Think we'll go a little earlier in the year next time, before it gets so blistering hot and humid (although it was not nearly as hot as Houston there) or maybe a little later this year after it's cooled down -- since we upgraded our timeshare membership and have more "bonus time" now. (Ha, they saw us coming -- Mister just can't stand not being VIP-Elite-Platinum, if it's for sale...and, it was kinda worth it, just to have access to the better booze and food in the clubhouse.)
I hadn't realized previously that Cozumel was SUCH a diver's spot. I just wanted sand and sun off the Mexican mainland. Mister was a little disappointed that I wasn't prepared to engage in voyeurism of the deep (and wouldn't just go on without me). But, I've promised to buy my very own gear, get in my pool, and practice the unnatural act of mouth-breathing until I'm an expert at it, so I can snorkel and possibly go scuba diving next time -- instead of just gazing down at the water thru the center of the Hobie Cat while Mister works the sail and rudders.
I did manage to hang with snorkeling for a few minutes here and there, and it made me wonder why anyone would go to such trouble to see that they are swimming in fish poop soup. (I think I'm going to need a wetsuit to get past my contamination hangups.) I did see some actual fish, but they were acting like Piranhas at the time and freaking me out, until Mister told me they made good sushi. Then apparently, I was freaking them out because they left.
Generally, I was too busy relaxing and just enjoying myself to be a "photo-whore" (as someone put it today) so there are only a few...
