Oh American cruise ship tourists...

Belize City, Belize.

Went here for 2 days. I wasn't aloud to walk around at night alone, which I didn't want to anyway, but luckily I was with 7 local tour guides that took us around and we were perfectly safe.

We got to go on a snorkeling tour for free out of Belize City. This boat goes out to the cruise ships and picks up tourists to take them snorkeling for a few hours. This is me with some of the crew from the boat.

The cruise ship tourists we picked up (there were 66 of them) were all 60+ years old and after a little rum punch it got pretty crazy! They were doing the macarena and the YMCA. I drank as much rum punch as I possibly could.

Me in my snorkel gear, so sexy! The fish were beautiful and the rum punch was delicious so all of the drunk old retired americans from Florida were well worth going on the tour.

The heat is gone...for now

Rocky Point, Corozal Bay, Belize.

This is when we went to Bacalar Chico, a barrier reef in Corozal Bay on the borders of Mexico and Belize. We went snorkeling in the clear blue sea and saw some of the most amazing tropical fish.

It cooled down last night and I got to sleep without sweating all night long. It was lovely. I am definitely getting used to the heat though, it is pretty sad when you get goose bumps at 78 degrees.

The website I am working on for Sarteneja Adventure Tours is almost finished and should be up within a week. I will post the link once it is finished. (I forgot to mention I am working with the locals of Sarteneja and helping them out creating a website for them)

After the web site is finished then I am off to Caracol (Mayan ruins) for the rest of my trip. After I stop at Caye Caulker and San Ignacio for a few days of fun.

Tomorrow I am going to Belize City with some of the tour guides from Sarteneja. They are taking us on one of their cruise ship tours. Should be interesting seeing all of the tourists since I haven't had a chance to be around them yet. I can only imagine how much fun it will be hanging out with a bunch of tourists (around 70-100 people) from the cruise ship getting drunk off of rum punch (sarcasm). Thank god we get to go on all of the tours for free. They said they will give us extra rum in our punch to help us get through it :)
