Xochichan was kinda fun. It is about a half hour away from the city, and you go on a large gondola style boat and go along a river and through the floating gardens. As you are on the boat, sellers of flowers, corn-on-the-cob with mayo and cheese toppings, drinks/beer and sometimes mariachi bands will play a song for 50 pesos. It is a nice family getaway for Mexicans - they bring along the whole family and rent a boat on have a family picnic. It was fun.
