Cozumel


Mark and I watched the boat pull into Cozumel early this morning then went to a quick breakfast before meeting the group in the java cafe. Most of the group decided to either rent scooters or just go to a beach. Here is Peter trying out his scooter Here are some bathing beauty's applying the very needed sunscreen Evelyn, Mark and I decided to go to the state park beach at $19.00 each with a taxi ride of $11.00 there and $10.00 back. The weather is so hot and sunny it is hard to imagine the snow and cold at home. We found this internet cafe where we could get on line for only $2.00 a half hour but it took me about 10 minutes to get online, still so much cheaper than the boat at 75 cents a minute. We got a message from one of Nate's sisters that baby Drake is doing better. So praying for him, Brooke and Nate.
The snorkeling was ok at the park but we really expected more fish. The coral is just not the vibrant colors we expected also but the water is so clear and such a beautiful blue. \One of the funny stories today was while Mark and I were snorkeling, all of a sudden we were surrounded by fish, then a vendow in snorkeling gear and a camera shows up and wants to take our picture. Enough already we just can't get away from the vendors, not even in the water! Each day of this trip has been such a delight it is hard to imagine it is almost over and we are going to have to face going home to the cold and snow. Tomorrow is our day at sea, then Sunday we must leave this floating hotel I'll post pictures and videos of the trip once home.
