Sam from Long Beach for these wooden masks, signifying Korean culture and ancestry. I’ts always a great time with these heritage pieces. I have a few in rotation at the moment, can’t wait to showcase the new segments.

We switch the layout after witnessing Chichen-Itza to some nature and exotic wildlife, from animals for the general public, to some others much deeper in the abyss. And as always the people of Quintana Roo were so noble and welcoming.
We happened to stumble across the city of Merida on the Yucatan Peninsula. Also being home to the second oldest Cathedral in the New World, the Cathedral of San Ildefonso.
We also walked through the premier beaches and witnessed a lot of people enjoying fun in the sun. So, we made it a priority to take part in the turquoise water paradise.
