AHHHHHHHHH San Pedro, Belize.....
El Palacio de la Papa Frita
Problem was...I was meeting Joanne at the airport to go to Belize and now since we were one day delayed out of BA, I was to arrive only 2 hours before our flight to Miami. Crazy, but this is a great example of mi Neto......I called to tell him what happened and he said he would just pack my bag for the beach and and bring it to the airport. I ended up spliting up with Andrea to get home. I flew through Brazil instead of waiting to be denied again out of BA. (she didnt have a Brazilian visa so she couldnt) Ernesto was waiting for me outside the airport at 7am. I gave him all the wine I had bought, and he gave me a new bag packed for the beach. It worked out perfectly!!! What a man!!!
We were sweating when we finally got on the AA flight in Miami. We had some problems with our tickets at the counter and then security...we only made it on 2 seconds before they closed the door....very lucky. Joanne and I are ususally lucky on our trips together!
We flew into Belize City and then bought a little flight to San Pedro on this puddle jumper.
We stayed at a place called Ruby's right on the beach. We booked it online, it was $60 bucks per night!
Below was the main drag of the little town, where we got our coffee and breads in the morning and checked our email. It is just a little sand road and almost all the traffic is golf carts. At night the lights strug over the road look like a summer wonderland!
You may not know this, but Belize is known for great scuba and snorkeling. The boats were parked at the dock right in front of Ruby's. On two mornings we did 1/2 day snorkel trips. We went to different areas of the reef and saw EVERYTHING!!!
Big colorful fish, sharks, octopus, manta rays, eel, turtles, lobster...it was awesome! Our guide swam with us and pointed so we would not miss anything!
YIKES! Sharky-sharks!!
Ahhhhh Breakfast on the beach...does it get any better?
