Now that classes are done, allow me to astound you with an account of our aquatic adventure in Cozumel this February! The trip was organised by the University of Alberta’s SCUBA Appreciation Club through Ocean Sports in Edmonton and the Blue Angel Dive Resort in Cozumel. Let’s just cut to the chase, it was a FANTASTIC trip. Our smiles alone should tell all, but if you’d like to read more, hit the link below.
Every time I tell people about the excellent deals I bartered for during my trip to Central America I’m met with guilty excuses about people’s meek bartering skills. For some reason many of my friends and family think that bartering is an unconscionable crime. This is especially true of my friends here in Canada, where bartering isn’t prevalent because big box stores don’t usually allow it. In my opinion, there is nothing to be lost by bartering and everything to be gained.

It’s been a year since my trip and I’m itching to write down my last thoughts on my Mayan Adventure so I can start planning my next big undertaking. The trip spanned 22 days, 3 countries and countless adventures. Because of the unreliable internet and the fact that I didn’t bring a computer along with me, I posted relatively few of the over 1500 pictures I took over the course of the trip. In the gallery below, I’ve selected some of my favourite pictures from the trip to help supplement the writing that I did.
