Part 4 Cozumel.







These 2 beach pictures are on the east side of Cozumel.
There is a strong undertow and you can only swim in certain places. Instead we got rained on and hunted for coral with holes.
Alicia and Orlando drove us over there and it was fun time.
There was a darling siamese cat at the bar/restaurant where we took refuge from the rain.
Gene makes his mark at Mescalito's bar....graffiti is encouraged.
This is Venidita...the resident dog at Alicia's B&B...she was cold. She barks whenver someone walks along "her" sidewalk outside the garden wall. We thought it was hilarious that we got into a taxi and told him we wanted to go to Alicia's (alot of driver's don't know where it is) and he asked if it was where the barking dog was.

We only went to the plaza downtown once and it's the first time we've ever been to Cozumel that I didn't buy anything. No sandals, no coffee beans...no nothing.
We stopped by this wonderful art gallery that I always go to when we are there. They have fantastic art and it's expensive. Then we browsed around a really coolfurniture store...it was expensive too.

Alicia is from Oregon and has lived on the island for at least 20 years.
Her co-owners name is Chuco and his nephew Orlando lives there also.
Chuco made us the BEST food....more on that next time.

Love, mary
