Harvy's On Their Hogs (Yamaha ATV's)

This morning we were up and straight out the door for the ATV Explorer tour.

You can see us below on our Hogs. These things can move and kick up some dust. We weren't going to buy the bandana's but then when we saw the group before us return covered in dust we quickly grabbed one each, and they were well worth it. They keep the dust out but also gave us more of a "bandido" look.









After about 45 minutes of hooning around we made our first stop at a cenote, an underground river system. It was beautiful, refreshing and well timed.



Second stop about 20 minutes later was a cave full of stalactites.





After about 2 hours we got back to the start covered in dust (see Samantha and I below).





It was great fun and we all enjoyed it. Kids were lucky that this place allows riders from 12 years of age up to ride on their own, other places start at 16 years of age.

Obviously we all hit the shower when we got home to freshen up. The kids then hit the beach and Sonia and I hit the bar downstairs (right underneath our balcony). It's a trendy bar right on the beach, think its called Zenzi. Had a couple of Pina Colada's and then Fernando mixed us a "Desert Storm" which had Myers Rum (which Sonia and I both love) and couple of other spirits with some juice. Fernando is a nice guy, he spent 5 months travelling around Australia so we chatted for a while. Might become our regular for rest of our time here.

Hope everyone at home is well, talk soon.
