Mexico Trip - October 2007

I have had a lot of requests for pictures of last our trip to Mexico. Matt and Annette went to the Yucatan peninsula. They went with their good friends from Denver, Tim and Janelle. They put over 600 kilometers on their rental car... they went all over the place and wanted to do and see everything! This first picture is of them at Chichen Itza... an ancient Myan ruin.
Annette peeks from behind a giant pillar of an ancient structure built before the time of Christ! Amazing!

Here is Annette on a boat near Isla Mujeres! We rented a golf cart and drove all over the island!
Matt and Annette on a beach on Cozumel Island! We snorkeled like crazy here! We rented scooters and had a blast checking out all the different beaches!
Hamocks are really not as comfortable as you would think! We snapped this picture just before we left the Xel Ha estuary... it was they only time we actually used a hamock. We were too busy riding down the river on tubes, snorkeling in the reefs, cliff diving, swimming with dolphins (well actually we did that in last year but our friends Tim and Janelle totally lucked out and got a private swim session), and of course eating great food.
A small tropical storm was moving in and it rained through out the day. We took this picture on the rougher side of Isla Mujeres.






Here is a picture of us with our friends Tim and Janelle and our guieds for the ATV jungle tour.


Tim, Janelle, and Matt on their four wheelers. We got so muddy... it was great! They took us through the jungle and to two Cenotes (connecting caves that are filled with water, they create an underground maze all through out the Yucatan for thousands of miles) we swam through a small portion with our guides and even cliff jumped into the mouth of one.
