Exploring Isla Mujeres – Day
Two
We jumped up this morning, list in hand
and hit the supermarket for essentials. Today the Visa card worked, good, we
walked out to find rain, not good. I sat on the back holding the handles of the
shopping bags, good. As Bear drove all the rain fell on me, not good and each
time a car overtook puddles joined me, definitely not good, but it did make me
giggle. Shopping stowed on Beez, it was time to head north and find the ice
cream man. Well water ice as opposed to Cornish cream but it was very
welcome. As soon as Bear had been served our chap
went back to reading the paper.
We sat quietly, enjoying the scenery
Until people started
zipping past – and getting stuck. Help was on hand,
but the rescuer moved so fast it looks like I’ve cut his head
off
Lovely ruin, stunning
brickwork but dreadful tyre-biting curbside
Up on the East Coast road, we saw some lovely houses
With a couple of
surprises – an egg and grass on the roof ???
Cannons used as
drains, whatever next
The coast here is very
rugged and somewhat unfriendly
The little
cemetery had a grand entrance and sea views
We stopped to watch
workmen and a chap fighting a pipe dangling
from a crane
Berger Houses
One Careful Owner and
lean-to
Not what we expected to see
on someone’s gates
Back in to a wet
town, Bear chose where he fancied a late lunch, Jax
Mucky boy stuff
We dropped our hire ‘car’ off and walked
back to Beez. Funny to see the sea to our right, the road to our left, the
runway beyond that, a row of houses, complete with wind
sock and just beyond the houses, the sea on the other side of the
island.
ALL IN ALL GOOD TO
KNOW WE HAVE EXPLORED ALL THE ISLAND
