I liked Akumal

1^st day Akumal, Mexico– Oct. 8^th

I got to go snorkeling with my family. At first we just saw grass. Then we started seeing some fish and a lot of fish were around a big brain coral. We started seeing lots of fish. They were black, yellow, and blue. My dad told me to look down so I did and I saw an eel. The eel was green. It was opening and closing its mouth. The eel scared me. We started coming back out of the water. We started to look for sea turtles. My grandpa found two. We followed one and found a bigger one. I had a great first day.

2^nd day Akumal, Mexico– Oct. 9^th

My family and I went snorkeling at a place called Ya-Kul. Ya-Kul is a lagoon. We had a hard time finding a place to get in the water. There were striped and dotted fish. Also we saw black, blue, and gray fish. At first we just looked, then we tried to catch a fish but we didn’t catch a fish and then we started to touch the fish. Then we got to see a crane bird catch a fish. I liked swimming at Ya-kul.

3^rd day Akumal, Mexico– Oct. 10^th

I went Tulum Ruins, Indian ruins with my family. The first thing I saw were walls that were to protect the important buildings. The walls were crumbled. There were a lot of iguanas. I liked the good ocean wind. There were a lot of pictures on the walls. I liked the tallest building because it looks small in the back and big in the front. We got to see a very big spider. Also on the way back we saw a lizard that had a green body and a brown tail. I had a great time.

4^th day Mexico– Oct. 11^th

I went to the pool with my dad and my sister. At first we just played around and then we did some flips. After my sister and I finished doing flips we went to get something to eat. Then we played tag. I had a great time.

5^th day Mexico- Oct. 12^th

My family and I walked to town. We walked all the way to a store. It was a hot day so we got some ice cream. Then we went to a place that wanted people to protect sea turtles. We learned a lot of facts. I had a great last day.
