Maruata II
I popped off to Maruata again this weekend. It was all very unplanned, and it ended up with only me and one other girl from Colima going, but we met some friends I know from Guzmán when we got there, completely by chance, and so we spent a weekend hanging about with them. I love Maruata, and I'm glad I went again. This time I got up before sunrise and climbed some cliffs to get photos, which was well worthwhile. I'll try and put them on here, but I'm having some problems uploading stuff at the moment, which I think is to do with the internet place I'm using blocking it. The beach is incredible, and to add to this, I saw a shooting star, and there was some kind of algal bloom that made the sea and the sand glow greenish in the night. Swimming at night in the glowing sea, and leaving glowing footprints as we ran along the beach is something I'm never going to forget.
Aside from that, it was just a normal beachy weekend, with sun and swimming, hammocks, beer and a fire. I'm getting worryingly close to leaving from Guzmán to go travelling. I'm really looking forward to travelling, but it's a shame that I've just met a load of cool people in Colima, and now in three weeks' time I'm going away for ever. I think the only answer is to come back to Mexico, and to visit the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Denmark and Sweden at some point in the near future!
