Fishing on a cloudy day

I confess that most of the photos I show of the beach are taken on sunny days. Here is an exception. I took this photo of a man fishing in the surf of Playa Langosta in the late afternoon after some tropical storm clouds had rolled over the sea. During this time of year in Tamarindo, you can have weather such as sunny, blue skies in the morning and in the afternoon weather as you see here might occur.

The man doing the surf fishing is a Canadian who has a condo a couple of blocks from the beach and who is building a house on the beach. I guess in the future it will be easier for him to dash into the house if one of the clouds brings some rain to the beach.

Today is Sunday, so we have new photos posted on Viva la Voyage, our travel photo site. We are showing photos of Chichen Itza, the large Mayan site in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.

Looks dangerous to me! What a lucky man to have a condo and watch the sunset every evening with a drink in his hand ( well, that's my imagination).
