Back from Cozumel
August 8, 2005I just got back from vacation in Cozumel. The vacation was much needed and I feel 100x better. A full tank is going to be needed as this is going to be a very hectic month.
One of the things I noticed is how slow life moves there. With the exception of the taxi cab drivers, people were content in just hanging out staring at the ocean.
An interesting fact I learned was that up to a few years ago, the Mayan people were isolated and had no concept of money. They just had to worry about finding their next meal. They also had the lowest rate of heart disease in the country. Now, they are starting to be concerned with things such as buying cars and luxury items. They have already started seeing a rise in heart disease.
