My full report will go on my website but I will post a short synapse here. Overall I had a great trip and the diving was great. All I meant was that the diving was a great deal like Aquarena springs and for anyone who knows me, I don't really like diving at Aquarena Springs. Media Luna is obviously much bigger than Aquarena and much deeper but there is more marine life in Aquarena Springs than Media Luna. There is better vegetation at Media Luna however. For me, both places are a photogs paradise, with the clear waters and great vegetation, you could not ask for better in that respect.
So, bottom line, was the trip worth the drive. For me, most definitely but not because of the diving. I also do a great deal of Land Photography. Here is where the reward came in and not at Media Luna or Puente de Dios. The Mexican state of San Luis Potosí offers a great deal to those willing to search it out. The environment is very unique and well worth many days of walking the countryside looking for the perfect shot. When I was not in the water, I was truly happy just meeting new people and taking photos of great subjects and great landscapes. Another reward was that the Orange blossoms were in bloom and they were everywhere. As I walked, all I could smell was the scent coming off these trees. It made the long walks much easier.
So, would I go back. Most definitely but probably not for Media Luna or Puente de Dios and probably not to RioVerde. The countryside is rich in culture and very unique. I have already started talking to my wife about a return trip to San Luis Potosí later this year.
For those who have never been to Media Luna, it is worth the trip down so don't get me wrong, but just don't forget there is a lot more to see than just the thermal springs or the waterfall. Again, this is just my 2 cents...
