Our last day in Merida was mostly walking and walking. On Sunday morning Paseo de Montejo and some other near-by streets are closed for cars so you can walk there freely and also bike everywhere (I wish we could but our baby is too small for that yet). There hardly is a chance to miss on that. We also visited the zoo and a family park. It was so much fun, we haven't visited the zoo for far too long. Bonus point: it's completely free! lost of shade for people who are hot all the time, tons of attractions for kids (suitable up to teenage years) and food for everyone. And you know me, I love a good zoo and a long walk. very enjoyable half-day. Late in the afternoon we sat on bus and journeyed back home.
Zoo and it's inhabitants. So pretty and I'd say animals look happy and well kept. The places are pretty wide and big, I have to admit I didn't feel any heavy emotions seeing them.
My outfit is very basic and mimics my first day formula. A bucket hat (comfy!), long shorts with big pockets (I found them in boys section) and a shirt (shirts are my favorites because of the baby lately). I think playing with black and white made this outfit very cute and I have to admit I liked it more than oyer-touristy first day shirt shirt look.
