January, 2012 - TELUM RE-VISITED & XCARET

We take Steven to Telum, the site of the only excavated Mayan port.  You can see more pictures and details in our post on last years visit with son James and DIL Maria.


We then went to Xcaret, Mexico's "Disneyland".   We arrived just in time to float down the "Cenote", an underground waterway, before taking in the evening show.

We don life jackets and drift down the Cenote at Xcaret.   

The start is an above ground river.




A water fall provides a shower.



Steven & Sandra pause for a photo.


Light and air provided by "well" openings every few hundred feet.




As the sun sets we make our way to the auditorium for the big show.  The quality of the production rivals Broadway and the costumes are as good as any Los Vegas show.

Musician for the "pole dancers".




Great legs.




Great costume.




Great music.
