Akumal and Dos Ojos, take two.

After our trip to Akumal the other day, we decided had to go back. We rented fins and went swimming to find turtles, and unlike in Hawaii, we found them pretty quickly!

Despite our scouting trip, we still missed something somewhat useful – the map of the bay. There are specific areas for snorkeling, and the best turtle areas are marked on it. As we swam back into shore we spoke with a man who hadn’t seen any. Miranda ran into him a little later and he said he’d kept going and seen a whole bunch. To bad we didn’t keep going, but we were done with Akumal by that point.

A quick lunch and then off to DO. We took a taxi there, and were surprised to learn that he’d take us all the way in – the cenote is about 3 km along a dirt road.

This place is still stunning, even when you can’t go all the way under. 🙂 Photos will be coming in a day. 🙂

That night decided to make dinner at home and relax. Really nice, just a simple meat pasta, but it was lovely to be able to do that sort of thing. That’s why we get a condo on vacation, for exactly that.
