PART 3....DAY 2 IN PLAYA DEL CARMEN.






Pictures:
Gene ponders something at Mamita's Beach Club.
They come around and charge $3. for the use of lounge chairs and the little shade palapa and give you a wrist band.
An unusual shrimp cocktail that looks strange but was REALLY good. It had avacodo, jicama,lots of shrimp and cilantro. The fish ceviche at this place was wonderful as well....and had an excellent Mojito.
Locals selling fruit at night on the PDC plaza. Great photo but I'm too scared to ever buy any....and it might be perfectly fine...but don't want to chance it.
Another shot of the beach in Playa. The beaches there are pretty but there isn't any shore snorkeling...so we are ready to be off to Cozumel.

Checked out of our hotel at noon.
By the way we got a continental breakfast there that was included in the $72. price. It was just toast...but their butter tasted special, coffee was excellent and we also got a BIG glass of fresh squeezed O.J.

People in Mexico say our name "Pole"...there is no "Oooo" sound in Spanish.

We took 3 bottlecap snakes on our trip.
One went to Trudy and Antelmo and the other two were for Alicia and gang.
Last year I took Alicia 2 small pieces of my glassart...so I've left my mark on her B&B.

By the way....the bus from Cancun to PDC was $8. each.
The ferry over to Cozumel from PDC is $12. each.
The ferries are BIG...can hold maybe 200 folks?
And it has A/C inside and a bar and T.V. and sometimes a live band.
It rained hard on the ferry ride over to La Isla.

Y'all need to contact the Comanche - they were big users of the War Trail in olden days and sure ought to know something about fly mitigation. And there's always the County Agent ....
