Bob and Elaine's journey through the Caribbean. Posted by: Mar Azul Adventures. June 7, 2013. N 20 49.8′ W 86 53.3′. El Cid Marina, Puerto Morelos, México. Roatan fades into the distance. Then the cameras were put away until the seas calmed. Have I mentioned that sea travel in a small boat can be brutal? A brief respite on the Chinchurro Bank at Cayo Norte. Cozumel in the distance, and another land mass to help shelter us from the big waves. We were surprised that there was little boating traffic here.

Although the creation of this Internet Website is one of my chief occupations as we cruise, the irony is we have almost no exposure to the Internet ourselves! In the Updates, we include the website addresses for places we visit as we come across them, but we virtually never get the chance to look at them ourselves. The same goes for the websites by other cruisers. However, if you are reading this, then you do have the connection that defines our age! Mdash; NOAA weather faxes. Mdash; Panama Canal Info.
