I’ve been trying to update you all with some photos of our Belizian adventures so far but unfortunately they fail every time when uploading from Firefox 
I’m currently in Caye Caulker in a net cafe charging me more than one pound for every 20 mins! Shocking if you ask me, twas five times as cheap in Orange Walk.
Rough plan for the next week: snorkeling tomorrow, then off to San Pedro for a night with Stu and Tim, Stu and Tim leave for Cancun, I come back to Caye Caulker and depart on a 3 day 2 night excursion camping, sailing and fishing to Palencia.
I’ll get back to you in Honduras.

We arrived in Orange Walk after nightfall which is never advisable since its always harder to orientate yourself in such environments. Nevertheless we managed to book ourselves into a nice room for the three of us at the Akihito Hotel. Despite our long trip over from Mexico we had in fact gained an hour from crossing the border into Belize which meant our restricted lock out time of 11pm wasn’t to much of a downer. Read More »

Oh air con. How I have MISSED YOU. But strangely at the same time abhore you. On Sunday night we paid the extra 30 pesos to upgrade to air conditioned top class dorms. I thought I’d let it slip this time, before Stu and Tim started accusing me of sweat box sadism, but I’m glad I did! The only slight difference is that your freezing cold shower in the morning isn’t quite as pleasant. In fact, its quite unpleasant. Read More »

It was an early start yesterday for what would prove to be a very long day. Up at 6:30 to shower and finish packing, a quick walk to the ferry dock, a taxi to the bus terminal and then onward to the ancient Mayan ruins of CHICHEN ITZA! I hope I managed to build that up enough for you. Read More »

A 24 hour day later and a small boat journey the next day, and Tim, Stu and I have arrived in our first location - The Island of Women. The trip getting here was fun and games as you’d imagine. My flight from Newark was delayed, which meant I arrived an hour late into Cancun. This unfortunately threw Tim and Stu completely, who amid speculations of panic and disaster even contemplated ringing home t make sure I’d left. It probably didn’t help that they were drinking while they waited, but this did contribute to the rather warm and relieved welcome I received from a semi-naked Stu when I did actually arrive.
