Our Fantasy staff treated us to an early Valentine's treat today because we're busy tomorrow. So off to the palapa for a 'boil in a bag breakfast'. Joan and Barry will understand this! I, the egg hater, had pancakes of course with fresh fruit but it was a great breakfast.
Then off we went to Xel-ha,
(shell ha) a sustainable develpment water park and what a wonderful place. We explored a bit and then took a bus up river where we put our stuff in a bag, put on life jackets, picked up our inner tube, went down stairs into the mangrove plants and sat on the inner tube and off we went down the river. It took us about 1 1/2 hours as the river current moved us in the sunshine. As luck would have it at the end, the wind came up and we had to paddle with our arms like mad to get ourselves to the landing area because it started to push us back up the river. Took about an hour. It was so much fun, just loved it. Sure worked up an appetite.
I'm trying up keep up to date with our blog and there is absolutely nothing here. However, our wagonmasters Cecil and Brenda have friends in this park that used to be Fantasy Wagonmasters for caravans and they have satellite Internet, so he has opened his for all of us to use. However - I can blog my text and do email but so far I can't upload pictures, so we'll see.
I have gone to 'The Great Italian Coffee House' in Cancun, delicious iced coffee, walked up the street to a hotel that we'd parked in their parking lot on the beach In Veracruz - no hookups, and to an Internet cafe in a small town. It is really catch as you can. We didn't bring our tow car so I am dependant on others for rides so don't wish to impose. We're happy with that decision, it is bad enough driving here in a 40 foot without having a car behind.
