We finally had a bright, sunny day and reasonably good weather for snorkeling! It took a while for everyone to get snorkel gear and fins at Caveman Snorkel Tours so we left in boats a little before 11am. On the way out out, they gave us some fish and let us hand feed some frigate …

Sharks, Rays and Golf Cart Taxi Tours
We woke up this morning to more rain, and initially our day didn’t look very promising. At about 9am, a hotel employee came to tell us that all of our snorkeling trips had been canceled at least through tomorrow. Bill had been suggesting for a few days that we take a Golf Cart Taxi tour …
Caye Caulker:The Grand Tour
I should have brought the selfie stick! Today our luck with Mother Nature has not improved. While I was prepping my gear for our trip the gal from the desk came a knocking at our door. She was apologetic about the weather and that they would have to cancel our snorkeling for today. She also …
Inevitable
When traveling there are things that are outside your control and no amount of planning will keep you from the inevitable day where you are limited in what you can do. Today has been one such day. The weather was bad most of the day, it rained fairly significantly this morning and then pretty steadily …
Hair Fix

Weird Hair
So, the weather does weird things to my hair. I’ve never had it go fuzzy exactly like this. I look like Pigpen from the Peanuts cartoons. It’s really dusty here so, I’m even dirty like Pigpen. Every time I go outside, this is what happens, so it’s not like I had a hair malfunction just …
Tid bits
While we were on the mainland there were a lot of taxis that were luxury vehicles (Mercedes, Lexus, Acura) that had dealership stickers from along the east coast of the United States. Most were in need of new shocks, they weren’t very cushioned on the bumps and they had a lot of excess travel on …
Pictures
Good morning folks! I’ve gone through my videos from yesterday and have some shots I grabbed for your enjoyment. The quality is probably iffy since it’s from the old camera. I’m leaving the filtered lens on the new GoPro for now. I may switch since we plan on doing more snorkeling than I will be …
Off to the Cayes, AKA travel day II
Nice relaxing morning Today I did see a sign to not put Toilet Paper in the toilet here. I was going to mention that I hadn’t in my post today. I like to give our readers a bit of a heads up on what to expect when traveling somewhere new. That issues is something that …
