Agua Fría y Bonita



The mesmerizing, multi-colored waters of Bacalar create a breathtaking contrast against the land and sky. Cool and refreshing, they offer not only a visual spectacle but also a serene escape. This natural wonder is a true testament to the stunning beauty of Mexico, captivating all who visit with its vibrant hues and tranquil charm.

Frida Kahlo


This vibrant mural adorns a sea wall as you disembark from your cruise ship in Costa Maya, Mexico. It pays tribute to one of the most renowned Mexican artists, whose influence has endured through generations. Her presence continues to be felt across various forms of media whenever Mexico is represented—even making a cameo in Disney’s Coco. I often wonder what she would think of her lasting legacy and how she continues to embody Mexican culture with such grace and beauty.

Lagoon of Seven Colors


Nestled about an hour from Costa Maya is the town of Bacalar.   Bacalar is the namesake of Lake Bacalar known ass the Lagoon of Seven Colors.   It is a freshwater lake fed by underground springs.   It is relatively shallow in most areas giving way to cenotes that are hundreds of feet deep.    The reputation for having seven colors comes from the fact that the water being so clear shows as many shades of blue depending on how deep the water is.  It goes from a greenish blue, to a light blue, all the way to a deep dark blue.  Lake  Bacalar is also known as one of the homes of Stromatolites; one of the oldest extant lifeforms on Earth.   

Of all the places I have had a chance to visit, this one is by far one of the most beautiful.

Toes in the Water


I've always been drawn to the beach; this particular beach is in Cozumel, Mexico at the Chankanaab. Adventure Park.   As I had to work today, this is where I wish I was... or better yet, where I was going for at least the weekend.    

Just grab one of those chairs and get a nice strong fruity drink

Scenic Sunday



The jungle grows around the faux Mayan Ruins on Cozumel, Mexico's Chankanaab Adventure Park.   The jungle and ocean provided scenic views and plenty to explore.  

Scenic Sunday is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and share the breathtaking beauty that surrounds us. Whether it’s the serene stillness of a forest, the vast expanse of a desert, the rhythmic waves of the ocean, or even a charming city park where towering buildings peek through the treetops—scenic is whatever moves you.

Take a moment to showcase the views that inspire you, bring you peace, or simply make you pause in awe. Don’t forget to share your post and link back so others can join in the journey. Let’s fill Sunday with scenes that stir the soul.
