Cozumel

In Cozumel, we decided to rent a jeep and explore on our own.  We got about half-way around the island then the jeep wouldn't start.  Luckily, after some prayer, it finally started but it kept stalling, so we took it back to Alamo and fortunately were able to trade for a different one.  We had lunch at a little restaurant on the beach, then found a nice little lagoon to enjoy the rest of the afternoon.  I guess our sunscreen worked pretty well, because I only got a slight burn on a couple spots I missed, and barely tanned on the rest.  Oh well.

Scott took this picture because we couldn't figure out how they could get the helicopter on or off that tiny space.  It's hard to tell from this angle, but that white ball would be in the way I think

I found this on the beach where we started having problems with the first jeep.  This shoe must have been in the ocean for a while before it got washed up, since it had all these little creatures growing on it.  We tried to save them, but the shoe just came back

We saw a couple blowholes in the rock formation

and some hermit crabs and snails in the tidepools

Aren't the hats awesome?!?

Of course Scott needed a picture of the Mexican military aircraft

this is the closest we got to an iguana

This is mostly what I did after lunch.

Scott explored the water a little more

The water was gorgeous, I think Cozumel had the clearest water- this is right at the pier we were docked at.
