No post from Cozumel yesterday since we were concerned that we had left Jacob to deal with our domestic fire emergency. But before we found out about the conflagration, we did some birding. Just as we were watching wildlife, wildlife was watching us... (Photo above). Not much worries me wildlife-wise, but crocidillians of any sort wig me out. Each pond I walked by had at least one resident caiman, and since I knew there could be at least 2 per pond, I really worried when I saw only one.
Talking to Jake assured us that not only was there nothing we could do, but he had everything under contol. So we returned to our play! Highlights of snorkeling yesterday included a walking conch, spotted sting ray, and a sea turtle. The sea was clear and beautiful, and the sand was brilliant white.
We finished the day with dinner at a seafood place frequented by locals. La comida esta muy bueno!
Today we visited the Mayan ruins at San Gervasio. Go figure how Mayan ruins ended up with a Spanish name! The site was much more extensive than the guide book implied (maybe because we failed to get to sites like Chichen Itza and Talum?), but the weather was stupid humid and hot.We are ready to go home to see what the charred desert looks like. Quin will be home later in the week and it will be good to have the family under one, intact roof again.
