Yoga Kids at Inspirit Tulum

today turned out to be a great day. I heard about a kids class down on the beach at my friends shop Inspirit. This was going to a Yoga KIDS class. Immediately I jumped at the chance to take the kids down to the beach. We had already finally gotten all of our laundry done so we ready to head off.

The water was as clear and calm as I could have imagined. It was amazing. I floated atop the waves for over an hour with no disturbance. It was beautiful. There is such a peace that comes to you here in Tulum. Especially when you are in the water. You could see clearly down to the soft sand and the water was almost like looking through bullet proof glass.

The kids went into their Yoga Kids class knowing that it was going to be amazing. InSpirit is a very special spot on Tulum Beach and one of my favorite places for classes. The facility is beautiful but the approach to health and wellness is even more amazing. The love and care for everyone - especially children warms my heart.

I got to watch the class a bit from a distance and I was so thrilled about how the kids responded and how happy and into it they were. There is a very nice energy from this spot and I look forward to taking my kids to more classes.

Tequila tasting and Full Moon party at Om Tulum ***

Om Tulum is a great hotel on Tulum beach. They have great rooms and a great little resturant. I also really enjoy the owner. He really cares about the property and gives a lot of himself.





Recently the Tulum.info group had a meet up. Om designed a wonderful tequila tasting for us. This time Angelo pulled out all the stops for an amazing meal. In our honor a magnificent meal and tequila tasting was planned. The chef was cooking all sorts of new items that are not on the menu and even Angelo had a good time tasting new dishes.



Angelo and Om were wonderful hosts as always and we all had a really good time. The food was simply unreal- as was the tequila and mescal. We all had such a good time. But this one better put forth in pictures.



The food was so amazing. But it is easy to say one of the very best meals that I have had in a long time.

We had 6 tequilas and 1 mescal ranging from blanco- repasado- anejo- almond- pomegranate- it was amazing!!!!




Chilis en Nogales was our first dish followed by an amazing Mexican Pizza. Then a wonderful tostada with a Nut Chili mole sauce. All served with the perfect tequila. Then a beautiful piece of arachera steak on a pollenta cake and Tuna pastor! Dessert was a small trio of perfectly sweet treats accompanied by an almond tequila. Easy to say- I got spoiled




It was such fun to eat food that the chef could explore and experiment on rather then just normally great food of OM Tulum.

Not more then a few days later we went to Full Moon party at Om. This party happens every month during the course of the Full Moon and it is a great party. The moon lights up the whole beach and creates a magical enviroment. I love it.

The Cottage Restaurant, Tulum ***

When I saw this new restaurant first start to open I got really excited. The photos of the food that had been taken was amazing and I could not wait to get inside and see the real thing.

The Cottage Restaurant has a nice outdoor seating area featuring a large bar prominently displaying the wide array of beers available. With numerous examples of brew from Mexico, Argentina as well as the USA and Europe proudly drawing me in side, I sat and watch people enjoy their food.

As this was an unexpected stop, I was not ready for a full meal. But I cannot wait. All the food was beautifully presented and you could smell the fresh ingredients. It was wonderful.

As this is a perfect place to people watch- I would imagine this a perfect place to have lunch. Great food specials are offered throughout the day during certain times. Dishes as low as 47 pesos to only 80 pesos for fajitas!

They also offer free Wi-Fi which is always wonderful. Between that and the 2 x 1 Happy hour- I just found a perfect place to stop off in town and check my email.

Another amazing draw for me to The Cottage Restaurant was the aroma of this incredible espresso bar featuring independently grown coffee from Chiapas! From plant to cup! Cafe "Yajalon"

I am so looking forward to eating a full dinner here. I will be there Friday night with a friend and will report all that I find out.
