Day 20 (Trip 2, Day 11) - Caye Caulker

Monday, March 24, 2014
San Pedro, Belize Cayes, Belize
Off to Caye Caulker today. We have to travel on a chicken bus again, but at least it is just one bus, not mutliple ones like the last time.

Stephen ended up singing his hit song "Chicken Bus", something like "CHICKEN BUS .... I'm going on a CHIKEN BUS", he sung it a few times and suprisinly no one told him to shut up, then again, he can look quite scary, bt really, he's a bit softy.

We arrived in Belize before catching a boat to Caye Caulker, the boat started to feel a littel like a chicken Bus as they kept on packing people in. Half way though the trip Poppy sreamed out to everyone on the boad "Ohhhh look, a Dolphin", I'm sure she almost gave some of the people a heart attack when she did that. however after the big fuss she made, she forgot to actually get a photo of the dolphin. 

Once we all arrived, most of us grabbed any washing we had and dropped it off to get washed, the majority of us are down to our last set of clothes, then headed down to get something to eat. 

It's nice to see people on this island just relaxing and making sure everyone is having a great time, all the locals are smiling, and always tell you to slow down and relax, there is nothing on this island that you need to rush for .  They generally seem to love this plae and are all very friendly.

We then took off to 'The Split", which is part of the island which is has been cut in half and dredged up, one side is essentially is all the economy, and the other part is mainly wildlife and the ocasionall person lives there as well, it was a lovely swim and watching the sunset go down was fantastic as well.

Dinner tonight was at a place called Wish Willies, the guy who runs the place cooks up fantastic BBQ meal of fish, pork, chicken, shimp kababs, and then unlimited Rum Punch. Some of the guys continued the evening down at a couple of bars drinking, while the rest of us deccided to go back to the hotel and try and get some rest as tomorrow is going to be a big day of snorkling.
