Skinny dude from Wisconsin
We had been led to believe that we were booked on a private tour but were not surprised when we showed up and there were other people on the van. We just put another check in the scam column and loaded up for what turned out to be a really long day. The ...

Then there was the Canadian Cowboy...
On the bus Orange Walk to Belize there was this surreal appearance: at first I thought he was a local Mennonite (a bit like Amish), but at second glance he was too spectacular for that. He was an original Canadian cowboy, with boots, hat with ...
Fresh off the boat

Friendly Folks, These Guys

Dinner the first night
We were the last group to arrive in Belize City on Saturday. We joined a group of about ten students and a couple of staff members. We forged our way down the western highway in the blinding rain, and two hours later we arrived at Midas Resort in San ...
Day 4
... approximate schedule, but they don't always come within the expected time frame. I got lucky today, though, and made it back to Belize City before lunch. So I made it through the afternoon and set myself up for some serious yoga-ing when I got home. ...
Day 8
My training plan this week is a little different as my schedule is a bit screwy. I was originally planning to do some cardio tonight, but was supposed to have a meeting running until about 7, which is when the Embassy gym closes. So I switched to do a ...
We're Too Easy
... bridge to the sea front; Brent found wi-fi and I laid on the cement barricade that blocked the sea from wiping out Belize city. I watched black birds glide in the air, zigzagging across the gray sky from the wind thermals carrying them in circular ...
Ferry ride down the barrier reef
We had made the trip out to Caye Caulker partly to do the Raggamuffin sailing trip (it had been recommended to us) and there was an interesting side effect to this: it was a one way trip, dropping you off to the south, a bit like the way a water spout ...
Cat on water

... tender of the day we waiting for every last soul to board. We were all but sitting on each other as we pulled away from Belize City. I watched the shoreline and thought to myself that I will be back to Belize. I needed something to pick me back up from ...
Belize
We headed up to the sports deck to walk our mile and being our first time in Belize City we had no idea that we still park in Mexico. You could barely see the port area we had to tender so far. As we were getting ready for our bumpy 20-30 minute ...

Hello my Friends. I am a Belizean and I joined this Forum because many who wants to travel in remote areas of Belize that is very beautiful and attractive can't get to it, due to new changes or lack of information. I love traveling in remote Mayan ...
Great starting point.
This was my first trip to Belize. I made the trip with my mom and brother. Burrell Boom is a small village outside of Belize City, and is a great place to start. I stayed at Black Orchid Resort, which is right on a river bank, and close to lots of ...
