Merida Events: Merry Christmas!

20 December 2015 Events 0

What can we say? We thank you all for reading Yucatan Living this year and look forward to being here for you in 2016. We will be taking next week off... no articles, no newsletter. But we will continue to post any and all events that we know about. In addition, if you are looking for something to do on Christmas and/or New Year's Eve, check out our list of special dinners and events in Merida. Oh, and if you haven't already, order a copy of your Ten Years of Yucatan Living... everyone who has seen it loves it. You will too!

And, of course, Feliz Navidad and Feliz Año Nuevo!!
