Back to Playa Del Carmen, 12 Years Later

About 12 years ago I stayed at a small village called Playa Del Carmen, located on the coast across from Cozumal. It was funky and very cool. I returned yesterday and while it has grown and a bit touristy I still like it. With white sand and blue water it is easy to like it. I am staying at the Blue Parrot as I did years ago, it was one of the first hotels here. Now it is deluxe and steep with all things wanted. Playa and I have both gotten a little older, Playa just might have done it better!
