Barcelo Caribe

For the last five years now, Lil Annee and I have been taking off for the warmer climes of Mexico during the winter, to partake of lots of sunshine, warm beaches, and muchos margaritas.

Cozumel

On our previous visits, our explorings consisted of visiting historic sites in Quitana Roo and Yucatan. This year we wanted to do a day trip to Cozumel Island . . .

Water Sports

There were lots of water options at Barcelo. The two huge fresh water pools provided plenty of swimming opportunities sans sandy bathing suits.

Punta Allen

South of Barcelo, near Tulum, a two lane road turns off to the sea, then swings south down a narrow peninsula for 50 miles to the small fishing village of Punta Allen. Most of the road lies within the Sian Kian biosphere ecological park . . .

Playa

One afternoon we headed into Playa Del Carmen for shopping and dinner. Our taxi dropped us off at the newly completed shopping mall close to the ferry docks, and Annee & Sherril took to doing what they do best . . .
