HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Well it's already new year for you guys but we are just about to start
celebrating the new year here. We have become very mexican already and had a
nice siesta this afternoon to prepare for the evening!

We are currently on Isla Mujeres a most beautiful place, very relaxed,
friendly people. Has beautiful beaches and is really amazing.

Today we spent the morning out on a snorkeling tour, we snorkelled over reefs
with amazing fish, coral and other underwater gems. Even as we were getting in
the boat for the last time a 1-2metre stingray swam under us. There is also an
underwater "art museum" (http://www.news.com.au/travel/world/human-statues-for-cancun-and-isla-mujeres-underwater-art-museum/story-e6frfqai-1225940715381)
which was interesting. The sunken VW beetle was pretty strange.

When we got back we hired a taxi to take us around the island (remember the
island is only 7.5km in length!) so in one hour we had traverlled the whole
island, stopped many times for photos and even called into the taxi driver's
house so he could see his family! The real reason for the trip though was to
see ancient Mayan ruins.

Having heaps of fun and amazing weather.
