Beer Log 🍺: Boston Lager by Samuel Adams at Concourse F Food Court
Atlanta airport. Watching an NBA game at the bar. Been a long while since I’ve seen this on draught!
Movie Log 🍿: Finding Mrs. Claus, 2012 - ★★
Couldn’t help ourselves and went to one last Cenote. Saw this majestic guy chilling out at the edge. By far the biggest iguana we’ve seen on our travels, certainly the fondest of the camera!

It’s stout season

Finished reading: Children of Memory by Adrian Tchaikovsky 📚
Wha a great read! I love the way the previous two books in the series have contributed to this wider universe. Hopefully there’s more to the series.
Spent the past few days Cenote-hopping around the Yucatán region. Amazing places and incredibly relaxing!
Now onto even more relaxed pursuits, time for the relaxed beach phase of our trip.
Movie Log 🍿: Notes on a Scandal, 2006 - ★★★★
Enjoyed what I can only describe as pure chaos at the Lucha Libre in Mexico City earlier this week. Excellent fun and the biggest Micheladas you’ll ever see
The amazing architecture of Mitla, a Zapotec settlement in Oaxaca. Unbelievably preserved!
Finished reading: Strange Pictures by Uketsu 📚
A good mystery that reminded me of the game Hotel Dusk Room 215. It was engaging trying to piece things together.
The lovely streets of Puebla 🇲🇽
