February 2025 - Beach and Sea time, Back and Motorbike under repair

In this month I was fully back to the beach, fixed my back, sorted motorbike issue via Alaska part and the usual odd moments. Plus I started teaching favourite restaurant staff English.

Let's start with beach and sea my favourite part of Playa del Carmen.

Getting busier at Coco or people are getting
lazier?? Used to see only 5-7 scooters.

Many cases of trees taking back the street

How long will this last before it collapses

Still pretty good at Coco

Lobster hiding

took a few photos to get a good shot

Love watching the divers from above

must be about 12 m of water below me

Reef 88

Sting ray

I hadn't spent much time at Reef 88 as it is quite a distance, but worth it.

The sky divers taking over the beach for an hour at Coco.

Finally a calm day

And the rest of the month in random photo storytelling...

Going to be pricy to ship from Alaska.
Found various shocks, a couple in Mexico in 
horrible condition for cheap, but decided to
go with a virtually new one in Alaska. I found
a Mexican in Texas who could get it to me
for only $70 usd

Never used Mono shock 2009
