The Misadventures of Wurzel Brummage: Giving birth to turtles...
http://brummieandwurzel.blogspot.com/2011/07/giving-birth-to-turtles.html
Friday, 22 July 2011. Giving birth to turtles. The sea turtle and a bucket of eggs. Cancun, part two. It was all splendidly supervised by a conservation employee who's job it was to scoop out the eggs into a bucket of sand and issue commands of 'NO FLASH' to onlooking, camera laden tourists. Some arse-witted brit thought he'd be OK and carried on filming by saying "Lights not on turtle, it's on eggs." Idiot. Looking knackered after laying 40 bloody eggs. Sleep well little baby turtles.

The Misadventures of Wurzel Brummage: Caye Caulker - Belize
http://brummieandwurzel.blogspot.com/2011/07/caye-caulker-belize.html
Thursday, 21 July 2011. Caye Caulker - Belize. Caye Caulker - Belize. There are roughly 1000 islands off the coast of Belize, we were interested in only one, Caye Caulker. It remains a back packer favourite due to it's cheaper accommodation whilst still retaining it's Caribbean culture. We were going there specifically to snorkel and to dive the famous "blue hole". White sand beaches and colourful huts. Dining on Caribbean swine. The first nights dinner. The beautiful Blue Hole. On the way to shark alley.

The Misadventures of Wurzel Brummage: Flores & Tikal - Guatemala
http://brummieandwurzel.blogspot.com/2011/07/flores-tikal-guatemala.html
Wednesday, 20 July 2011. Flores and Tikal - Guatemala. We left Mexico by taking a boat upstream for 30 minutes and we were soon in Guatemala. We were hoping to have a shuttle bus waiting for us but we were soon informed that we would be catching a chicken bus for the journey to Flores. It was a hot and dusty 5 hours in the rickety old bus which appeared to stop every 100 metres, much to our frustration. Chilling at a colourful, local restaurant. The credit cards arrive! The main plaza at Tikal.

The Misadventures of Wurzel Brummage: Cancun - Mexico
http://brummieandwurzel.blogspot.com/2011/07/cancun-mexico.html
Thursday, 21 July 2011. Isla Mujeras from our hotel window. Lucy, getting up to mischief on the boat to Isla Mujeres. It was an early start which proved to not go as smoothly as we hoped. Our captain left us sat waiting for 30 minutes whilst someone was " checking" his boat. There was something clearly wrong with it! Some whale sharks were bigger than our boat. Lucy and Barbara look on as the sharks pass by. Lucy and Barbara in the water. Under water with the sharks. Me on the boat.

The Misadventures of Wurzel Brummage: Bonampak & Yaxchilan, Mexico
http://brummieandwurzel.blogspot.com/2011/07/bonampak-yaxchilan-mexico.html
Friday, 8 July 2011. Bonampak and Yaxchilan, Mexico. The view from the top. Lucy at the steps of the main acropolis at Bonampak. The murals at Bonampak. Next up is the mayan city of Yaxchilan, which is only reachable by a 30 minute boat ride along the Rio Usumacinta. The ruins are nestled deep within the jungle and as sunlight pours through the thick foliage and the howler monkeys holler loudly from the tree tops, we realise that this is an utterly unforgetable experience. Stone tablet with engravings.

The Misadventures of Wurzel Brummage: Chichen Itza - Yucatan, Mexico
http://brummieandwurzel.blogspot.com/2011/07/chichen-itza-yucatan-mexico.html
Thursday, 21 July 2011. Chichen Itza - Yucatan, Mexico. The atmospheric night show at Tikal. Minutes later, the torrential downpour ruined everything. Many stone pillars, no longer supporting anything. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Http:/ toogreytogrind.wordpress.com. Http:/ welovecreative.wordpress.com/.

The Misadventures of Wurzel Brummage: Tulum - Mexico
http://brummieandwurzel.blogspot.com/2011/07/tulum-mexico.html
Thursday, 21 July 2011. From Caye Caulker, we took a boat to the mexican border town of Chetumal. The weather was awful this morning with a tropical storm making the crossing very bumpy and splashy. Once off the boat we head straight to Tulum, home of some particulary nice seaside mayan ruins. Ready to meet Mr Turtle. They were as happy to see us as we were of them. Still pestering the turtles. I think that I should have the snorkel in my mouth. Inside the cenote underwater caves. The tour ended at 2pm a...
