Cozumel, Mexico - Day 3

Today we docked at the pretty island of Cozumel, Mexico then boarded a ferry that took us to Playa del Carmen on the mainland. From there we traveled to the amazing ruins of Tulum, an ancient Mayan civilization built on a beautiful stretch of beach. Seeing this crumbling city made me reflect on the people from the Book of Mormon. Tulum was built after Moroni buried the plates but the people who lived here were descendants of the Nephites and Lamanites. Just seeing these old ruins really brought that sacred book of scripture to life. Amazing!

And while we were there I sampled some of the local fare. Delicious! Dave wouldn't try it -- worried about parasites and such. Boy did he miss out, but there was more for me!
