Gambitt I have swam with two sharks today, one of which was 5 to 5 and a half foot long, I just laid next to it on the white sandy bottom and took some pictures. I then watched it swim off into the blue.
 
I wanna go tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Loads of bacon, 2 eggs, 4 sausages, toast, coffee and orange juice.
 
 I'm set up for the day!!!
 
 Wossa has gone back to room to get ready for his dives - another 4 today!!!
 
 He'll need another holiday to recover from this one.
 
 Lobby bar ran out of Wassells last night, looks like they only had one bottle!!! -  fortunately there is another bar by the stage and they had some.
 
 Noticed last night that the lobby bar does not have a large 'range' of drinks - unlike Cuba.
 
 Wearher will be 30C again today - evenings are pleasant though, not sticky as I expected.
 
 Not long to go before you arrive.    Buffet restaurant is adjacent to lobby so if we are dining on Saturday when you arrive we will see you.    You get a small welcome drink on arrival anyway, but I`ll try to organise 4 tequila sunrises, 1 Wassells and I Vodka and OJ for you also.

Hola
 
 I am home now and I have just done the unthinkable.
 
 I unlocked my suitcases and tried to stuff more things into them.
 
 I got in 2 more pairs of shoes and 1 pair of water shoes.
 
 I have a little bit of over flow from my suitcase that will have to go into the second carry on bag for Bulldog.
 
 Unfortunately the over flow consists of bras and thongs so Bulldog, I hope you don't get pulled over at Customs.
 
 You will have a lot of explaining to do about the contents of the bag, jejejeje.

I really feel sorry for Bulldog.  Hope when you both press the light at customs it goes 'green'.   Mine did, but Wossa got a 'red' light.
 
 Fortunately all they did then was scan his three bags, not unpack them like they do in Cuba.
 
 Enough posting for now - 8.15am and off to the beach!!!!

OMG Bulldog!!!  You poor thing.  How are you going to explain all of those thongs?    :rof:    :rof:  
 
 I'm dreading having to push the button, I will get checked for sure.

Just to let you all know, we landed at 2.35pm and it was 2.45pm by the time we disembarked from the plane.
 
 Althouigh there were only 4 immigration points they were very swift.
 
 You then get organised into courtesy transport (about 12 to a taxi type van) and whisked away to the Iberostar.  
 
 You go through San Miguel and it takes about 30 minutes maximum.    We were here at 4pm so that was only 1 hour 15 minutes after stepping off the plane.
 
 We will be waiting!!!!!!
 
 Green for go but RED for Bulldog!!!!!!

I think I'll be joining you Bulldog.  I always get stopped by customs.  It must be the look on my face.     :dan:    :dan:  
 
 Just a few last minutes things to do, and then we just wait for our departure tomorrow.
