First full day in Belize! Today we went to breakfast about 7am. The restaurant was a short walk away. In San Pedro, everything is a short walk or golf cart ride away. The only cars are taxis. Everyone else uses golf carts. Another boat taxi picked us up at the hotel, took us to another pier where we loaded up on snorkeling gear and loaded up on a nice sized catamaran. We ended up spending the day on the cat. It was interesting.
First, fully-guided snorkeling tour. I have to admit, I scored on the guide. James was the best! He pointed out everything and even brought some things up from the bottom for us to hold.
Next, a quick stop at the shark and ray reef. First, they chummed the water for the sharks. Then, they chummed the water for humans! How do you chum for humans? You catch a shark of course!
Next, a boat ride down the coast, a quick walk through the water to the beach and lunch...on the beach! It was yummy. Back on the boat and home.
Then, we played in the hotel pool for a bit, ate some pizza, played more games, had devotional and went to bed. Another big day. We soon discovered that EVERY day was going to be a big day.
Some people should NOT be allowed to apply their own sunscreen. Seriously.
Isn't she beautiful?
Our hotel was a series of cabins. Aren't they cute?
The beach at the hotel.
Getting ready to snorkel. Yup, we are so ready.
Eric and Dre practicing. Can we get in the water yet?
Finally! Enjoying the sea life in front of us.
That wore us out. Time for a short (hour) nap in the sunshine. I hope everyone reapplied the sunscreen!
