26 Feb . . .into San Pedro

Another hot, humid day, and what better way to start it!



Down to the beach, and wait for the water taxi





. . . and a dashing ride into San Pedro



and our first spot of rain, which is simply an excuse to seek shelter and a beer . . . .





but not a long enough cloudburst to slow the locals down from eating



or cooking



The rest of the gang arrive, and we set out to explore a little of San Pedro, and find lunch!











plus an after lunch ice-cream, of course.



and the water taxi home.

25 Feb

Orientation day . . . and adjustment to ‘pace of life’ from a minus Celsius to very much plus Celsius . . .

Sun and Sand in Belize - 2012

24 Feb ’12

Finally made it.
Phew – what a journey. The connections were not the best to start with . . . Kingston – Toronto – Houston – Belize City, but when we learned the Kingston – Toronto portion was cancelled due to bad weather a scant 6 hours before we were due to depart, it was a real scramble to find us a limo to get us to Toronto in time for the departure there.
Still, made it, and although a very, very long day, glad to be here. Our ferry has a much more solubrious departure lounge than the Wolfe Island Ferry.



Now, time to chill out, and relax!

22 September 2011

One final treat before we pack and head for home, organized by Jenn, and enjoyed by all of us. A visit to the Moorcroft factory, in Stoke on Trent. Not allowed to take photos inside, but we spent over three hours on a guided tour of the production of Moorcroft pottery, still hand made in the same manner as it was produced over 120 years ago.
