    So we went down to Cancun again this year to scope out a few places we missed going to last year. The original thrill was gone - I almost felt like a local. But nevertheless, we had a pretty good time seeing the new spots. Here are some pics that I took(my wife took some of her own, I'll post a few of those when I get them):


    I got started in a hurry by depleting our supply of Coronitas in the minibar within 5 minutes


    Your typical wildlife(squirrels are to the US as iguanas are to Mexico) In my opinion, iguanas are the perfect wildlife to take photos of, they never move! -


    Ahh, no hurricanes in sight!


    Knocking back a real man's drink.


    An underground cenote(50 meters deep!) where I went snorkeling(cold water...brrrr!) -


    Another cenote(didn't swim in this one) -


    Friendly lizard with a loooong tail -


    This must be the largest flag in Mexico. I swear it is not Photoshopped!


    Feeding the "regular" ray on Isla Contoy -


    Lunch on Isla Contoy. Like I said earlier, iguanas are like squirrels in Mexico - damn little beggars...


    This type of jellyfish totally surrounds Isla Contoy(tons of them) -


    Posing for us -


    Hotel sign on Isla Mujeres(I had to back up and take this pic, thought it was too funny) -


    Cemetary on Isla Mujeres -


    Can anyone translate what this means? Where this sign is, there are a bunch of run down shacks like you see in the picture. It seems to be a separated type of community(collective?).


    And like Lady Lee posted on her thread, there were a few herons on Isla Contoy as well -

    Whenever I get the SD card from my wife's camera, I'll put up a few more that she took.

    Great pics! I'm not sure about those there lizards though. I'd be spending most of my time running around in a frenzy screaming at the top of my lungs. Thanks for sharing!

    Nice photos...Been to Cancun many times with the family. Swimming in the canote under ground stream was a wonderful way to cool off on a hot day.

    It looks beautiful!! My Spanish is sketchy or I'd translate the sign.

    The cemetary pic is interesting--thanks for that!
