Coral arrived! Yes our faithful sister from Florida, she was our first visitor! We had a wonderful 10 days with her that just flew by. We went on a Cenote tour with our new pals Gabby and Jean Eiff (spelled wrong, he is from France and said we could call him Jeep, which was great!) Gabby is from Merida, Jeep was visiting from France, they are engaged to be married.

The tour was hosted by a local brother Carlos who has also been a huge help to us...he is a tour guide for cruise excursion groups. We sort of tagged along. The tour included a 2 mile bike ride to the cenotes,(if you don't know what a cenote is, google it!) a demonstration by a Mayan Shamen regarding his plant based therapies for the local villagers when they are ill. Swimmining in the cenotes, and finally....Lunch! I must say it was the best part...maybe because we were starving and had rode bikes 4 miles at this point...but it was a beautiful platter of 4 traditional Yucatecan foods, accompanied by Jamaica, a red drink made from Hibiscus flowers (pronounced Ha-mi-a-ca). Full of antioxidants!
