OUR 8 HOUR YACHT RIDE!


We had gotten a voucher last year for an 8 hour yacht ride for 8 people after Joe and Ree and Doug and Linda had bought their villas last year. We weren't sure what we would do all day on a yacht, but the time actually went by quite fast. We left at 11 AM and went about 20 miles out into the ocean to do a little deep sea fishing; we didn't catch any fish, but we did get to see some dolphins swimming in the water. We came back through Isla Mejures and anchored the boat while the guys got out to swim and eat shrimp ceviche. Then we docked the boat and walked around the island looking at the shops for souvenirs and had lunch.

We boarded the boat again about 4PM and the captain, Guellermos, and his helper, Ernesto, gave us a tour from the water making the way down the 7 miles of the island, where we saw the Rolandi Hotel where we come to eat, the place where you can swim with the dolphins and other points of interest. We then headed back to Cancun through the mangroves just in time to see a beautiful sunset. Our captain got a great picture of us with the sunset. So a good time was had by all.
