UnBelizeble!

Caye Caulker, Belize. February 19, 2010

Dear all!

Our journeys had been very intense, away from the buzz of the “modern” world. We had a lot of fun with the hike in Cerro Cahui and it was a preparation to the “Death Defying Hike” in Barton´s Creek, Belize.

The border crossing into Belize was easy and we arrived to the Hotel in San Ignacio to relax for a day and a half before heading to Barton´s Creek.

The canoeing in the cave was a lot of fun and interesting, we entered the cave for a thousand meters until the canoe couldn´t go any further. We listened to Melvin -the local guide- explaining the formations and the Mayan beliefs related to the world of the death and the underground rivers.

The next day some of us finally took the “Death Defying Hike” and the rest went to the Rio On pools tour. After almost three hours of walking through a thick jungle we arrived to the 700 ft water fall. Believe me it was worth the effort! We had lunch and returned to the camping site for dinner and a bonfire, it was very enjoyable.


On Thursday we travelled to Caye Caulker in the Caribbean ocean, although the weather has not been vey Caribbean yet. We enjoyed the laid back atmosphere of the island and we are planning to go snorkeling tomorrow no matter what kind of weather we have!

We are all longing to go back to Mexico, we miss the food, the people and the prices!

The next story follows soon!
