Day 2 in Cozumel



We got up this morning and head down for breakfast before our first round of golf.

The restaurant open only at 7am so no need to rush and try to get down early.

We got a good meal down and headed to to course. New staff catered to us Joaquin has left, Olan is on his day off and Ivan is on vacation until Monday.

Got to hit a few balls before we tee off. For sure we are the only schedule player for the day.

So we got to play the round in about 3 1/2 hours and got back to the hotel at around 11h. Got changed and got to the beach we are Sunday and we have about 50 peoples in the hotel leaving to day.

We told Tj and Ross we would meet then in town for dinner at local restaurant call Casa Denis. We had typical Mexican food, TJ and I got the fish and Christian and Ross the chicken mole. We got to see Adrian since he was on the cash for the evening for his brother.

After a good meal we got up and went dancing on the plaza with the locals. The Cuban band we saw last December we on the plaza playing Salsa music. Stop at Fat Tuesday for a few beers and some Chirros. It's a Mexican donut rolled in sugar and cinnamon.



We have rented a car from smart car and got this Blue VW convertible. It was park in front of Adrian restaurant in the empty lot. There is a lot of construction going on around the plaza. The flee market shops have all been moved around the plaza until the new building are ready. About 6 mexican months we were told. We made an appointemnent with TJ and Ross for next Friday for a tour of the Island, some snorckeling at Dzul Ha and some fish plater at Chen Rio.

Leaving for Cozumel September 1st



We got at the airport in Ottawa at 12h30. We waited for TJ and Ross for about 30 minutes before we got in line. Since they were not in we got in line. Lots of peoples today.

They finally got her at 13h05 and got in line. We were checking in when they got in the line up. Gave my extra suitcase full of school supplies to TJ.

We got on to the plane and everything was fine no carrying of the suitcases once in Toronto because they are already tag for the Cozumel flight.

We got to Toronto just in time to walk from one gate to the other. This is as long of a walk then having to go to Terminal 3 with the new train.

Since everybody was on time we left early for Cozumel. Loaned my Cozumel map to TJ to read on the way down. Lots of leg room on Air Canada in economy class. The meal was not so great and very limited. Movies we had a good choice and free of charge for everyone on board. A beer is $6.00 not cheap.





Got in Cozumel at 19h35 their time. It was nice and warm about 27 degrees. It was so nice to feel this nice seat heath.



We got into the airport shuttles and of to El Cozumelenos we when, Tj and Ross to the Allegro.

We had time to unpack and get down for a decent meal at El Cocal and food was fresh and very tasty.
