Caramel1398 Posted October 12, 2010 #1 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Hello, Silly question, but a few years back on our visit to Princess Cays, one of the members of our group went to do a little exploring on his own. While walking around the island he found himself somewhat stuck in a black sludgy looking substance. He had to physically pull his legs out with his hands, that's how thick it was... Does anyone know what this was? It wasn't on the beach where everyone was hanging out... it was more of a tree/bush filled area off the beaten path. We were laughing about it the other night and realized we never did find out what it was! Definitely something we want to avoid on our next trip though!! Thanks!

MTJSR Posted October 12, 2010 #2 Share Posted October 12, 2010 My guess is mud, really thick mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted October 12, 2010 #3 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Had it been raining or following a hurricane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caribill Posted October 12, 2010 #8 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Expired coffee syrup from the cruise ship.......... Maybe it is the source of the coffee syrup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caramel1398 Posted October 13, 2010 Author #10 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Hmm... it's quite possible it's the source of the coffee syrup... they probably use our time on the island to refill the ship! Mud swamps sound most likely... or the tar. Guess we'll never know for sure. Then again, we probably don't want to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
u2cruiser Posted October 13, 2010 #11 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Perhaps these mangrove swamps on the map are really syrup coffee-growing swamps :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
