San Pedro, Belize

Also subtitled: The Very Best Day of Elsie’s Life. Sunday afternoon, we headed up to “the farm”…or to the entrance Cayo Frances lagoon – a huge lagoon in the center of Ambergris Caye. And one of a handful of developed properties on that whole side of the island… Sunday was a gorgeous gorgeous day.Keep reading »

I had seen the large 2000 square foot greenhouse at Mahogany Bay Village on Ambergris Caye before… …but just recently I heard that people were getting deliveries of fresh organic lettuce and greens. The company called Ambergreens Organic Aquaponics Greenhouse was up and running. The very first of its kind on the island. I’d visited a hydroponicsKeep reading »

It’s Good Friday and today there is no alcohol sold or served in Belize. In San Pedro, many tour companies are closed – it is considered by many to be bad luck to be on the sea today. But last night, was a different story…a huge surprise party was planned for Scott’s (aka “TheKeep reading »

It’s Holy Thursday. The official beginning of Easter weekend – kids are off from school, San Pedro Town Council and many offices are closing at noon and THE BIGGEST PARTY WEEKEND OF THE YEAR COMMENCES. The water taxis are running in fleets and PACKED, the lower priced hotel rooms that sleep 2 now sleep 15Keep reading »

The weather has been close to flawless since I returned from India. (It’s been 2 weeks now!) Hot and rainless with just a brief delicious “cold front” over the last few days. Over the next day or two we return to hot…it was hot for St. Patrick’s Day… …and more heat for the beach partiesKeep reading »

Sunday evening the weather changed ABRUPTLY. The day was warm, still and humid and at about 8:30pm, an epic dust storm blew through town…winds up to 40mph whipping up everything. It seemed like rain was coming (and it did on the mainland) but we got nothing. Just an island full of vehicles that need aKeep reading »

Yesterday was a HOT still hazy day – the type of day that heralds a weather change – and we headed back to “Secret Beach” – the very popular and totally UNsecret beach on the leeward side of the island. Not the lagoon side that you can see from town or the road north butKeep reading »

This May will mark my 9th anniversary as a full-time resident of Belize. I can say with some certainty that I have seen nothing change the island as quickly as the paving of the road north of the bridge. Suddenly, everyone up north needs a vehicle…resorts need to not only tend to the front ofKeep reading »

I’m ashamed. I take it for granted. The gorgeous Caribbean Sea and barrier reef right outside my door. I haven’t been in the water off of Ambergris Caye in…months. MONTHS! But yesterday, I made up for it…3 water sports. 5 different locations. My day started at Belize Parasail at the Fido’s Dock in downtown SanKeep reading »

Yesterday’s post got a bit heavier than expected so today I’ll just keep it to the GLORIOUS WEATHER. Beautiful sparkly, breezy but not too breezy, low seaweed/sargasso perfection. The view through San Pedro’s largest church – the Roman Catholic Church on Front Street. I was having lunch at Fido’s and as I cut through CentralKeep reading »
