Celestun!

We had a great day in Celestun today. We woke early for breakfast at the Hotel Hacienda de Merida to hop on a tour bus headed west to the sea. We saw some beautiful things and some pretty villages. We later got on a boat and toured the mangroves, saw nests of termites and were warned of crocodiles and boas. It was beautiful. We saw the flocks of pink flamingos (do they come in other colors?). We were told how they come to become pink – there is a worm they eat that turns them pink (they begin life white).

Later we headed to the beach. We had fish and shrimp for lunch and then took a walk on the beach. The beaches in Celestun are absolutely beautiful – a sort of mix between San Carlos and Cancun.

    Yeah…that looks pretty lame. I’m glad we couldn’t go!

    I think I deserve to go there next year. Good choice, Ryan.
