Wednesday in Belize

We all decided to go cave tubing in Belize. We had to take an hour bus ride to the caves which turned out to be great b/c we were able to see so much of the country. The country is poor and completely not commercialized. It was sad to see how these people lived but nice to see that it hasn't all been Americanized. Our tour guide even said that many countries will only take you thru the nice, wealthy parts of the country, but Belize, being so small we had no choice to go thru the 'ghetto' parts of the city.

The Sleeping Giant...see the silhoutte of the 'giant' sleeping.

This is the place we went tubing..... a small, sorta primitive area. We were unable to take cameras with us on the tubes so I wasn't able to get any pictures of the clear water and huge caves.

Another picture of the small 'houses' around Belize City.

This place was right off the port but we had no time to do any shopping around! :(

It was an 'unbelizeable' day in Belize and I would love to go back and see more of this country. But Wednesday night is when it all turned around and the wind starting whipping!
