mexico : on the catamaran




















diapers & skinny jeans travel diaries, 2013.
caribbean sea, mexico - sailing on the catamaya
february 15th

 Here is where we swam, snorkeled, barbecued and stayed out late.
The wind whipped through our hair,  and the boat made some of us sick.
We watched the sun set and rode back through the darkness of the sea.
