Joni and I have always loved traveling. One of our first trips to Cozumel
was in 1982 to celebrate the end of the school year. We fell in love with
Mexico, and have made many trips back since then. These pictures were
taken during our 1982 trip.
These pictures were taken in
the town square of San Miguel. We loved going into town for the day. Our
favorite restaurants were Morgan's, Pepe's Grill, and Las Palmeros
Mariscos Steak House.
At Las Palmeros.
With our favorite waiter Santiago at Pepe's
Grill.
These two shots were taken at La Cabanas
which was about 100 yards from our hotel. We would go there for breakfast
and they would serve the best pan dulce in the world. We would take the
entire basket and throw what we did not want to the fish. There must have
been thousands of them, and it was obvious that they liked the bread as
much as we did.
We loved our hotel, The
Cozumel Caribe. I have no idea if it is even still there, but it was a
great hotel with some fantastic views.
These were taken at Chancannab Lagoon and the
beach across the street from it. Now the park is protected by the Mexican
government, but back then it was a place where you would ride to via a
motor scooter and snorkel or dive to your hearts content.
