Uaymitun 2022-Blog Post #5 “Chicxulub and more!”

Welcome to our blog post that captures some of the changes going on here in Uaymitun!

As we travel around our local area, we are amazed by the amount of construction underway! Not only in town, but along the Costera as well. While we haven’t driven further East from here to Telchac Puerto or San Crisanto yet, others have told us of massive developments that way as well.

Within 2 kms of our house, there are at least 6 new houses or renovations under way!

Big happenings here at Uaymarima as well! Gaby’s next door neighbour has decided to build two small houses behind her house… one for her son and one for a dedicated valedor (caretaker). In doing so it will greatly reduce our ability to drive onto the property, so Gaby has decided to make a new entrance off the road and likely build a wall between the properties.

This gallery shows some pics of the construction!

Amongst all the changes, we are enjoying some familiar things as well!

Raymond & Pamela came out to the beach for a game of Hand & Foot and dinner at Loncheria La Carolina in the square in Chicxulub! We personally think they have the best Yucatecan food on the square!

The Winners and still Champions of Hand & Foot!
Salbutes, Panuchos and Empenadas have arrived!
Another view of Carolinas!
Always an interesting person or two in the square!

After dinner, we had a nice walkabout the square in Chicxulub!

Pizza Leo was actually open… that’s a first!
Just around the corner is the new Osteria 386… wood fired pizza! We have to try it soon!
The Viejo Bar was open near the pier
Welcome to the Chicxulub Pier at night!
The old El Faro restaurant is now a renovated private residence!
La Michoacana ice cream store… everyone should try Helado Elote once!

And last but not least on our wander around the square is one of the newest additions… the Chicxulub T-Rex!

On the way home, we stopped at the intersection by the Pemex and grabbed a night photo of the Pemex Raptor!

The Pemex Raptor (as we call it!) First of 20 dinosaurs on the Sendero Jurasico!

That’s it for this blog post! Until next time…

Cheers!

Love to all,

-Doug and Elaine
