Day 4: It feels like we've been here for a week already.

So many adventures in just one day distorts one's perception of time. Our second day in the cenotes (Gran Cenote and Car Wash Cenote (this cenote owes its name to the fact that people used to wash their cars here)) was also very exciting and educational.

On our way back to Tulum, we stopped at the Maya ruins of Tulum right by the seaside. As it was already late, we didn't have the usual throngs of tourists. The ruins are definitely worth seeing.

But the cenotes were the absolute highlight of our stay here in Mexico! They are hard to imagine if you haven't been there yourself: Huge deep holes in the ground filled with crystal clear water and fish, underwater plants and turtles. Surrounded by a dense rain forest. A true paradise for aquarium and terrarium/vivarium enthusiasts.

Now it's time to dismantle all of our underwater camera equipment and pack. That will keep us busy till midnight. Tomorrow, we will be heading for the airport and then flying to our next destination, Costa Rica.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
