Flying Cloud Hotel Xcalak

A 3:00 am decision led us straight to Sarteneja. We hit the San Ignacio bus stop at 7:30 am met a local guy from Caye Caulker name Piggy. He was going to help us find the connecting bus to Sarteneja and split the cab fare. We got some tacos for breakfast someone was selling out of their hatchback, yummy! As usual we met some pretty cool locals a...

Belize! What a story! It started the first minute I entered the country, right at the border. As you are all aware, having read my past experience in Central America, it was rainy season down here. When leaving Flores, I was told that the road to the border was rough and very wet, but what I did not know is that the border crossing in between Me...

We woke up at 6 AM to make sure that we had time to make our way over to Glenda's for cinnamon rolls and then time to get ready for our first real ocean dive (not counting our certification dives). We wandered west to Glenda's, but it was still closed at 6:30 and we didn't see any hours posted. We had seen Amor y Cafe while we were wandering aro...

Woohoo we're in sweet sweet Belize now! Our first two weeks in the country have been a 'discovery trip' travelling round some of the different cities in Belize and learning about the people and country... awesome =) On our elective it's me, Nicola, Jono, Jodie, and a student from Scotland called Kathryn who's good fun. Hehe so it's husband Jono ...

My first day on Caye Caulker was spent sleeping. I know this doesn't play very well into the discover and explore model that I had previously established, but I was plum tuckered. I settled myself in for a day and night of sleep that would be amazing. 18 hours later, I crawled out of bed, out the hotel I was staying in, and then I would move ont...

Day 1 (8th June): Depart London Heathrow via New York. After some last minute clearing up and packing at Fraser's house, we were on our way! We quickly met with Andrea's cousins at Newark Airport, but were a bit too tired to be much fun. We then headed to our hotel for a quick nap before our early morning flight to Belize. Day 2-Day 8 (9th - 16t...

Hola de nuevo! Hoy es mi ultimo dia en este pequenyo paraiso y ya me estoy arrepintiendo de no haberme quedado aqui mas dias, pero ya tengo los otros hoteles reservados y medio pagados asi que no me queda otro remedio que irme. Dentro de un rato me ire a hacer snorkeling en un velero de 10:30 de la manyana hasta las 5:30 de la tarde. Parece ser ...

Yesterday, was one of our "at sea" days. All we did was lay out. No really. We met some cool guys at the bar the night before. It's funny because all the singletons gather at the watering holes on the ship. So, we pretty much just hung out with them. We drank all day....and all night... Today, our port of call was Coral Cay, Mexico. For our excu...

I took a transfer to another ship called the Ecstasy. We did a crapy run back and forth from Texas to Mexico for 5 months. Had an excellent time with my girlfiend Sabrina! She rocks! Made the time pass smoothly. Plus Got a PADI certificate to dive. Pic of Sabrina is attached she is the Hottie with the Blue Hat on!

Bueno doncs la seguent parada es Mahahual, un poblet que basicament consisteix a una carretera de uns 8 km de llarg sense asfaltar. Alla seguint la guia "Lonely Planet", que per cert per centroamerica no esta gaire be, buscavem un camping on plantar la tenda. Una dona ens va recollir a la carretera i ens va avansar una mica, pero feia molta calo...
