Buenos diaz,Ayer...a long day! The tour van picked me up at 6:30 en la manana 
and I didn´t get back till after 7:00. In those hours we drove and hiked through the jungle (didn´t see any monkeys, though), we rappled down into a cenote, zipped over an alligator-filled lagoon on a flying fox (zip-line), had an authentic Mayan feast and explored the Mayan Ruins of Coba. I was exhausted! This is the cenote we rappled down into. We were a group of 13 and our tour guide, a very good one, with the AllTourNative Tour Company. They do various adventure tours, combined with the culture and employ lots of native Mayan people into their activities.

Here are some ruins of Coba, I have more photos, but it is taking a long time to upload them. I still haven´t quite mastered my camera, though. I must read more about it today.So, today, I´m taking it easy with a massage at a swanky, upscale resort in the hotel zone and hanging out at their spa. Not sure wht I´m doing tonight, there´s a couple of places I´ll check out on my way to the massage. I figure tomorrow, most places will be closed for New Year´s, so I´ll just hang out at the beach. On Tuesday, I´m off on another long day tour down to Tulum and Xel-ha for snorkeling. Right now, I´m getting a snorkel tour organized for later in the week, before catching the bus (6 pesos) to the hotel zone.
Prospero Ano Nuevo to all. Matt, are you watching the fireworks in Seattle? Dad or Mom, if you could, would you please check on my cats, Cap´t Jack and Hermione. I know Mary said she would, but just in case. Just check on their food bowls, refill the water bowls and flush the toilets for them, please. The house keys are in the same place, I´ll email that to you so the whole world won´t know where that is.

Happy new year. We had a quiet one. Great pictures. It is so pretty and green and your wearing shorts and a tank top while I have been in a heavy coat, gloves and a hat. Yes, I am wishing I was there. I love the culture and the history of the ruins. I saw and Talked to your mom yesterday for just a minute at the store She is looking great. Keep having fun.
