Renrubicer: Skeletons In The Closet

[Kris12V]

The food everywhere was pretty great, something that sticks out most salient is the shops, restaurants and everything are so open to the world, there is great transition between interior and exterior throughout mexico, very aesthetically pleasing. Lots of tacos, carne asada, al pastor, etc... i'm gonna focus more on salads and whole food plant based stuff later...

We might have finished all of these tacos in one sitting. Jk. but close. Sad part is the beer down there is just ok unless youre into mexican beer. No IPAs for me so i didn't drink
Oh and the average meal for two is around 500 pesos, which is like 20 bucks usd lol

Playa Del Marta is a city between Cancun and Tulum. Wasnt our favorite spot, pretty ghetto feeling but there are tons of shops and restaurants on the main strip. Still, felt pretty safe even walking around the graffiti covered buildings at night, but overall avoided.
The most annoying part everywhere you go is the fucking tourist shops. Everyone sells the same bullshit hats, shirts, shot glasses, magnets, and they all try so hard to flag you down to get you in as you walk by. So incredibly annoying and obviously desparate. Hey heres a hint sell something unique that people actually want! Fuck was it annoying!

Cool geological structure along the coast, i assume made of some heavier element like limestone but with softer deposits that have washed away over millions of years, which allows neat little pockets of life as the water flows in and out

I got an OEM downpipe off an S3 with ~40k miles on it for $250! just received it, so i got everything i need for the install...
def gonna want a catback in the future. which is good, cause i never liked any full turboback setup sound, and tbh dont like how most downpipes sounded on stock catbacks, but an aftermarket catback only sounds great usually!

another perk of being back home is getting my dog Chooch back! She loves car rides and sitting on the armrest with me.

hope this is not a sign of problems to come and just due to the ~40*/sleety weather here but both my headlights fogged up

Normal for them to fog up; it disappears.

You do that on a 1992 honda civic, not this car. Get a hold of yourself.

You ripped that Jetta apart, you can do it yourself.

Eazy E once said:
Police on my drawers, I had to pause. 40 ounce in my lap and it's freezing my balls.
