Four words will sum up this post: CAN YOU BELIZE IT? Seriously though, there were all sorts of tourist paraphenlia around saying things like that... It was the best trip EVER!!! There are quite a few pics with great captions, so look and read on to enjoy :) P.S.- if you need tour guides to take you to Belize Tanner is available ANY time and I'm also free to come along to show you how to sun tan. We come free of charge, all we require is one day's notice and we are on the next plane to and unBELIZEable vacation!!! But seriously, go to Belize IMMEDIATELY!
The Urbinas- great family that Tanner taught on his mish. Gladys wants pictures of our wedding because she's getting married in Corazal in November :) CONGRATS!!
Sad to go home! P.S. Shalita (the cutest girl in Belize) did the braids for me and Rackell. What a nice way to keep the hair outta my face, but what a relief to take them out :)
Eating at Caliente's on our last night! Deliciousness, where the Chicken Drop is held. They take a chicken out of a basket, twirl it around a bunch and then drop it on a huge board with numbers on it. Whatever number it craps on first wins! Too bad we showed up too late to place our bets..
Tanner loved these kayaks- and snorkeling by our condo! I took one out the last day searching for conch shells and caught an OCTOPUS! A mini one, but a real one!!! It was kinda creepy
Snorkelying at Hol Chan and Shark Ray Alley. This was a cute little turtle munching on some sea grass. We saw the coolest fish, definitely the best snorkeling ever. Oh yeah, we held a shark too, no biggie. Football style (sorry no pic cuz it was under water :(
On our cute private dock under the cabana
On our boat ride to the ruins in Belize City. A spider monkey literally walked right on to our boat. I fed him a cranberry granola bar and he partook. It was a little freaky (note the awesome look on my face and Tanner laughing at me) seeing a monkey walking around on two legs. Not normal
At the top of the Lamani Temple. We seriously risked our lives to climb to the top. You had to hold on to a rope to climb the sketchy stairs. Not for the faint of heights
The whole Williams gang! They are another fam Tanner taught. We did quite a bit with them- this was FHE at our place with them. They requested root beer floats for dessert. Don't worry- cost of ice cream in Belize: 56 Belizean dollars, 24 US dollars. It was well worth it!
Just the view from our awesome condo!
Me and Rackell athe Williams house for Sunday dinner. They fed us the most amazing Belizean dinner/lunch of rice and beans, chicken, and veggie (potato) salad. These awesome 1 liter drinks were ours for the taking. We drank them super fast to avoid dehydration in the Belizean non-air conditioned heat with 100% humidity.
The Williams house after lunch on Sunday- greatest family!
Me and Rackell with Shalita Williams- the hair braider. Pre-braids. This was after an awesome church meeting!
This was off the balcony of the churh house. They just have church on the third floor of a building down town. Don't worry, no AC here either. Thank goodness for fans, lots of fans.
There will be more pic to come for my own blogging pleasure, if you would like to see more of the most beautiful place on Earth come back for more :)
