Hey, Sorry its bee so long since I've written, but the last few days have been kinda hectic.  We left Livingston for Finca Tatni, this beautiful jungle hostel on the 4th and spent two nights there.  It was quite the jungle hide away.  Gorgeous though.  We spent the 5th kayaking all da, and both got very very tired, particularly fighting the wind as we tried to come back.  Saw a bunch of spiders, played some anagrams, saw a couple toucans, an otter and a parrot.  Played a bit with a dog that can find his way back on a six mile hike.  In general it was fun.
Then yesterday we left finca tatin, went to livingston, from livingston to puerto barrio in guatemala, puerto barrio to punta gorda in belize, and then flew from punta gorda to belize city, and then belize city here to San Pedro in Ambergris Caye.  It was a long traveling day.  The planes were pretty crazy, very small, and very casual about how everything worked.  Some woman was just talking on her cell phone for a good part of the flight...didn't go to high and you could trace our progress on the map, which was neat.  We're staying in a very interesting backpackers hostel here.  Probably the smallest place I've ever stayed (not particularly comfortable either) but its pretty much the cheapest place on this island, and with scuba costs, cheap is good.  We did a two tank dive this morning, going out for a night dive tonight and heading to the blue hole tomorrow, so its diving-tastic! I probably should write more, but i'm kinda tired, and we're going for a night dive soon.
hopefully i'll get a chance to write more later.
