We all held the baby crocodile, although I felt a little squeamish, but the kids did great, check out that smile on Collin!
Yes, I even held the snake, but I refused to have it around my neck, so it wound around my arm, Jay took some classic pictures of me, I don't know who was more afraid, me or the snake. I refuse to post those pictures on my blog I looked pretty scary. 
Our guide had a hard time unwinding the snake from Sydney's sun glasses, we were all laughing so hard. The snake really liked those glasses.
The kids loved the Aztec dogs (hairless dogs), they were so friendly.
The monkeys were a real attraction. Our guide explained that a lot of them were bought buy people who don't realize that they can't take care of the monkey as they get older so they give them to the zoo. The zoo then teaches the monkeys how to survive in a jungle, it takes a lot of time and patients and hope that they will survive once they are released.
Sydney loved feeding the monkeys
We even got to go into the deer pen to feed the deer. The deer were so gentle and very friendly, maybe because we had their dinner in our hands.
This was my favorite time, I could handle the deer without wanting to scream and run.
That night we went to a restaurant that was a little like a Denny's, but more pricey. The food was more American, (kind of like going to one of the States Mexican restaurants).

WE WENT SNORKELING!
When we arrived at Hidden Worlds they drove us down a very long and winding road to a path that we walked, also long and winding. The Cenote was at the end of the path, well worth the efforts. 
A Cenote is an underground cave full of water. The Cenotes were very sacred to the Mayans. Many artifacts have been found in Cenotes all through the Mayan Rivera. The caves are covered with beautiful stalactites and stalagmites. It was a great experience to see the stalagmites as we snorkeled under the water.
This is a person repelling down to the underground cave, we chose to take the stairs.

THE BEACH AT PLAYA DEL CARMIN
In the morning, Natalie and Jay went scuba diving so we took the kids to the beach. I got to take a quick picture of a wedding ceremony that had just ended. No matter what time we visited that beach, morning, afternoon or evening, there was always a wedding going on. Check out the Mayan costumes, they must have hired some actors to give the wedding a special ambiance.
Nana Donna and the kids just before jumping into the water.
Collin and Sydney could have stayed at the beach all day. The only way we could get them to leave was to talk them into going to McDonald's for lunch. 
A nice place to eat after being in the sun all morning. It was air conditioned and Collin was happy that it had windows and a doors.
When Jay and Natalie got back we had to check out Sam's club, so guess where we went for dinner? Check out Jay, he was enjoying his hot dog.....or not?
IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH TO MAKE US HAPPY!
