Belize Day 8
This morning we woke up and went
for breakfast at 7. We had breakfast with the host families. After breakfast,
we packed up and got ready to leave for Belize City. We left San Miguel at 8. It took several hours with a few stops before
we came to Belize City. We dropped off the van and went to catch a water taxi and
arrived there at 1. We got on the water taxi at 1:30. The water taxi is
basically a boat for 60+ passengers. It makes stops at islands kind of like a
normal taxi would. It took us about an
hour to get to Caye Caulker. The weather was nice when we arrived but after we
got settled in it begin to rain. Caye Caulker Island is a small peaceful place.
There are shops where you can rent golf carts and bicycles. For lunch we
stopped at the Happy Lobster. After some delicious food, we relaxed and enjoyed
the benefits of Caye Calker. It felt good to have comforts such as a nice bed
and a shower. We had dinner at the Rainbow Café around 8. As we walked down the
street to go to dinner an effort had to be made to avoid the large puddles of
water that were scattered all over the road.
Despite what you think about a tropical island the weather wasn’t to
kind towards us. Other than that the day
was pretty nice. Everyone just hung out
and relaxed until they went to bed.
