Hi, thanks for the comment. Sounds like a nice surprise birthday present!! We were lucky enough to swim in a couple of cenotes (they're mentioned in my previous blog entry) - definitely lots to experience in the Yucatán!
yucatan spectacular For a surprise 70th birthday party, my son & daughter took us 7 of us to the Yucatan. 3 nights in an all exclusive over new years with fireworks in their lobby (New Years Eve); 3 nights in Merida (very fascinating as this article illustrates); to the ruins and into a ceote for swimming. (look up ceote). then to Cozumel to go snorkeling (beautiful fish to look at). Enjoyed rubberneckin pictures.
Ja ja! Lo que dije fue que algunas personas creen que debe ser parte de Nicaragua. Yo no opino personalmente, solo lo conté porque me parece que es una cosa que unos cuantos turistas de más lejos, como yo, no sabrá de la isla, y me parece más interesante que escribir sobre cuantas horas pasamos en la playa o cuantos cócteles bebemos... ;) Pero obviamente es un asunto delicado para algunos, y dejan que su pasión sobre el tema les confunde a la hora de leer cualquier cosa que menciona el asunto y así lo malinterpretan! Si a mí me interesara opinar sobre las disputas territoriales podría empezar mucho más ‘cerca de casa’, verdad?! En cuánto a las fotos de pareja, mejor os las mando que colgarles aquí el mundo no está preparado para verme en bañador ;D
NI caso... Soph, si tu dices que la Isla San andres es Nicaragua, yo te creo. No hagas caso a los "empollones". Está muy "currado" el Blog. Echo de menos alguna foto de la pareja... Muxus. Os y Mon.
Says some Nicaragüenses Hi Frank. No, I'm certainly not a historian! If you look at the blog entry again you'll see that it says "For some nicaragüenses, it’s Nicaragua, part of an archipelago unfairly allotted to Colombia by a 1928 treaty". I am not stating that it was unfairly allotted as if this were a fact, nor am I expressing a personal opinion. What I am saying in the sentence is that some Nicaraguans feel this. If you read the sentence again omitting the word "Nicaragua", hopefully you will see this.
unfairly? Says who, are you a historian?
Please don't make statements if you don't know the facts the dispute has no grounds for Nicaragua, besides if in a remote possibility Nicaragua was to take possession of San Andres Colombia would take a huge portion of the coast of continental Nicaragua; I doubt they would be willing to make that kind of trade.
