End of summer break: Arrecife Alacranes

 
 By: AlexSunrise : September 25th, 2014-14:49
Dear Friends, Lately I haven't been as active on the forums as I would want, and I apologize for that. Work and the travel derived from it has kept me quite busy, luckily with the end of summer approaching I took the time for a much needed getaway. The pl...  

Cool trip!

The food, the boat, the water, the reefs... This sure looks cool! Plus a dosage of mental sanity, scuba diving, and good food! Thanks for sharing! Great choice of watch by the way. That's the best one to take with you for this kind of a trip.

Thanks, Patrick!

The only down side was that once I got back, my mind could only think of going back out there! Oh, well, soon enough. Always great to read you! All the best, Alejandro

That's what the mind should think if it had a good time!

The number one measurement about how good a vacation is... How soon do you want to go back?

Ideally….

I would be drifting on a beach already, but in reality, and if all things go well, sometime in the spring. Here´s hoping for the best!

Superb trip, Hermano. I miss Mexico so much!

Nice that you got to get away to such an interesting place! Nothing beats a fresh hand made tortilla so tasty! This shot got my atterntion: Cool capture Alex! -MW ...  

That was one of my favorites, as well!

I am sure by living in LA you can get your fix for a tasty tortilla, right, Ming? Besides corn tortillas, have you ever tried the flour ones? Man, those are a slice of heaven as well, especially if Art can spare a couple of avocados from uncle Jake´s orch...

There are places that make some great tortillas, best ones I had in the States was when I was in Arizona. As for flour vs corn, I prefer flour but certain items taste better using corn. Art whips up a crazy good guac, perfect for some hand made tortillas!... 

LA is definitely in my travel shortlist, Ming!

Hope I can manage to head out there soon enough, as it would definitely be really cool to hang out and venture to those tasty places. Many thanks! Alex

This was the first time I went all hard core into it, as in the past I only spared a couple of days while on holiday on a beach. Needless to say, I am hooked and already planning a future trip to another diving destination. Hope next time is sooner rather... 

Great adventure Alex.

Sorry I missed you last time, but soon enough for sure! Take care, Alex

You are right, hs!

Specially in a remote place like this, it is quite pleasant to realize you don´t need a lot to have a great time! Cheers, Alex

I'm down for . . .

. . . the ceviche . . . . . . and cerveza! The topper, though, is visualizing the enjoyment offered by your Sub . . . . . . in its natural element. There's a special sort of satisfaction derived from seeing a watch put to its intended use. Thanks for shar...  

Absolutely, Art!

 
 By: AlexSunrise : September 27th, 2014-11:09
Wearing this Sub made this and other experiences even more special! As for the ceviche and cerveza, I am down as well! It´s just a matter of setting time and place! Hopefully Igott 3 will be someplace along a coast. All the best, dear Art, Alex

Thank you Alejandro.

A real splendid post. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Thanks, Michael!

It means a lot to me that you enjoyed it! Best regards, Alex

I find the ocean pics refreshing and the cultural bits very informative.

Now, in addition to wanting to experience that pristine water, I want to taste Chaya Lemonade among other things. Great to see you posting after a big while. Ruckdee

My pleasure, Ruckdee!
