Acapulco
These white guano covered rocks were called Rocas Blancas. They are actually quite big. These were on the way to Acapulco.

Dolphins usually swim along with the boat early in the mornings. I (Roma) could hear their clicks and whistles from the bow.
|
These are not great pictures of a really cool experience.
|
I think the spotted dolphins were the mothers, and the smaller ones were babies who stayed close by their side.
|
Acapulco is a BIG, crowded, noisy tourist spot.
|
These are the famous La Quebrada Cliff Divers carrying a torch down to the base of the viewing platform where they swim across to climb up the cliffs and dive off. We don't have any pictures of the dives because they didn't turn out in the dark.
|
This is Francisco, one of the divers.
|
They have quite a few young fans who follow them after the dive. (Ed. note - and the ladies' eyes were glued to their backsides!)
|
This is a bronze statue commerating the divers.
