Holbox Island - Day Four and Five (The Clouds) and Departure
Our last full day on Holbox Island was Monday and it was a bit of a letdown relative to the weekend as the clouds rolled in obscuring the sun. Still, even with a cloudy sky the weather was much preferable to the snow and freezing cold of Toronto! Monday was spent reading, wandering into town (window shopping; we ended up buying nothing on the trip). Dinner was at El Chapulim in Holbox (the same place we had dinner on Saturday night) and was excellent. Lisa had a surprisingly good seak and Christos had the seafood medley (Fish, Shrimp and Mussels); the fish was superb, the mussels and shrimp good. After a walk along the beach at night, we settled back into our bed and fell asleep watching "Suits" on Lisa's Ipad.
Tuesday we awoke with to another cloudy day but with no power on the island! This was a bit problematic as we had no water for showers and were leaving in a few hours. So our day of return to Toronto was off to a bad, stinky start and got worse with a three hour delay once we reached the Cancun airport. Ah well, all told it was not so bad (we have had far worse travel experiences) and the trip to Isla Holbox was well worth it; hopefully we have recharged our sun batteries enough to make it through winter.
