Day 3: This shot was taken moments after we got off a cruise ship in Cozumel, Mexico, the middle of last July. Little motor scooters like that in the U.S. are more for fun, and rare in St. Louis, though one sees more of them these days. But in Mexico, or at least the island of Cozumel, this method of conveyence seemed as common as the automobile. We wondered, though, how dependable the freezer box was on the back in keeping the fish fresh. I'm a sushi fan myself and really don't think about from where it came and if it was kept the proper temperature. I just assume it is. I'm sure there was nothing wrong with the sushi this guy was delivering but it was an odd sight anyway.
Leanne and I really enjoyed our cruise to Mexico. The only downer was on our snorkeling side trip. I bought a point and shoot digital camera especially for this trip because I didn't want to be lugging my XTi everywhere while we were trying to enjoy ourselves. When I was trying to get back on the boat after we'd been on the beach I dropped the point and shoot in the water. Yep, it was zapped. But the memory card was okay and I ended up lugging my XTi everywhere for the rest of the trip.
I replaced the little camera as soon as I got home and even bought a waterproof housing for it since we have already discussed booking another cruise for next year. I might post more later I why I think its a good idea for a serious amateur and pro to carry a point and shoot camera.
