Go Slow 4/11/19

Today, we will go slow...alllll dayyyyyy!  No tours, no plans and as I am typing, Gwen is still sleeping peacefully as the tropical bird that wakes us every morning does his best to insist she get up!

I am not sure just what we will do...but I think there will be some sun and water in the day!! It will be at the 'island pace', though...which is a universally agreed, "Go Slow"...

Here is our sunset cabana!!  



On our walk to get coffee stopped to pet Tracy's puppies and buy a few of her necklaces :)


This is Margarita Mikes, our destination tonight :)


 Spent the rest of our day at the split… Soaking up the sun ❤️















Nice, relaxing day!!!

We got sun, napped a lot and that was about it!!!!

Tomorrow we are out with Kevin snorkeling!! Excited to see what's under the water now:)

(Well, let me just say that the whole blog was lost last night...woke up to a three picture post..ugh..internet...and now, it's almost six am and we need to be at the water taxi by seven to go on today's adventures...soooo..here's the day in a tropical nutshell! ) Pictures say it best anyway.. :) Got up and rented bikes from Kevin across from our place...all day transportation...done! This is what we see right at the end of our little 'street'. Biked to coffee shop..met No Shirt (Lalo) and our day took on a whole new twist... No Shirt took us to go see these crazy tarpin fish... Down dirt roads past cool boats.. Check out these guys...you get sardines hold them in between your fingers, just over the water and BAM when you least expect it the make a dramatic lunge for the sardines...AND YOUR HAND! The first time is kinda scary, but after that, just a blast! Gwen is so funny!!!!  And these fish are HUGE!! The pelicans knew we...

This is the hardest post to write...no doubt...because as much as we so miss our family and pets...we will really miss being here in Belize...nine days is just noooooot quite enough...if we could only figure out a way to get everyone to move down here...hmmmmmm.....whaddaya think!????? (Do you know how hard it is to take a sad picture when you are sitting in Belize????) 9 days, though, without a thought of all the bills, chores and responsibilities, can you imagine????....such a much needed stress and brain vaca!!! We are so grateful to have had the pleasure of staying at the Sunset Cabana wih Erika...her cabana is bright, comfortable and genuine....and Erika is friendly and oh so helpful with any questions or help we needed...even getting a taxi arranged to take us to the boat!

Hon. Rodwell Ferguson, Sr. and the Current Election

Our driver, Brenton, was the son of a high level popular politician, Honorable Rodwell Ferguson, Sr.   He is with the Peoples United Party, PUP and a Regional Deputy Party Leader for the South and has been very active education villagers about the ICJ (International Court of Justice or World Court) vote happening now and what a YES vote means and what a NO vote means. The government is very PRO and you see signs and billboards everywhere.   There is a territorial dispute between Belize and Guatemala. Guatemala claims they own the territory due to a treaty from 1821.  The British did not agree with that because they said it covered land they already ruled. It has been up in the air ever since 1630! (The country was called British Honduras from 1862 - 1973. ) Belize gained its independence in 1981. Right now there is a vote to go to the International Court to decide.  The Belizeans we spoke to do not want to do that as the country could be take...
