First Days of the Trip

---

We are now in Tulum, Mexico. We are at a hostel that gives us a room, breakfast and free internet for 12$. Not bad! Although as we venture further south, it is only going to get cheaper and cheaper.

So far all has gone smoothly. We went to Playa del Carmen for our first three nights. There we visited Akumal to snorkel with turtles (see pics). Some chillin' on the beach and lots of snorkelling.

Today we are at Tulum. We went snorkelling today and saw lobsters, lots of fish and a HUGE eagle ray (about 6 feet across) that was eating the lobsters. A six foot barracuda also!

Some highights include Damian ordering hotdogs when he thought they were meat for sandwiches. Geremi getting his hand bitten by a pelican.

that is for now, internet is closing!

Hey guys, sweet pics, looks like you guys are enjoying yourselves down there. Pat, has there been any chilling in parking lots or drinkopoly yet like the good old days? Hope things are going swimmingly, watch out for those urchins. Also, do you think it would be possible to give some small geographical details about where the places you are, are? Something like Pacific coast, or Caribbean side? Cheers guys

Saluti!!
O visto con gioia queste fotografie. Questo viaggio ve l'avete guadambiato con il lavoro delle scuole. Questa sera, mercoledi, la mia casa e vuota senza di voi. Pero vostro padre prova a riempirla senza successo e senza rumori!! Le bombe questa sera non ci sono - tutto e silenzio e calmo!! Credo che i faggioli messicani vi daranno uno _____ pieno per bombardare!! Vi ricordate quando vi giravate verso di me e rimbievate la casa di bombe profumate. Baccioni e un abbraccio dalla vostra nonna.
