althea2you · 05-26-2008, 12:35 AM

ok... pictures! i found time !

here is a shot of my kids jumping in the pool... i show this shot.. not just for the showing off oif the extreme grace of my children!

but for the backdrop of which i was looking at all day!

this was taken on the patio of the house we stayed in... i so want to be back there... we will be making a point of going there every single year....

this is a picture of one of Mine and my husbands FAVORITE stops... on the way out to our FAVORITE bar/cliff.... this was a HUGE rock scape that actually got half of it washed away in the hurricane a couple years ago.. total bummer but it is still beautiful!

here is a cool tide pool or something that a bunch of the locals were swimming in when we were driving out to our fave spot... looks very refreshing and relaxing in there.. cool spot.. this was NOT there before the hurricane.. wierd..

and THIS is our favorite spot!!!it is way south of the island... its about an hour drive(very scenic drive) from our place to this place.. this place is the highest point in Cozumel.. this is Coconuts!!! it has a bar up there under this huge canopy type hut thing... then along the cliffs edge are a bunch of tables and chairs... the breze.. the view... the margaritas!!! everything is unbAlievable!!! its ALL sand with dwarf like palm trees....its great!!! we went there 2 times this year!!!! LOL actually the hurricane took a big chunk off the front of this as well.. didnt seem to take any of the bar area.. just a bunch of rock from the front...

here is my husband and i at Coconuts...terrible pic of me... but owell what are ya going to do...

thats it!!!! everything else is just family pictures... i actually took about 700 pictures on my camera, and then some more on the video camera... and i also have about 4 gigs of video footage from the vacation.. im quite obsessed with the camera i think...

althea2you · 05-26-2008, 12:39 AM

ok, here is a picture of my new little FIRST addition to my tank!!! i really like it!!!!

and then a FTS.. i changed the scaping.. i think i have it where i want it now... this is very close to how i originally pictured my scaping to look like!

so that s it!

goodnight everyone!!! have a good Memorial Day!

Dentoid · 05-26-2008, 12:46 AM

Beautiful shots of the Mexican coast! If that's you looking terrible then I'm Julie Andrews!

What are you talking about, you look great! You're on vacation with the wind, surf and sand in your hair. Thanks for sharing!

tbittner · 05-26-2008, 08:18 AM
