Our group of 10 excitedly left behind the snow and cold in Toronto to leave for Belize bright and early this morning!
A busy day of travel --- snow in Toronto, heavy fog in Houston, and then sunshine in Belize -- but after a day of travelling we have safely arrived at our hotel in San Ignacio!
We had a scenic drive and looked out the windows in awe of the lush green vegetation along the drive. The two hour drive from the airport gave everyone the opportunity to see some of the houses, animals and towns along the way. Our tour guide and trusty driver Les even took us for a quick scenic stop on route to the hotel - we visited a wooden rope bridge that overlooks the Roaring Creek.
After a long day of travel everyone was glad to arrive at the hotel and enjoy their first taste of Belizean cuisine!
Off to bed for the evening so that we can try to be up in time to see the birds - with the highlight being all the migrating birds that are passing through Belize during this season. The toucans have also arrived earlier than in other years - so we hope to see many Belizean birds as well!
In the morning it's off to Xunantunich the mayan ruin - we will let you know how it goes!
