Weekend in Veracruz
... a continuous stream of container ships heading in and out! We had to laugh about it though as the "island sunbathing" didn’t materialise. We approached an island and were told something about it but as it was a nature reserve we were not allowed to land on it. But we joined several other boats moored on a sand bar, which was submerged in waist deep water, where we could swim or head ...
