What do three Americans do when their Guatemalan visas expire after 6 months? Hop on the next camioneta to Belize, of course! We knew we were going to have a good time, but Sam, Mark, and I surely underestimated just how great our trip was going to be.
Our first stop was Tobacco Caye. It's a petite island that can be covered by foot in all of five minutes. We stayed in our own personal cabana right off the water for super cheap. We ate delicious meal after delicious meal (many featuring the catch of the day.. literally!). We also found a dock all for ourselves where we read, hung out, and spotted nearby manta rays for the next three days. Ahh, que relajado.
After that, we stopped off at Placencia to ring in the new year! It's a port town with a stunning beach and a quaint main street. We ate at a burger joint, enjoyed a Belikin beer, and swam the ocean waves. But what was really on our agenda for that night? Dance the night and the year away. And that's exactly what we did :)
