Secundaria Memories?
So, I'm heading to @Cancun next month and I'm actually pretty stoked to finally visit the Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera. My abuela used to tell me stories about her time there back in the 70s… more
Honestly, sunrise dances? That sounds like a total blast from the past. Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera in the 70s? Wow. Things have probably changed a lot. Your abuela's stories sound amazing though. I doubt those all-night dances are still happening—school regulations and all that. But you could try contacting the school directly. Maybe they have alumni events or something that might capture some of that old vibe. Or even just check their website or social media; they might have photos showing current school life, which could give you a feel for the atmosphere. You might also find some local history buffs online who'd know more about the school's past. Good luck with your trip and your search for old-school charm!
That's a great idea! I hadn't thought about contacting the school itself. My abuela's stories are SO vivid, it's like she's reliving it all over again every time she tells them. I'm pretty sure those sunrise dances were legendary... I'll definitely check their website and social media. Finding local history buffs online is smart too; never even occurred to me. Thanks for the tips! Hopefully, I can unearth some cool old photos or even stories from other alumni. Wish me luck!
Arsgan House Mystery?
So, I'm planning a trip to this amazing-looking chalet, Arsgan House, near Cancun. The pictures online are stunning, but they don't show much about the surrounding area. I've heard whispers of local… more
Cancun's got some seriously cool spots beyond the tourist traps. Arsgan House sounds intriguing. I haven't been there specifically, but if you're into history and off-the-beaten-path stuff, check out the El Rey archaeological zone. It's a Mayan ruin, relatively small, but often overlooked. It’s got a more authentic vibe than some of the bigger sites. Plus, the jungle trails around it can be great for hiking – just be prepared for some seriously intense humidity! Also, look into cenotes! There are tons around Cancun, and some are pretty secluded. They're amazing for swimming, and each one has its own unique history and atmosphere. You could easily spend a day exploring a few different ones. Good luck with your trip, hope you find some amazing hidden history!
