Well it's been well over 3 years since I wrote on this blog! I've taken many trips ever since. I actually forgot my travel journal and started taking notes on my iPhone and then I though well jeez I could open up that blog again....
So here we are it's 2016 and I came to Belize with my college besties!
Yesterday we took a water taxi ($35 round trip each) from Belize City to San Pedro.
Our real full day started today with breakfast at Estels next to the beach, it was wonderful and we got to try the fry jacks! Which are a belizean must try! They were yummy! Basically like a fry bread that taste more like a thick elephant ear with no sugar (we added butter and mermelada and voila!)
Then we rented a golf cart for 35 belizean dollars an hour ($1 US dollar = 2 Belize dollars). We took a short little tour around San Pedro and stopped at a restaurant to have some drinks.
After that our day adventure began- Hol Chan Shark Ray Alley! We took a boat out with 3 Aussie boys Ryan (Ron), Ben and another dude whom I forgot his name but he was nicknamed "easy" by our tour guide. We got to swim in the largest live barrier reef on the Western Hemisphere and it was wonderful! We saw turtles, fishes, sharks and rays! After our trip we came back to our stay and had dinner at the Palapa Bar- I highly recommend! ( definitely lived up to it's Instagram-hype) I got the lobster quesadilla with a homemade tortilla and my table neighbor Kina had shrimp tacos which were even better! We ended the night up on the hammocks and then Kina and I continued the night playing dice with some other people in our hostel (Hostel La Vista) and then took a dip in the ocean. I'm pretty tired now because I literally swam for 2+ hours, so that's our day in short. Goodnight world, tomorrow is another day.
P.S. Maybe tomorrow this blogger-thing will let me upload pictures (it's a struggle from my phone).
