23rd January
HUATULCO, MEXICO
Just returned back on board after a lovely day at the beach. Enjoyed my snorkelling ( what I done of it which wasn’t much ) but this cold can do one now, I’m fed up with it! Trying to breathe in a snorkel and mask when you can’t breathe through your nose becomes very difficult! If you could have seen me trying to get out of the sea in a bright orange life jacket which was 2 sizes too small so my boobs were flattened and pressed upwards under my chin, flippers, leaking snorkel, hair slapped down flat, bikini bottoms trying to escape and a runny nose and coughing like a seal !!!! Really not a pretty sight at all and certainly not elegant when trying to get up the ridge of sand to get out !!! I ended up on all fours crawling but the sea however is crystal clear here and so warm which made it worth while. Ursula Andres ( in the Janes Bond film) eat your heart out
