A beautiful morning's view...
The morning sun just caressing our chairs by the pool...
I can't surpress the desire to just head to the beach...
But what's that sound? ... the sound track from Jaws? ... dundun, dundun, dundun...
Noooooooo! It's all back again!
The accursed Yucatecan seaweed has returned overnight!
As far as the eye can see... to the West...
... and to the East...
By my approximation... I raked an ~10m deep swath ~1m wide from the sand to the waterline that was ~1/3m deep = ~3 cubic metres. Our house is at Km 17, so from Progreso to our house there is ~50,000 cubic metres of seaweed...
...every morning... sigh!
Bryan has provided me with a link to the potential answer to this problem, which only really occurs during the winter months down here.
Is Seaweed the Future of Biofuel?
Really, once you cross over the seaweed barrier through my path, you're into the warm Gulf waters! There's always the pool, too! :-)
Next blog will be about our trip to Celestun and the Flamingo sanctuary!
Missing you all,
Love,
