Coffee Cafe~coffee.music.life.

Finally a café with comfortable chairs! I know this may not seem important to you, but I am from the coffee culture of Seattle, and cool, comfortable coffee cafes are literally on every street corner. There is nothing more delicious then wiling away an afternoon sipping java, reading, writing, working on your notebook, and soaking up the environs of café chatter. Enter the Coffee Café a new café located on the northern end of 5th Avenue in Playa del Carmen.

From Gulf to Shining Sea.

In the morning, a fog surrounded the sleepy city that seemed to be in no hurry to get moving. Our maps indicated that today we would be driving toward the coastal city of Vera Cruz by way of Puebla.The city of Pachua fell from sight as we maneuvered out of town on a four-lane highway with no speed bumps. Within a few hours, we began to see raw concrete structures stacked on the hillsides and some tent cities with homes pieced together from wood, tin and plastic on the other side of the road. The flow of traffic increased tenfold, and Lou took his place in one of the lanes as he slipped into taxi-driver mode.
