El Caribe

The Caribbean, first sighting, last moments in Mexico.
A tourist fun park on the first few layers, but to follow smells and sounds into sandy backstreet shacks leads one to something more alive and enduring.

I figured a list would suffice for these few  days..

white. tourqouise. mojitos. daiquiris. turtles. coral. frivolity. son jarocho. salsa. insufferable gringos. shonky deals. overpriced coconuts. sweat. sunburn. palms. lizards. crystal. caves. light.

Although, by night, when the masses have receded, and the velvet remains intact but for a body or two, she is a different sea, under a different sky.
