I hear you Sooz. I had not expected such a hard to reach cenote on the trip. If I knew it was going to be like this I prob would have chickened out :) I'm such a weiner sometimes, especially when it comes to ladders and heights - those are two things I can do without!! But what can ya do once you get there? I was not about to sit outside waiting while the other people are having fun down snorkelling in the cenote! And then there was my precious son. I did not want to say anything about it being scary, and didn't want to put my fear on him. So I bit my tongue, and with a lump in my throat and a very very fast beating heart, I slowly, like a turtle, began my decent. And I am so happy I did. It was wonderful once I got down into the water. The 'ceiling' is extremely high, so there isn't the feel of a cave once you are down there. It was the prettiest cenote too - so it was worth it.
Oh and btw - I asked before hand if there was anything in the water that could bite me :) And no there isn't :)
Wow, very cool. That water looks so clear. Even though I'm a bit creeped out (well scared, not too comfortable in caves) this looks really awesome, and I will have to get brave and check it out...nice to see pics of it!
