| On the ferry crossing from Cancun to Isla Mujeres |
 |
| At our hotel, there was a perfect little pool with a long strip of shallow water where Kadito could run, swim, and play without me holding onto him. See video below for the live action version – "Mama, watch this!" |
 |
| Arrrgh! Inside a shark's mouth on one of the piers. We were having a blast, pretending to be scared, and just as I was about to take the photo, of course, he covers his eyes… ¡No fotos! |
 |
| The hotel had a (somewhat sad) little tank of slider turtles and Kadin loved watching them. One waiter let us pick up the littlest one but the next day another waiter said we couldn't because one of them bit a kid once. They aren't mean turtles so I suspect the kid wasn't handling him properly, but oh well, no more picking them up. I love Dito's wispy hair, necklace, and bare foot in this photo. |
 |
| We had a day of rain on the Island and so Kadito and I went to the bar to play some pool. We must have spent over an hour there. He loved hitting them, of course, but he also loved listening to them go down the tubes and running the tray to pull them out again. |
 |
| At the beach… popcorn was our favorite snack. Kadin would walk up and down the beach looking for the popcorn vendors. I love that in Spanish, popcorn is "palomitas" which means "little doves". |
 |
| The waves weren't very big on Isla Mujeres, but big enough to still have fun! I left Kadin's blue life jacket at a bus station by mistake and found this inflatable one at a mega store in Cancun. |
