The Bottom Line. Chinese food doesn't have to be a diet disaster. Opt for dishes that are full of steamed or lightly stir-fried veggies (ask them to use very little oil) and lean proteins (shellfish, fish, chicken, tofu, lean beef). Use chopsticks to help slow your eating, allowing your stomach ample time to send signals to your brain that you are full.
Hurricane season in Cancun. We are considering traveling to Cancun/Mayan Riviera in November but are concerned about hurricanes and inclement weather. I've looked at weather charts for that time of year and historically hurricane season is from Sept to end of Nov. Last year the longest cold spell was from Nov. 13 -Dec 2.
Here is a general explanation about the weather in Cancun. Hurricane season in the Atlantic beings June 1st and ends November 30th, however, most hurricanes occur August through October. The chances that a hurricane will hit during your vacation are very low. Cancun has only been hit by two major hurricanes: Gilbert on September 15, 1988 and Wilma on October 21, 2005. They were 17 years apart! The best precaution you can take, just in case a hurricane does occur, is to purchase trip insurance.
