In all the treasures I packed, I brought a Bluetooth speaker, but didn't bring the cord. So we continued our search to find a charger/adapter for our music enjoyment. No luck. Several of the salespeople tried to tell me that it was broken and I know that isn't the case. At least I know I have one at home; the only question is can I find it?
We drove back to beach in Progreso and then toward the east end of the island. There seems to be lots of poverty and lots of new construction. No rhyme or reason to it. Some of these places for sale (and rent, it seems) are literally falling down. Other places are mansions. The beaches are not as nice as Celestun here on the north shore of the pennninsula. Not much risk of hurricane; too much erosion. If we bought on the second row, all too soon we'd have beach front property. In many places they are building break walls of stones and posts. These are marginally effective for now, but unsightly. We will check out sites like Home Away, VRBO and Yucatán Vacations as well as AirBnB to see about long term rentals. Buying property might be a wise idea given the unknown with our economy. But not for us and not for today.We missed sunset but we were back in Celestun in time for dinner at Nicte-Ha before we got settled back into Room #16.
