Cozumel

I am skipping a day. We actually went to Cayman first, but I can't find my underwater camera, and that's all the pictures I have. I hope I didn't leave it on the boat.

We had a fun day in Cozumel. We went to a resort and rock climbed. We started out on a wall that wasn't to high, but the last one we climbed was scary high. It was a lot of fun. We climbed to the highest tower and repelled off. You really have to trust a lot of people to stand on the edge of the tower and sit back into nothing. It was cool. Then we walked on some rope bridges and did a little zip line. It wasn't anything compared to the one in Jamaica, but fun. Then we suited up for amazing snorkeling. At one point Aaron and I turned around to see if Troy and Kelli were close, and all we could see were fish swarming them. I think Troy had just peed. I touched more fish that day. We saw a couple puffer fish and a school of barracuda's! It was so neat, we did it twice.

On the taxi ride to the resort, we felt a little like we were in the Amazing Race. We didn't really know if he was taking us to the right place, and he didn't speak very good English. I was a little scared. But we made it and Troy used his construction Spanish to get us back to the ship. A couple bottles of vanilla, some souvenirs for the kids and we were ready for the next stop, Bahamas.

So fun, looks like such a great trip. Hey I have a question for you. Who did you book your cruise through? We are planning one for 2011 with my in-laws. I know that is sooo far away. But I heard if you plan far in advance you get a better price. So I wanted to start looking.

I can't believe Troy's construction spanish got you where you needed to go. I would think it would get you kicked out of the Taxi!

Your first couple lines cracked me up, because I misread and thought you said you had lost your underwear. Glad to know it was just the underwater camera.

Tyson and I miss your fam. And eating in n out every day :)

It was totally Amazing Race! I bet there was a hidden camera somewhere and we were really on it. Just kidding! I am such a dork but I had a ton of fun that day.
