Mayakoba, Mexico 2008

The grounds of Rosewood Mayakoba

When you arrive, they take you to your villa's private slip on 
one of these boats

Complimentary tequila in the room

Our living area - our personal butler (!) made sure our room stayed 
clean.  She even slipped a bookmark into a dog-eared page of 
Kristin's book and offered to pack for us.

Our private slip and plunge pool

Our stuffed chaperones taking in some rays

On a boat looking for gators, we only found 1 baby

We think we're cool, but we're really not

Before a nice dinner in the main dining room on our last night

Walking down the beach to deliver a package that
some idiot from Kristin's work made us drop off

Swimming with manatees

Manatees love affection 

Kristin got some too


Cenotes are basically underwater caves and sinkholes

The water is unbelievably clear and gorgeous

You might have to click on this picture to get the full effect, 
lots of bats

Dry land through the cave

Snorkeling in a cenote is seriously awesome, and I suggest it to
anyone that goes to Cancun or Playa del Carmen.  It was the coolest 
thing we did on our trip to Mexico.

Back to the entrance 

Kristin underwater

We snorkeled in this strange lagoon with statues everywhere

It is an inland lagoon with a ton of fish 

Here are a few hiding

On our last night in Mexico, we stayed in Cancun.  This is a dock
at our hotel.
