As much as I hate this Jimmy Buffet song, I was able to experience a cheeseburger in true paradise- Cozumel, Mexico. It was beautiful! However, I found that Cayman dollars and U.S. dollars can amount to $20 difference! For 3 people to eat cheeseburgers at Margaritaville, $51 in Cayman dollars... but $71, yes $71 in U.S. dollars. RIDICULOUS, but it was a good one time thing. We went to a private beach in Cozumel, which was absolutely beautiful. A guy there had his pets- a toucan, parrot, a few pythons, and scorpions- and allowed you to take picture with them for a $5 donation. The toucan and parrot were all I was brave enough for. Gosh, they were BEAUTIFUL birds! The parrot spoke Spanish, which I found VERY intriguing. Thank you Mrs. Rhodes, I used what I learned from your class, and talked to a parrot!!! We also had all day snorkeling which is always fun. Unfortunately, I was not able to swim with the dolphins on this trip like I had hoped. It was simply wayy to expensive. However, I did enjoy a nice massage and facial, and bought some $10 nail polish from Del Sol that I had been wanting since August. It's so cool... my nails change colors when exposed to the UV rays of the sun, but inside, you can hardly tell I even have nail polish on. I have included a couple of photos here to give you a glimpse of my trip, but the whole album will be added to myspace and facebook in the next couple of days if you're interested.
