We are alive! In fact we are more than alive. We have succesfully leapt over the line to thrive. We are currently sitting in a cafe on an island built by Mayans in something like 800 A.D. (Flores, Guatemala). A little update.... Belize was delicious, our time was spent on Ambergris Caye, a rad little island filled with papusas and golf carts. (Jan-you were so right). Most nights were spent doing.... homework, or drinking cuba libres on the end of a dock, or both, mostly both. The good news is we got our diver's certifcation (for all of you not certified, DO IT!!!!) We got to dive in the Carribean surrounded by baracudas, sting rays, turtles, every fish you've never heard of, and sharks... lots of 'em!!! And we were 65 feet under the sea!!
It was definitely sad to see the little island sink into the horizon. But let us tell you the adventures we found on the way to Guatemala....... long wild bus rides, seemingly influenced by roller coasters. We had no idea buses handled so well, on windy dirt roads, at 60 mph, in the middle of the night. Guatemala meets Disneyland. We could try and tell you about Tikal but words are poor paintbrushes for such a place, so you will have to wait for the pictures. Next up- Poptun, Guatemala... Besos y abrazos!!
