Isla
Mujeres means "Island of Women"...I think it got the name because two
of the main activities there are shopping & sun-bathing...a woman's paradise! Of course it's also
know for scuba diving & snorkeling...we snorkelled, but not here.
We ferried over on "the people's
ferry" rather than the "tourist ferry" to get a taste of
the local flavor. Once we got there we rented a moped to tool
around the island...it was real pretty, but got a bit windy & cloudy in
the afternoon ~ that made for some real pretty pictures though.

We came across this "interesting" beach house... | |
|
|
|
|
...what were they thinking!!! But what a view! | |
 |
A little flora & fauna... |
 |
 |
|
...good thing we weren't wearing our lizard boots! | |
|
There were lots & lots of unique buildings...these two were our favorites! Love the colors!!! An entry to a house on the right & a fancy French restaurant below...unfortunately, the restaurant wasn't open, I would have loved to have seen the inside! |

This restaurant reminds me of a typical Mexican blanket...
Wouldn't you agree? | |
|
|
We always like to check out the local cemeteries in Mexican & Indian communities...this one was really cool! |
