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 …
Snorkeling
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 …

The weather was bad most of the day, it rained fairly significantly this morning and then pretty steadily …
Hair Fix
I had to buy a solution for my hair today. This morning we went to Frenchies Dive shop where we found out that our snorkel trip for tomorrow has been canceled. Apparently, there is some huge ocean swell coming in tomorrow and all boat trips are canceled. I booked a half day snorkel trip for …
Not as hot
It’s not super hot all the time, seem like in the afternoon it’s not as hot as in the morning. At least when we go to the pool it’s not hot. Up at Cahal Pech the sun was hot, the air was hot and the concrete was hot on your feet. Here it’s not bad. …
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 …
