The weather this summer has been so wet. It is really what we can call " rainy season".

In the beginning of this year I saw the news which warned the increased hurricanes due to global warming.
Actually the water temperature in the ocean this year has been remarkably high.
I had been working in U.S. Virgin Islands for 7 years before moving to Playa del Carmen and been working in the Caribbean water. I actually noticed the warmth this year.

 

Big swell due to Hurricane Irma

Irma made landfall in Florida yesterday. In Cuba the day before when she was the closest to Yucatan Peninsula. 
Luckily we didn't get much impact except for unstable weather such as some heavy rain. But the beaches have been closed since yesterday. We got big wave and surge even though not much wind here.

Miki is going to be on the radio show in Japan next week!

 

Japanese national publice radio - NHK will have telephone interview with me and ask about life in Mexico. It is only 10 minutes interview and I wouldn't be able to talk a lot details but I will talk about cenote diving and a little bit about starting business in Mexico too.  I'd love to promote Scuba Freedom on the radio but it is non profit public radio and they would not like it. 

 

But!   It is Live show!    Maybe I just say it! haha....

Today I had a very exciting day off.  The unknown cenote exploration!!! 

My cave instructor has been here in Playa del Carmen for about 20 years and teaching cave courses at his own dive center. He is not only teaching courses but he is also an explorer. He has worked with some archaeological research projects and discovered some animal bones such as massive ground sloths from Ice Age!!!  

 

This exploration is also requested by a local who owns this property where the cenote is located. Luckily he invited me to join his team this time!!!
