We have been applying the things we have learned from our travels and hopefully we will make good choices. If anyone would like to tag along or meet up somewhere exotic …

Returning to the United States
It rained during the night fairly significantly and the morning started out looking fantastic. It was a shame that we were leaving as it would have been a good day to get out on the water. Riding in the water taxi the seas were mostly smooth. I had sat all the way to the front …
Rainy Last Day
I was hoping to have an exciting post for our last day, but no luck. It has rained all day long. It’s good that we didn’t come a week later because it’s supposed to rain all this week too and probably for the next few months. I’ve been in Costa Rica at the beginning of …
And she sings
We’ve come to the end of our time here in Caye Caulker, Belize. Final assessment, four days in the mainland was spot on. Had a good time and got to see a bit of Belize. Ten days on Caye Caulker, that’s hard to say. In general it’s probably too many days. There’s not a lot …
The Blue Hole Snorkeling Trip
We did a three stop tour with Frenchies Diving today. They start early die to the long trip out. They have you meet at 5:30, they do offer a breakfast. They could have also said come at six if you don’t want breakfast and things would have been fine. The spread was nothing to write …
Mixed Results for Night Snorkeling
I got to go night snorkeling last night and it was one of the best snorkel trips I’ve done! We saw so many animals. There were 2 octopuses – one was bright blue and turned a molted shade of bluish-brown while we were watching. The other was just a baby and it only had it’s …
Scuba diving in Belize.
I finally got to do a scuba dive. Sadly it ended up being just one. It was a good dive though and I am okay with things. Technically I did dive a second time and made it to the bottom but had to return to the surface due to a malfunctioning regulator. My spare had …
Seahorses
Bill finally got to go diving this morning. The weather looked pretty bad when we got up so we were concerned that he wouldn’t get to go again today. He was really hoping to dive at least once so it’s great that he got to go. He’s almost out of days. I had the morning …
Slow day
Hello all! Not much going on today. We rode bikes this morning to go get a few bucks from the ATM and check on my scuba diving for tomorrow. The dive shop was closed. We got some treats from the Belize Chocolate shop, brownies are excellent, the raspberry tort is good but not worth the …
More from the taxi and snorkeling
Our guide/ taxi driver Reynaldo from the Barefoot resort told us that the Chinese are buying up a lot of the properties here, they possibly get financing though Chinese banks/ government that then take the business if they miss some payments. The first thing they do after acquiring property is to put up a concrete …
