The Sun is Sleeping on the Job

We wake and eat at Luigi's again. Then off to find a bus to Belize City. There seems to be no room in the back for our luggage so we sit with our stuff in our seats. When the bus gets full I squish over and am joined by another person. Eventually as people get off the bus seats open up, but this man just won't move. Cozy. Smelly. Annoyed. We taxi off to the bus station. It is raining and our last trek through Belize City was less than desirable. We make it just in time for the ferry to Caye C...

room with a view?

We wake later than anticipated by the crowing of the rooster. Sleep was elusive but we get up and get our things together. I busy myself taking pictures of the area surrounding our abode which happens to house three generations of seemingly one or two families. We hope on a bus to Belize City via Belmopan, Belize's capital. After an uneventful ride we walk from the bus station to the water taxi station. We are quite hungry by this time having not eaten since the one option late lunch the prev...

Leaving the cold weather for a trip in the sun

Well, My suitcase is packed, bought my snorkle gear and I am on my way! Green Bay to Minneapolis, to Houston, and finally Belize City! Arrived at 3:00 pm the weather is so hot!! I just love it! After leaving temps of 10 degrees F I have shucked off my winter clothes and am now showing my untanned legs. I requested a driver to pick me up from the airport and take me to the hotel in Caye Caulker. Low and behold I was taken to the water taxi! I could have flown but why? I am on an adventure and ...

Caye Caulker

So we arrived to the Airport from houston at about 1030. Our taxi driver hooked us up by telling us to fly to Caulker instead of the water taxi. Same taxi fee from the int airport(~50 BELIZE). AMT in the Airport worked just fine. The municipal airport has two airlines. We took Tropic Air(~35US oneway) which was great and only took us 8 min to get to the Island. We walked aroud til we found lunch at Tropical Paradise Hotel/restaurant. The whole south side of the Island is very quiet so we deci...

Ambiance Caraibe - Des vacances dans les vacances.

On se croit aux Caraibes et non plus en Amerique Centrale. Caye Caulker est une petite ile au large de Belize City, dans la 2eme plus grande barriere de corail du monde apres l Australie. Nous avons decide de poser nos sacs pour une petite semaine...celle-ci fut prolongee de 2 nuits suite a notre magnifique plongee pleine d adrenaline au Blue Hole - 42m de profondeur, avec de gentils (!) petits requins de 3m de longueur. Nous avons profite de cet endroit paradisiaque pour faire un cours de pl...

The best part was the pie.

After another wonderful breakfast of fryjacks and bacon at Luigi's, Sarah and I set off to find the actual bus station for Orange Walk, being as we'd gotten ourselves dropped off by the side of the road on the way in and never saw it. Orange Walk is tiny, so after wandering through a large fruit market, we found it just in time to catch another chicken bus down to Belize City. We found immediately that Kate and Jason, a pair of friendly Brits from the Lamanai tour the previous day, were also ...

Caye Caulker and diving the Blue Hole

... of the reef, huge shoals of fish followed us on our journey (we later discovered that the dive masters were feeding them, it wasn´t just their curiosity as I naively thought!). At times we seemed completely engulfed by fish as they circled us. Just as we were starting our ascent, Ian pointed to me and made the sign for a turtle. Turning we saw him gliding along and as we surfaced we continued to watch him as we waited for the boat. It was the perfect end to a perfect day- well done Ian!

Tranquilo

... which I found by pure luck in a Guatemalan bookstore. Walden has been a wonderfully thought-provoking and relevant book for me to read while I'm down here, especially at this point in my trip. Now traveling alone, (Pat headed back to the States a week ago) I have much more time alone to think and reflect on life. But traveling solo has been quite fun, as I have had a chance to meet many more people along my way. I ...

Cucumber Beach Marina

We set off this morning for Cucumber Beach Marina which is a place we can camp at for the next week whilst looking around Belize City and catching up with some chores. At the moment we are parked up about 50 feet from the sea enjoying a nice cooling breeze as we write this. 14th.- Today we went into town to have a look around. The streets are quite small so it is a good job we did not bring the vehicle. We went down to the swing bridge ...

Fresh off the boat

... him, and stole the cards. That night, I slept with mine on my pillow next to me. And Tam took his and disappeared into the bathroom for five minutes. I exaggerate - it was actually more like one minute. Another comedian came on after the magic show was over. Not so good - he seemed out of his element when doing the family-oriented show. We went back to the cabin to pound back some rum and cokes (and to store the cards in the safe ...
