Blue Monday - Ocean Blue


Today is Blue Monday hosted by Sally at Smiling Sally's Blog. I have missed Blue Monday for the past month, but now that I am back from vacation, I am excited to participate again.
While on our cruise, I noticed the water was so blue down in Central America.


Here are some humpback whales that were playing next to our ship in the very blue ocean!The water and sky outside Cabo San Lucas was such a beautiful blue
Here are some Cliff Divers in Acapulco jumping into the blue ocean and wearing of course blue speedos! They were jumping off dangerous cliffs 130 feet tall and they get paid $300 a month to entertain the tourists!

Here is a picture I snapped somewhere outside Guatemala

I woke up one morning as we were pulling into Costa Rica and I was in awe over this hazy blue reception

    Oh, what beautiful blueness, and those WHALES! How neat that you got to see them. Also love the cliff divers and the wonderful formations of those rocky cliffs. Thanks for sharing. This must have been a fun time!

    XO,

    The blues are beautiful. It must have been almost frightening to watch the cliff divers. The whales are such fun to watch. We loved to go whale watching. Happy Blue Monday!

    Gorgeous pictures. I saw that same scene in Cabo San Lucas last fall. I wish I had some of that heat right now in cold and snowy Utah. I got your package today and I am just so thrilled. Everything is so beautiful. I'm thinking of doing my basement bath in pink and green so the heart will be so perfect in there. I love the tags. I don't know if I can give them away I love them so much. Thank you again. You are the best! Mimi
