We got up this morning and headed out to grab some breakfast. We walked down to Glenda's and shared some scrambled eggs and these thick slices of sausage. We also tried their homemade cinnamon rolls. They were pretty good - no icing like at home, but fresh and warm. Glenda's is on Back St, and was just inside a little house with only a few tables. We then headed back to the hotel to shower and begin packing. It took longer than I thought to organize everything in our packs. While we were packing we heard big booming thunder and looked outside. There were very dark clouds headed out way. We got everything packed up finally and went to check out. It started to rain very lightly as we walked over to the water taxi dock. ... read more

We slept in this morning, it felt good. We got suited up and walked back up to The Split/Lazy Lizard to hang out. We spent a lot of time floating/swimming around in the deeper water on the other side of the little concrete wall. The water felt nice - not even the slightest bit cold, but somehow a little bit refreshing. Swam out into the waterway a little bit - the current wasn't too bad, and it felt good to be out in the ocean. Had a few beers and talked to a lot of people today. There was one older guy there who had the right idea - everyday he'd come with his oldschool beach chair, hat, sunglasses, cigar and an ice chest of beer and just sit in the shallow water hanging out. It's ... read more

This morning we got up and packed up our stuff to head to Caye Caulker. The water taxi ride only took about 35 minutes, so that was nice. The place we are staying is right by the dock, so that was nice. We didn't have to carry our stuff too far, which was a relief for the sunburned back and shoulders. We are staying at the Seaside Cabanas, in a room on the second floor. We have a great view of the beach and ocean. We dumped our stuff off at our room and walked down the beach to see what was around for lunch. We were trying to pick a place and we heard someone call Adam's name. We couldn't figure out who would know us here, but it was a couple we had met ... read more

In the middle of the night we were awakened by very bright lightening and room shaking thunder. It was a nice, loud, tropical storm. We were worried we wouldn't get to go snorkeling because of the rain, but luckily when we woke up around 7a, it was sunny and nice outside. We slathered on the sunscreen and got our swimsuits on and ready to go. We picked up some pastries from The Baker on the way to the dive dock. We got some cool flippers and ate our breakfast while waiting to get on the boat. There was only 2 other people going with us, and we went and got on our tiny little boat. The other 2 people were learning to scuba dive. Our first stop was Hol Can Marine Reserve. We jumped into the ... read more

Today we had a very relaxing day. We slept in until about 8 or 8:30a, so we didn't book a tour or anything. Which was okay since my shoulders and arms were pretty sore. We had some breakfast - scrambled eggs, fruit and toast, and pretty much hung out reading and playing cards. We did spend some time trying to figure out where we wanted to go next. Originally we were thinking of heading to Placencia, but upon talking to Theo and some of the guests, we decided that it would be a lot of time on a bus for only 3 nights there, and then we would also have to spend the time to take the bus back up to the cayes. So we decided to head back to Belize City and take a water ... read more
