Greetings and Salutations!
A gorgeous<\/strong> day in Cozumel. Again -I- was one of the first off the boat (On the bounce Cap Trooper!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of the kind folks on the dock took that pic of me.

Cozumel: The best description I can have of it is that it’s waaaaay<\/em> overly-commercialized. I was not<\/strong> impressed. LOTS of the usual crap, Senor Frogs (cheap drinks and obnoxious tourists) TONS of bogus souvenir shops and obnoxious locals (hustling a buck) and the only thing of not was the Pharmacia… wee that there are three of them right outside the tourist trap area.

The pyramids (leastways the one I saw) was cool but TBH meh.r<\/p>\n\n\n\n

….and of course Iggy was out and about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THAT BTW is a stock pic as NONE of the Iguanas would sit still long enough to get a pic of… better either way as they tend to be ornery critters at best<\/strong> in my experiences from Guantanamo.

Now I’ve had a Hell<\/strong> of a time getting my pix transferred over to the lappie. The amount of time to do just ONE picture is insane, so yeah, Stock Pix (with the exception of the one of moi)

So I was able to stock up on some good meds at least.

Otherwise, when I get the pix I did<\/strong> get downloaded, I’ll share my observations and stories… one of which is “Never<\/span><\/strong> trust the Green Stuff”…

I’ll get into that later…
So off to dinner w\/my Fren
More Later
