COZUMEL 8 APRIL





PHOTOS : Ready to go! The cruise ships and ferry at Cozumel. Playa Del Carmen. Alambra Hotel (white one on beach!)

Today is our last day on Cozumel – we are very sad to go! What a stunning place to stay and dive! It is Easter Sunday morning and we decide to go to church. About 20 blocks of walking, and we get there just in time. It is an English service and a local choir performs – beautiful! Back home we finish packing up and then go to Caribe Blu to pay for the diving and have breakfast with Pedro and Eyal. Both of them compliments us on Luc (and the highlight is when Luc says to Pedro “It was a pleasure meeting you” and Pedro who cannot believe that such a sentence comes from a 5year old!). Sad when we finally have to go - Pedro and Eyal really made us feek at home and like VIP´s! Now we have a travel with all our luggage and my backpack feels 20 time heavier than it did when we left! We get the ferry to Playa and then walk the 5 blocks to our new hotel – Hotel Alambra. The hotel is situated on the beach just off the boardwalk and we feel immediately home after the warm welcome from Angel. We go for a long walk down the boardwalk – the closed off cobblestone main street, lined with touristy shops and restaurants (and millions of people!). Seems that the party never stops here! We eventually have a great dinner at a Moroccan Restaurant, Matubs, and Luc gets to have Lassi and interesting food!
