Puerto Aventuras day 2

To do list for this holiday:
Snorkel
Scuba dive
Swim in a cenote
Visit Mayan ruins

As we explored Puerto Aventuras, we considered signing up for dolphin swimming, snorkelling trips, diving trips, fishing trips, and every other trip imaginable. Everyone wanted to sell us something. Puerto surrounds a marina and dolphin enclosure, with restaurants and shops, and an inordinate number of property rental/sale offices. Mike's personal favourite was Fanny Rental's.

We stopped for a much-needed lunch at Dos Chili's (or is it called Pancho Villa?) including nachos, fish tacos, burgers, and Mike's winner - the garlicky fish. Then walked back through the Omni Hotel and along the beach to our condo.

Our property manager reassured us that Puerto is incredibly safe, so we left Hannah and Ellie at the condo while Mike, Mark and I went snorkelling. Biggest excitement was seeing a ray swimming away from us at high speed. Later I took Mark out in a kayak, which entailed much battling with waves. Then after a home made dinner, Mike took the children out for delicious gelato.

Why is it that the only good photo I have from today is of Mark in a wrestling mask?
