Mexico

The sail over to Isla Muejeres was pretty uneventful, nice flat waters and we managed to sail about 6 knots all the way there! The infamous busy shipping channel which we were not looking forward to because our AIS was not up and running turned out to be the quietest night sail ever....we saw one boat on our way into the anchorage and that was it!!

This birdie came onto the boat at sun set and stayed aboard to rest all night long!!



After a night at sea we sailed into the protected anchorage the following morning. It was fab there and we managed to stay two weeks before leaving for the Rio Dulce.
It had everything a heavily pregnant women could want. Lots of cheap restaurants with good hot spicy food, beautiful beaches and great snorkelling. To top it off a 10 minute ferry ride over to Cancun where there was Air Conditioned shopping malls, more food outlets and the cinema!!
It does not sound adventurous i know, instead of site seeing the mayan ruins and all the touristy stuff all i wanted was air con and food!!haha!!

We did manage to do a little site seeing around the island, where we hired a golf buggy for the day.The island was brill and a beautiful holiday resort for anyone thinking of going!
