Cozumel Day #3

Saturday morning we woke up early again to catch the ferry over to cozumel.  It's about a 40 minute ferry ride over to the island and we wanted to spend the day there. We were excited to go over to Cozumel to do some snorkeling.  They said some of the best snorkeling is over in Cozumel. Again we had some issues with direction and finding parking but overall we made it in time and soon we were on the ferry heading out.  I  was a little nervous about the boat ride because of my motion sickness, but I  barely felt it on the way there and it was great.  We got off the ferry and found a taxi that could fit all of us. We ended up on a private beach with access to snorkel gear, pool, chairs, and bathrooms, so we paid a little bit more then we would have liked but new we would spend the day there.  We headed straight into the ocean with our snorkel gear and saw so many fish the highlight for most of us was the baracoda we saw.  It was the biggest fish we saw of the day.  Lots of colorful fish.  It got a little windy and the waves were a little choppy so I only lasted about 40 minutes in the ocean, that and Landon does not like the salt water so he wanted out pretty much as soon as he put him head underwater.  Preston was nice and patient with him and helped him with his goggles and snorkel gear.  After some time snorkeling they have these 3 pools right by the restaurant you can use so the boys enjoyed those while I  watched them and the other kids did some sunbathing down by the ocean.  We grabbed a lunch and drinks.  We were all starving and loved what we ate.  Well I  did anyway I  got some chips and salsa and it was delicious.  After eating we did some more swimming and snorkeling and finished up around 3:00 so we could do some shopping and get on the ferry by 4:00.  We found some great deal on some glasses, necklaces, and jewelry.  On the way back the ferry was really bumpy and rocky so I  mostly tired to breathe and keep my eyes closed.  It was rough.  Landon wasn't feeling to good either, but we made it back to land and headed home we were all beat from the last few days of going and going.  We hung out in our condo and watched the olympics and ate some dinner.
