When not traveling for leisure, this is my work life.

I’m leaving in three days. Seriously want to get in another snorkel and try to improve my pics. The rest of the week’s weather looks bad. It’s windy and some rain. When it’s windy and overcast, and little sunlight, the water isn’t so clear and everything looks blue-green. But it’s my last chance to capture beautiful sights in the ocean.

Here is a link to resources.

A new pier for this season.

Captain Auturo, I was the only one today.

To the Coral Reef

Barracuda

This afternoon, Rumi and Lina are leaving to go back to Japan. This morning they are going to the Crocko Zoo. My daughter went there a few years ago and Loved it.

I went snorkeling today. I looked at the weather for this week, as I am leaving Saturday. This day seemed the best relativity, with low wind.

Our captain

My snorkel buddies for today are from Toronto, Canada. Still not optimal conditions, especially for photos.

The above fish are huge, unable to tell in this photo

On the way to beach, Lina spotted a meatball sub place. It is new from last year. That’s where she wanted to eat dinner.

The meatball subs were very good.

The resident dog was watching out for us or hoping for a snack.

Denise and Mike Tenney left this morning. The three of us left are going to the beach. The Tenneys found a new beach club, closer then MY PARADISE beach club the one I usually go to.

Had lunch on the beach. Had shrimp tacos. Lina had pizza, was surprisingly good.

We decided to have dinner at La Serena. It overlooks the Plaza, town square.

Had a delicious seafood dinner, Selected our fish from the catch of the day. It was scored and deep fried.

We were entertained by a Mariachi band

HANGING OUT BY POOL

PRACTICE IN POOL BEFORE SNORKEL

INTO THE OCEAN

It was not a good day for snorkel, very windy. My friends are leaving soon and there are many things they want to do.

A turtle swam by. I kinda followed it for more pictures. It’s the first time I have seen a sea turtle in this part of the ocean.

And away the turtle went

Saw the turtle once more.

Nothing was as spectacular as the sea tutle

Barracuda

Went to one of my favorite seafood restaurants. This is the view from our table.

Denis and Mike. We had the whole fish. Scored and fried.

We selected the fish from catch of the day.

Arrived last into Puerto Morelos. Its wonderful to be back. I am joined this year by two couples.

Denise and Mike, long term friends, it’s they’re first time to visit. Nest week, Rumi and Lena will join me from Japan.

A spotted ray swam by

The white area is dead coral. The coral reefs are dying all around the world.
