Well, that was a non-event, lol. Not even any big winds, not a darned thing happened. A bit of a let down but more of a relief than anything. I think it proved that Cancun is absolutely prepared for a catastrophic hurricane, everyone calmly gathered their supplies, got as many tourists out as possible and battened down the hatches. It might be a case of the Boy Who Cried Wolf, but I for one am glad for the drill. If we are going to live in an area prone to such events, it’s good to know that we can handle them. Thanks to the residents of Cancun, all my friends here and our online support, thank you all.
It appears that Dean hit land around Majahual, a good thing in terms of the amount of damage he could do. He stayed away from really populated areas, now we just need to see what the environmental damage will be. Yes, there are people living in that area and I hope they are all safe and sound and under the protection of the government of Quintana Roo. We actually just saw a weather report that is predicting a partially sunny day, so I guess it’s back to normal for us in Cancun.
