Maybe he was having a bad day?

I imagine that some Mexicans find the tourists to be a bit much.  Maybe that's what this guy thinks.  Or maybe he was just having a bad day?

Who could blame the locals for thinking tourists are a pain in the a*&@#?  Some tourists really are rude and inconsiderate.  But I like to think that not all tourists are bad news. And tourism is the main source of income in Cozumel so I think most locals have a certain appreciation for our existence.

So I'm at this waterfront restaurant called Jeanie's.  I choose to sit at a table outside, in the sand.  The waiter dries of the table and a chair for me. Very nice of him.  It had rained earlier. 

I decide to go to the washroom before settling in. When I come back, my dry chair is gone.  Three wet chairs are left.  A young man who's the land watch guy for some snuba divers (like scuba, but tethered to land) has taken my chair.  Maybe he thought I wasn't coming back?  Maybe when I got back, he didn't know what to say?  Maybe his quick dry bathing suit really had to stay dry?

Then.  It starts to drizzle.  The watch guy fetches a big yellow umbrella and concrete base.  And places it neatly over his dry chair.

I sat in the drizzle for a while, hoping it would end.  It didn't. I moved to a table that was under a shelter.  Problem solved.
