MAMA BEAR FAMILY REUNIONS

This was our first year starting "Mama Bear" Family Reunions. Really, any woman who has children can be called a "Mama Bear". With that thought in mind, we gathered our cubs together to spend time. Family reunions are about reconnecting families, enjoying great food, sharing experiences, laughter, fun and making memories together. This was a trip, we will soon not forget. We are hoping in the years to come, other family members will join us.

Hol Chan Marine Reserve
& Shark Ray Alley

You will be able to get up a bit more leisurely this morning, and enjoy a nice breakfast. We will then board a boat (mid-morning), that will take us to the Hol Chan Marine Reserve. If you have snorkel gear, bring it. If not, you can rent it. Once we arrive to the reserve, they will anchor and tie off the boat. A guide will take you on a snorkeling tour of the reserve to include coral canyons. You will see a variety of fish, sting rays, maybe even a couple giant groupers.

From there, we will take a short boat ride Shark Ray Alley. If possible, your guide will jump into the water, and bring a shark for you to touch. This will be a great day for the kids. Be sure to bring your cameras, and sunscreen. Come evening everyone will be having dinner at Jyoto's Japanese Restaurant. Here you will get to try some new Japanese dishes that Trent has helped in creating, even a new beverage that he has assisted in making, to sell at the restaurant. Plan on going to bed early, tomorrow will be another full day adventure, and the highlight of your entire trip.
