Eva and Sandy have been living in the Yucatan since May 2005 and are loving it. Yes, it's hot ALL summer long and NO, we are not used to it and do use our air conditioners. We LOVE having our very own swimming pool. We LOVE the sweetness of the Yucatecan people and of most all the people we've met down here. We LOVE that this city has a Costco and is large enough and small enough for us all the time.
