A Week In Paradise - Cayo y Caye Caulker

Last week, I took a bus from Flores to the Guatemalan border with a couple of people I met at the hostel. We spent the night in San Ignacio since mom and co were delayed 24 hours. I met up with them the next afternoon, they came to pick me up in San Ignacio and we then drove to the Hidden Valley Inn on a rather bumpy road. It was a fantastic hotel - I felt very spoiled after my week in the nice places I have been staying. We went to see Caracol the next day - some mayan ruins "near" by, It was a rather long trip on a very bumpy road and we got a puncture. So the soldiers escorting us to the sight helped change the tire. On our last day in Cayo, we went on a really nice walk through the forest and saw several waterfalls.

Then we drove to Belize City and returned the car. From there we took a water taxi to Caye Caulker where I still am. While mom and co were here the weather wasn't all that great, but we still went on a two tank dive then a snorkeling trip the next day. The diving was very good and I got to see my turtle as well as loads of other wildlife!!!

I am staying in a hostel on the north end of the island. It isn't all that night but there are a bunch of people around so it's okay. It's warmed up alot and the sun is out. Very Very Very hot!!! I haven't really been up to all that much. Today is my laundry / interneting day before hopefully heading into Tulum, Mexico tomorrow with an Israeli girl that is staying at the hostel.
