June 2024 - Back North, Bikes, Trucks, Boats. Summer. Surprise Wedding.

In this month it was time to get back North to my Toys and the Canadian Summer. A few last moments in the water and humidity; Secret Snorkel Spot at Akumal and Cenote Eden.  Ghost Dam Sailing and a Dawgs ball game.  And a Surprise Wedding!

I will miss you Caribbean...

Met this Veracruz couple on anchor from
my paddle board.  

Always love the mystic of
the underwater anchor

Spectacular school of Needlefish

Well, this is one way to handle the seaweed/sargazo...collect in one spot and let it rolling in after...?

What is the solution?

An afternoon at a secret location near Akumal.

No parking, but yes... love moto life

This looks promising

Very nice

Path way to the sea

Near the mangroves checking out the life 

Mangroves

Mission accomplished!

Secret Side Story: Invited to Daniel and Valentina's going away party I showed up at what I thought was a reasonable mexican time to show up, 7pm, even though I was told to be there at 530pm (weird time for a Friday).  Surprise, surprise, they got married at 5:30pm!!!  Holy shit!  So yeah I was 1.5 hr late for their wedding.  Sorry guys.

Congrats guys!

Great turn out.

Yep Val's is on a chair as she is
5'3" and he is 6'11"

A nice afternoon at Cenote Eden with Antonella.  A big and beautiful cenote about 30 min from Playa and about $12 usd.

A real treat

4 m jump for the kid, yeah!

Check the cave divers in the background

Excellently clear.

I'm so happy I could cry

Practicing some free diving.

Down 5 m for 1 minute.

Easy to feel like a superhero

Tight passages

Out to Okotoks for a Dawgs Baseball game. Was a great time!  All the players are from university teams and the level is like a double AA team.  Pretty

Committed to getting wasted

Go Oilers!  Game 7!

I thought this guy brought the

it was for wrestling only trivia...

Pinball was better than the trivia

Very rainy ride home. Only 
rained for my 30 min ride!
