Beach Days Are the Best

There is nothing like a day at the beach with good friends, sunshine, swimming and cool drinks just can’t be beat.  A table with a white table cloth was set up in the water for us to enjoy our drinks with our feet in the water. You actually do stay very cool even in the sunshine that way.

There is nothing quite as tasty as a beach margarita and with a banana boat in the background.

But to add to the excitement we had to take a ride on that banana boat.  Five of the six of us ladies decided we had never done this and the time was right.  So 10 folks got on the banana boat and the boat driver fastened the rope to his ankle and then swam out to the  boat that would be pulling the banana while towing 10 of us on the banana. Quite a strong swimmer.  He then climbed in the boat attached the tow from  banana to the tow boat  and we were on our way up and moving, well almost.  The tow rope broke reminding Vickie that this was her second water mishap as their water taxi died mid channel and had to transfer to another boat then and there.  But no problem the tow rope was retied and away we went. Got a fast, bumpy ride all around the bay and no one fell off. We were very proud that we all hung on.

I was very excited to try out my full face snorkel mask with my go pro attached only to discover the disc was full.  Oh well maybe Monday at Isla Ixtapa I can photograph the fish. Still it was a great day.  Signing off KO

I'm a traveler, not as frequently as I would like , but I plan on doing more. After working full time at Mount Rainier National Park during the summer of 22 I have decided to retire completely and forever. Prior to that I was semi retired as a Wedding Officiant I officiated at about 20 weddings a season, and with my small delivery service I handled the distribution of a local high-quality Home and Garden magazine . Prior to my "semi retirement" I was in corrections and before that I owned and operated a bail bond agency. I now plan to travel to new places and exciting places, getting ready to do that as a solo as the Senior is no longer with me, his choice, and I am OK with that. For hobbies I'm a reader and love my kindle. And I enjoy writing. View all posts by zihuathyme
