Live From Belize It's...

30 degrees, endless beaches of white sand and crystal clear water, and a soft, background reggae beat--this is life in the Caribbean.

Vanessa and I are now in a town called San Pedro on a Ambergris Caye. The Northern tip of the Caye borders Mexico, and there is a noticeable Mexico influence in San Pedro. We had chicken fajitas last night by the beach. I guess, in a way, everything is by the beach here.

We are finding things to be a little expensive here in San Pedro. At least compared to Caye Caulker, the tiny 0.7 mile wide 2 mile long Caye we previously inhabited for four days. We have decided to stop dining out and instead purchase provisions from the "local" supermarket which we can enjoy either in the comfort of our resort or on the beach, picnic style.

Today I will run and Vanessa will bike along the beach into town. The sea breeze and the comfortable running pace should help to prevent heat exhaustion. Let's hope...

We move inland on Friday to San Ignacio, where we will explore the Mayan ruins and foray into a popular tourist activity: cave tubing.

Updates to follow.

Cheers,

Julian
