Explorean May 5-12

Sounds like you had a fun trip. Thanks for including all the info on FA/Explorean. I'm always wary of "jungle" locations because of mosquitoes. Evidently, I am a royal buffet for those beasts. Did you experience that in your Explorean location? That shot of your balcony made me shudder.

Yes, I’m still scratching a few spots. I honestly don’t think I got them on the Explorean property. I think I got them when we sat outside for dinner at the Italian place at FA. One of my sons serves as the banquet whenever we’re together - the rest of us are off the hook because he’s the feeder! I know it’s no fun for you mosquito-attracters!!

It's really bad during the rainy season. My wife is a magnet and must have had 40+ bites from dinner in the outdoor area at Explorean one August trip. Now, when we visit that of year, we stay on the FA side and stay indoors at dusk and dawn. She also got destroyed on the patio outside of the Italian restaurant (wanted to eat outdoors during sunset - mistake!).

Outside of rainy season we weren't bothered that much - I don't wear repellent but she does

Any time it rains on Cozumel, look out two days later. We just got back after a dry two week stay and the mo skeets were not bad at all.
