Another Day In Mexico



      Being able to rest well, then hike back down to the ocean and visit so many cool creatures is to live the daydreams I had in middle school when I was reading a Jaque Cousteau book.  I came across a flying gunard, pretty cool looking fish when they fan their "wings" (pectoral fins) There is a still here, but a video that hopefully you can see at a link (AVI) at the bottom of this email.  They camouflage well, so it was a challenge to keep sight of him from the surface.  He spreads his wings in the vid.  Tomorrow I have signed up to dive with some advanced divers on Columbia reef in the morning if the weather holds.  It is a deep reef at the southern tip of Cozumel and a little more trouble to take divers to, so not dived on as much as the other sites.  I am excited.  I will see if my little camera can handle 100' or so.  My niece and her fiance (Tiff and Zack) are in Cancun, so soon we will have a wedding.  I have to send you one more email about shopping at the Mega store here-quite suprising for this island.
