More fun in the sun

We decided to take the bikes out for a ride along the beach


It wasn't long before we had to stop to hydrate :)

Back at the resort Salmo offered to cut down coconuts to make Rum drinks

Edwin putting the final touches on our drinks

Yum yum :)

A little critter comes to join our pool party

He didn't stay long

That night we ventured back into town for Bob Marley's birthday party.  The band was on a break so we took over (actually the mics were turned off, thankfully).  We were only lip-syncing to the DJ's music

The last sunrise from Placencia

We picked up fresh cinnamon buns for the 3.5 hour trip back to Belize City

And stopped to pick up fresh oranges



A first for all of us.. our tour guide recommended we stop at the Belize prison gift shop to buy crafts made by the inmates... actually quite interesting.. until I called "shotgun" when we all hopped back into the van.. not a thing to do in a jail parking lot :)


The woodworking that was for sale.. too bad we didn't have more room in the van



Tony bought a carving of a Tapir, Belize's national animal



Belize City.. on our way to the Water Taxi



From the van to the Water Taxi.. we are not sad to be done with travelling in our "cozy" van


We bought our tickets! Yeah :)

Grabbing a bite and a beer before heading out onto the Water Taxi towards San Pedro


It was actually a very comfortable 1.5 hour ride on the calm Caribbean Sea


Oops, I didn't read the sign ;(

The first stop, Caye Caulker.  A smaller island than Ambergris Caye (where San Pedro is located)

The guys are getting anxious to dock

San Pedro on Ambergris Caye... notice the AMAZING blue water!!

Baggage claim was somewhat chaotic once we docked.. all good though, nothing was missing!

A sign near the dock... You better Belize it!

Our home for the next week... maybe we will never go home!







A very, very nice beach... and we can snorkel right off the pier!

Let's go!

As warm as a bathtub :)


The four amigos.. Tony, Brian, Ron and Mike

Monique & Denise enjoying the patio


A new sunrise to watch every morning... life doesn't get much better than this!
