A hot morning in Cancun

by DavidAkin on Thu 30 Mar 2006 09:58 AM EST | Permanent Link | Cosmos

CANCUN, Mexico - Was at work this morning at 0430 local time here doing hits on the hour with CTV Newsnet and Canada AM. It´s now just 10 am local time and stinking hot. I´m not complaining ...
Prime Minister Harper is in a helicopter heading for Chichen Itza where he will tour some Mayan Ruins. He and Presidents Bush and Fox will be back in their hotels this afternoon for a series of meetings.
The security here is tight. Two Mexican warships are anchored a couple of hundred metres offshore here in the Caribbean Sea and Mexican Army soldiers are stationed among the sunbathers on the beach.
I´ll be reporting for Newsnet throughout the day on the talks.

My camera battery died and I forgot to bring my charger! Others have been snapping pics but posts here will have to wait a bit ...

Well, that's probably happened to everyone at one time or another.

Anyway, this has got to beat that election coverage! Enjoy!
