Unlike the Northeast, the weather in Akumal was just wonderful for this party.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yup. This must be the place. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
They are anxiously awaiting Santa's arrival. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Maggie, excitedly shouts, "I see his sleigh. Here he comes". |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yes. It is Santa. Here he comes. He's going to land on the new landing ramp by the pueblo. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A little tired from his long journey, but he is here in Akumal. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Being the first ain't always easy, and this one let Santa know it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But all the other children lined up, awaiting their turn to talk with Santa. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Christmas tree has snow on it!! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"How did you know what I wanted?" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Santa just has that effect on some of the children. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Looks like everyone is having a real good time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Santa, your beard tickles." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only in Akumal do you need a sun hat for Christmas. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
Unless, you are the official photographer, Didier Jackson. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The crowd is thining out, and Santa has thought of his present . . . . . |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
... a little R&R on Akumal Beach. |
