Got up again in time to see the sun rise...Thank you Lord...
Not a single cloud in the sky-it was amazing. I took pics from my balcony. Laid in bed for a little while longer and went out snorkeling.
It was totally cool seeing these little fishes in their native habitat. A little school of silver and black, vertically striped fish were right under me...how cool....
I took a few pics only to see that my underwater "panaview" camera, guaranteed to be leakproof at 9 feet was not even leakproof at 9 inches. The film and camera were ruined. Maybe I can try again this afternoon in Cancun with a cheap disposable one.
Went for some breakfast afterwards, returned the snorkeling gear and went to do some laundry to prep for the Mexico City leg of the trip.
Arrive at the laundry place (which is also my local internet portal) and drop off some laundry and surf in the meantime.
Fifteen minutes into the laundry, the power goes out. I hadn't started to enter my diary entries, I was just surfing so nothing was lost. In the meantime, my underwear and a pair of shorts, soak.......
****TECH NOTE*** Obviously the power is back on and the cloths is spinning happily or else I would not be typing this. Only about a 15 minute delay.
