Every night most of the campers stop over our patio for Happy Hour. Sometimes it extends almost to 2 hours. But it\u2019s fun to get together to see what anybody did that day or what they are going to do tomorrow.<\/p>\n

\"HappyHour<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is the group. Starting on the right is Gerry Wright, Peggy Kobak, Mike Jones, Elaine Cundiff, Rob & Shirley , Reed Cundiff, Helen Tempesta, Pat Jones, and Ann Wright. There are a few regulars missing Paul Tempesta, Carol & Richard, and of course I took the picture. Helen invited Peggy to go with her to Playa and do some grocery shopping on Monday.<\/p>\n

On Monday morning the winds had died and there were very few waves so since Peggy is going shopping I decided to take a long kayak paddle with my short whitewater boat. I paddled all the way south to just outside of Akumal near the Yal-Ku Lagoon.\u00a0 It took almost 1-1\/2 hours and the wind was picking up and the waves were building, so instead of paddling into the Lagoon I started right back to Xpu-Ha. I\u00a0figured it was about an 11 mi. flat-water paddle which was all the exercise I needed. I beat Peggy back by 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

Just when I was leaving I saw this unusual \u201cWatercraft? Helicopter?\u201d. The water power was obtained from a jet ski attached to the big hose. He steered himself with the two jets that he held in his hands. I wonder if he was trying to sell this to the resort or what was going on? Never saw anything like it ever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
