We took our time getting to Xpu-Ha more than 3 months ago. On our other trips we continued our touring on our way back home but we have seen almost everything we wanted to see. We missed a lot of Mayan Ruins, but we were ruined out. We skipped a lot of Cenotes (Underground water holes). They are all different and they are everywhere in the Mayan Riviera. There are no rivers in the Yucatan. The whole area is composed of porous Limestone, so that when it rains it all soaks in and is transported through underground rivers. When the limestone collapses into the stream it is called a Cenote.\u00a0 So a Cenote is a just big hole in the ground filled with water. The water eventually makes its way to the ocean. Many attractions near here have beautiful fresh water lagoons where the freshwater mixes with the seawater.<br \/>\nOn Wednesday the wind finally started dying down after having high winds and huge waves all week. I figured that this was my last opportunity to get in some kayak exercise, so I paddled over to the big Cenote\/Lagoon in Puerto Adventuras. I\u00a0 decided that I should also do some kayak roll practice since kayak season starts in March back home in Ohio and West Virginia, and I wanted to make sure everything in this old body was still working. The Cenote water is not salty but it is cooler than the ocean, so\u00a0 it was a good way to cool off on a hot day.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bcpoa.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/roll-300x160.gif\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/div>\n<p>Robb &amp; Shirley left early on Thursday morning to see some friends on Isle Mujeres, a small island just north of Cancun.
