AM Rosie

10:34am CDT Wednesday 03 August 2005

We are in Acapulco! We're talking to Rosie, our tour coordinator for the day. She is going to get us hooked up with a scuba diving guy! I'll go with Angie and her boyfriend Ryan who drove down from Minnesota(!!) to see her!

She drove in circles on the not-really-parking-lot area in order to turn around. It was great.

Acapulco diving

1:14pm CDT Wednesday 03 August 2005

Today I went scuba diving (!!) with Angie, her boyfriend Ryan (who came down from Minnesota to see her) and Francois (who dove without a suit). We had a totally lovely time for only 475 pesos each (one tank per person) and I was under for about 40 minutes (my photos span from 10:59am to 11:36am).

I hope there are some pictures of Francois with fish. Like, "oh my gosh! that's a fish!"

Wheee!! My first pictures underwater while scuba diving!! I saw fish!

Angie, Ryan, and me with Francois. I should have taken off my mask / regulator for the picture. Next time.

Francois on his own...

We saw a turtle on the way back!!!!

Francois, what did I tell you about playing around the boat???

No shower

I'm glad we took a taxi back to the ship. Man; it would have been hot. I'm going to take a shower and wash Francois as well.

No water pressure. No shower.

awesome buses!

5:32pm CDT Wednesday 03 August 2005

Holy crap the busses here are AWESOME!!! We were bumping to the loud dance beats blasting from the system in back, and having huge fun watching the driver drink a slushy and the doorman holler at his friends and strangers to come ride. I met a guy named Dr Sergio who is a root canal doctor and an English instructor. He speaks Spanish, Yiddish, English, French, German, Austrian, Swiss, Hebrew, and Arabic! Holy fuck! He was super friendly and really interested in sailing on P-B.

We are totally bumping to Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy" dance remix.

Holy crap! The bus driver pulled off to the side of the road and his doorman jumped out and got a drink for him at a vending machine!

The front dashboard is covered in stuffed animals. There are bikini bottoms decorating the speakers. This totally makes me think of Jason Fricke; we would love bumping around in these buses!
