Recycling treasures from the sea… 10 Sep 2012 | 03:18 am
When I go to Isla Mujeres, I always do some hunting for interesting shells and sea glass. I didn’t find anything interesting in Puerto Morelos or Tulum this time, but I didn’t really do any serious s...
Final post on this trip… 2 Sep 2012 | 07:46 am
Sorry about my lateness in reporting my full day in Akumal. It started out pretty cloudy on my morning walk on the beach. Here’s a fixer-upper right in the middle of Half Moon Bay. It has potential....
On to Akumal… 25 Aug 2012 | 07:00 am
Not being really happy with Tulum, I decided on a whim to head up to Akumal and made last-minute arrangements on-line the day before I got there. I’ve been through Akumal briefly a couple of times, b...
Tulum…Chapter Three 21 Aug 2012 | 07:55 am

I got home at about 10:15 p.m. on Thursday night and had to go into work on Friday because it was the first day of registration for the fall semester at the university. Even though I was so tired aft...
Every trip comes to an end… 9 Aug 2012 | 09:25 am
I’m not going to post much tonight. I’m tired and kind of blue about heading back north of the border…not to mention having my camera die. Some people think it may come back if I put it in rice, so ...
Traveling Solo 29 Jul 2012 | 09:06 am
I thought I’d broach the subject of why I enjoy traveling alone. Since I transferred to a different department at the university, my new co-workers have become familiar with my love of Mexico but som...
The final countdown is on… 28 Jul 2012 | 07:06 am
…and I’m armed with tip money, thanks to my neighborhood Wells Fargo. Five more days!
