    Just FYI, I've got a wicked case of sea lice after swimming in Puerto Morelos yesterday. Better swim naked.

    :D

    Off to put socks on my hands so I don't scratch......

    Strange Kelly because we were there on Saturday and Evan got a very itcy rash from the sea. I thought sea lice but like Steve says its very late for them. What else could it be?

    It is late in the season but technically they are still "in season". It's exactly like I've had before, only in the bikini area, same spots, same itch. I guess it could be something else, but in my experience it sure feels and looks like the little buggers. One of the other guys we saw that day has the same thing too, developed about 24 hours after swimming. Blech!
