IN TULUM,MEXICO COUNTING MY BLESSINGS.

OR, MY FIRST WEEK BACK IN MEXICO AFTER OVER THREE YEARS.

Just think what’s ahead of you when you arrive!

Long trip from London, little did I know I’d be travelling for over twenty hours. Harsh work indeed!

THE FLIGHT AND JOURNEY.

The flight over was truly dreadful, long very cold and boring. BA sure has changed and taken a nosedive in many ways!

Palms were nearly blown away

BOATS, SEA, SAND AND WET THINGS.

OR THIS IS ON MY MAIN SITE WHICH NAUGHTY OLD BIRDS ARE NOT READING. BAD BAD BIRDIES. I’VE ADDED SOME BITS, BUT THIS IS THE GENERAL IDEA FOR THOSE HOT WET TRIPS!!

Riding up to volcano in the midday sun.

Alert: In preparation for us escaping and flying free again.

The wet bits section…..

Nature reserve near Kuching at the end of the hike. No people swimming as a crocodile had been seen there that morning

Down and dirty at the beach. Swimming, snorkelling, diving, boogie boarding or just plain sunbathing? Onboard a boat for some fishing as well? Climbing and trekking around the coastline? Gazing out to sea? Breath in that air and get ready for your wet bits!
