The sun is setting behind us as we wait for the dolphin show outside the aquarium. It is beautiful. Notice Elli's new little Mexican dress purchased at the market today in Playa Del Carmen. I am wet because I was splashed by a shark while I was petting it.
Elli saw the jelly fish first, but was enjoying checking out all the fish. She was so excited to find things in the tanks, like a seek-and-find game:)
This is the result of waking up at 6:12 in the morning and spending a big day shopping and playing. She slept the whole way home.
Brent's cousin Carolyn and her husband Ray and daughter Adalai were on vacation here in Cancun as well. They leave tomorrow but wanted to meet up. So, we rented a car and met them in Playa Del Carmen for a day of eating and shopping. Adalai and Elli played well together, even though both had their shy moments. Elli took on her usual mothering and Adalai was fairly compliant:) They enjoyed playing in the sand on the beach, running ahead of us to look at shops, and generally getting into things. Ben and Jerry's ice cream was a highlight as well as each getting to pick out a 3-D puzzle. Fun day.
Last night we ate at J.C.Captains Steak and Seafood. I had lobster tacos and Brent had grouper. Both dishes were very good. The restaurant looked like a grass hut and was on the lagoon. They gave a mosquito repellant a tad too late for me:) Elli put on a show, though quietly like we asked, and won over the folks around us. One couple just fell in love with her and kept talking to her. After dinner, we went into Cancun and went to Burger King since Eli refused to eat any of our meals for dinner. We did get some of the culture of the town though and had fun with our rental car for 24 hours:) Late night, early morning.
