes and the lady gave me what I needed and it only cost $100 pesos! I was so surprised and a little more pissed off by the US medical facilities. I feel so much better now physically but also emotionally, knowing that it was so easy.
I slept for about 5 hours straight, and in this time Rose went back to Isla Mujeres. Honestly the decisions she has made has completely changed the way I see her. Many of the things that she has done I would never even thinking about doing. For instance, leaving for over twelve hours overnight and not only not telling me or anyone else where she was going or when she would be back then when she did return acting as if nothing had happened. Also leaving a friend while she was asleep and sick. I would just never even think about doing something so selfish, all for a boy. She is now back in Isla with a Mexican who proposed to her after five minutes and who she has only known for three or four days.
After sleeping and being depressed about being alone I got really hungry so I got up to get some food. I ran into another guy from SF who was traveling alone and hungry so we went to this small place around the corner with really good mexican food. I will be going back there tomorrow. Also before I left to eat I met this girl from Canada who enjoys electronic music and I will try to go to the Blue Parrot today which supposedly has good electronic music. She is traveling alone as well and I may travel with her.
So I went to dinner with this guy and had a really good time. I do notice that a lot of the conversations are similar: where are you from, where have you been, where are you going.. but I like hearing the different stories. He has been as far west as Oaxaca and North as Merida, places Ive wanted to go. I think it may be easier than I thought. Obviously there will be difficult moments, but thats what makes the rest so much better.
For now I think Ill go take a nap, then go dancing.
