I "Belize" We're in Belize

28 July 11


Belize City, Belize

Do you "Belize" in magic???  Stop it's the "Belize"!!!   That's just a couple of the phrases we came up with today while we were in Belize.
Woke up to overcast skies after hearing storms during the night. Unlike yesterday in Roatan, we were bombarded by people trying to sell us anything from bracelets and necklaces to trying to sell us tours.

However, we found a private taxi with a van for 7 people to take us to the Belize Zoo where the animals are in their natural habitat. Maeve was in heaven when the first thing she did was hold a boa constrictor. We saw all of the birds and animals indigenous to Belize from warthogs to toucans and parrots. There were alligators as well as crocodiles.

The trip to the zoo was about an hour to get there and an hour to get back. By then, the heat was on us again, and with two kids wanting lunch, we headed back to the ship. Now it’s naptime and relaxing the afternoon away for all of us.

More tomorrow from Cozumel.
