San Pedrano Hotel San Pedro

... cool, docile and inquisitive creatures.  One manattee in particular sniffed around our boat for ages.  I'm just sorry that I don't have a picture.  My camera packed up in Cerres.  I have only been able to take one picture in Ambergis Caye, and that was only to test the camera. We stopped at a small, deserted island for lunch, which I liked.  The Americans had quietend down a lot by now, and some of them even seemed vaguely likeable.  We did some ...

... the world! So lots of snorkelling, swimming and just laying back for the next few days. We have settled into a small room next to the beach for only $30 Belize a night witch is cheap compared to else where near water. We went for a snorkelling trip to hol chan reserve, shark ray alley and coral gardens. So we saw lots of cool fish sharks and other stuff. We also saw a Mona ray eel witch was massive and turtles too. We then went onto shark-ray alley ...

... grins on our faces. That evening was lobster tail nite the washing machine drum sequel all the ingredients were bought and the excitement mounted even Steffi and Marten were going to cook sausages on our BBQ with some trepidation. They were heading out to the famous dive site of the Blue hole and didn't want food poisoning. To cut a long story short it took ages about 3 hours in total and by the end of it I for one was reasonably inebriated. Travis and Chika came by more ...

... is a storm in the area and it has a name...when it has a name, you know it's big!" Luckily, it sounds like she's fizzling out, but heavy rain and lightening storms are in the forecast. Yesterday I swam with stingrays yesterday and even petted one! When he jumped at my touch, I jumped just as much too, thinking he was going to slap me with his spine and I'd be a goner! But time is running out, and I must make the ...

... 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 want to see everything. After lugging my suitcase, my travel bag and me on the water taxi it was about a 40 minute ride to Caye Caulker. I enjoyed it soooo much. Got to the ...

Today we again met with Judy to look at additional properties. Nothing much. We wound up right back at the beach house to give it another look. We're really excited about it. Just gotta make everything work. Had cheeseburgers in paradise for lunch at Ramon's. Spent the afternoon on the beach, dodging a quick ...

... week. And what a week it was. We got a lovely little 'condo' right on the water with our own bikes to use for a week. We spent our time relaxing by the water, cycling round the tiny town, eating lobster and fresh fish bbq'd alfresco and snorkeling and diving on the beautiful barrier reef.

... atop of a Mayan ruin over looking the jungle was really amazing. I highly recommended it if you are ever there. After a full day at Tikal, I headed to Belize for a couple of days. I stayed two nights on Caye Caulker and one in San Pedro (It seems there is a San Pedro in every country in Central America ;-) I was spoiled by Guatemala's low prices so I was a little taken back to find everything in Belize costs just ...

... place that Madonna sings about in La Isla Bonita. I have to say, that yet again, I am disappointed. Not only can you not swim from the beach due to all the weeds in the water, but the amount of garbage scattered along the roads, beaches, even in the water is disconcerting. Sad that they are ruining such a beautiful place. But, it is HOT here (hence why I sit here in a/c typing this duirng the day!). And I figured that out of all the suggestions I got about my ...

... Very touristy there so I caught a boat over to Caye Caulker. Quiet, hammocks, becnh on the private dock. Hanging out with Mattiew(france), Lara(Montana), Yvonne(Dutch). Back to Belize City AM and then South to the Dangeerie? next city along coast. Highlky recommended part of trip. Even snorkellers can see tons.
