If you could be doing something this very moment… anything you wanted to do… without limitation… let your mind be wide open and GO… BE… DO… what would you be doing?
Swimming with the turtles in Akumal, Mexico, searching for my big buddy the Barracuda (see my pics at http://wcswingdancer.zaadz.com/photos), and looking for the big Moray eel that eluded me on my last trip. I realised then that my true, Cancerian water-child side was probably never happier than when I was with the turtles and the fish.

Ooh, that sounds like fun!! I'd actually probably be doing what I'm doing right now! I'm such a nerd.
I went there a couple years ago with my then BF - I felt connected there like no place I have been, even before we got on the plane. One of the people at the local Ecological/environmental associations looked at me when we were visiting and said that I would return…(she didn't include the BF, interestingly)…
I think she's right…..funny - Mexico is the LAST place on earth I ever thought I would move to until then….
I have a photo of one of the trutles I swam with on my wall in my office (which has a water theme throughout). I hope to see her again some day…
I went back last fall and found the Moray eel - what a rush! And I was privilaged to find many turtles, one female in particular seemed to find me whenever I went snorkeling.
There is something about the place that calls me…
I will return again
and again
and again
