Belize - Third time's a charm (- not that the first or second times weren't!)

January saw us getting out of DC's winter for a week and heading back to Belize, the third time we have been able to visit this lovely country. See previous more comprehensive post here. We were able to find really good mileage awards on Delta and bonus...got upgraded on all our flights! Frequent travel status paying off! We stayed at Treetops Guest House on Caye Caulker which is where we stayed our very first time in Belize fourteen years ago. When we were last on Caye Caulker, we were a little put off by some aggressive touts but this time, in spite of even more development, we found this lovely island back to it's charming self. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. It was so good to be warm, watch the water and sky through the coconut trees, do a lot of swimming and snorkeling and be far far away from Washington.

How every morning should start...

...followed by a walk along the water...

...to Glenda's where they still serve great Cinnamon rolls...

Continuing your walk after breakfast, you might pass this mural...

...or see these friends...

...and this colorful boat

If you arrive at the split, you'll notice some changes, it's all be fixed up!


Back to Treetops and some hammock time on the roof...this is your view




As evening draws near...
...sunset...

...and another good meal at Little Kitchen...makes for happy smiles at the end of a relaxing day...
Wash and repeat the next day...
Maybe add some kayaking...

...with these friends...

...while looking for...

...large Tarpon underneath you...
...or tiny sea horses!





Final morning view...
...until next time!
