Tuesday Feb 27th







We got up at 7h30 no golf today. We are going to Chakanaab park for snorkeling and the dolphin encounter. Had a good breakfast so we could wait to be on the wild side for lunch at Chen Rio.

The snorkeling at Chakanaab is not back compare to Dzul Ha at new years lots more damage there. The sea life will have to work really hard in the next few years!

Hélène was very pleased with her dolphin experience and has good souvenirs to take home with her DVD and pictures.

After that we left for the wild side. The wind was full blast and the waves were huge.

Stop at the Rasta bar to do some more shopping for Florence. They have all sorts of necklace and that’s what she asked for. Hélène got her self an ankle bracelet.

Back on the road we stop at Chen Rio at 1h30 for lunch and a few beers. The food was marvelous and the lemonade was homemade. Then we went of to play in the waves.

The day was so nice and warm 35 degrees and full of sun. On the road back to town we decided to add one more thing to our tour of the island. We stop for the Tequila plantation tour. The Margaritas they served us are one of the best I had in many years. The Tequila didn’t upset my stomach like it usually does. The tour is very nice and informative, and the tour guide simply funny as he pointed out often the love magic potion that is Tequila…. They have on site real Agavey plants after the tour you can sample some of the product they have. The brand they represent is Cava Antigua and you can take some home for a very reasonable price. Nice bottled presentation and different flavored tequila also for after meal drinks.

Back to the hotel we relaxed and had dinner very late and very light. Went to the show and had fun for a bit in the lobby with the other Canadians. Off to bed at 10h30.
