Old Photo of Mark and Abbey Found


A few years back in Playa del Carmen, Mexico (ca. 2002). I was still Director of The Office of Instructional Technology (New York City Board of Education) then and really needed some serious R & R to deal with the stress. Snorkeling the Caribbean during the day and Margaritas at night in the company of my younger brother, Abbey, did the trick:)
I wonder if that great open air bar, Panchos, that we spent time at is still there? I know that Corto Maltes, which was then one of the few remaining palapa roof, bungalow style places to stay ("The Last of the Old Playa" was proudly stated on the sign at the entrance) has since been 'upscaled' to a fancy condo or something-er-other... sigh!
