I had the best intentions to get to Corozal this week but it did not work out. Instead  I found myself back on a Tropic Air Cessna Caravan headed to Municipal Airport so I could do some shopping in Belize City yesterday. I decided to walk around a bit more near Save U so I could see what other places I might want to add to my route fpr future. First stop was a pinata and housewares store - I scored a couple ...

There is always lots to do before company comes. Cleaning - laundry - groceries blowing up the new toys for the pool. Heather arrives today on the 12:40 Tropic Air and hurricane Jo gets in tomorrow same time. They have both been so excited all week - lots of chatting on the coconut phone. Heavy rain woke me up this morning at 5:40 am. It was much shorter than yesterdays showers at the pool but long enough t ...

I think David Ogilvy was  bang on with this thought - Develop your eccentricities while you are young. That way, when you get old, people won't think you're going gaga. I am feeling very TGIF today - decided that my best course of action was to get up early - get as much as I could done then take off for a short adventure trip to the mainland. Flight to Municipal / Belize city was just what I needed - a nic ...

Yesterday we were reminded how important it is to use surge protectors here on Ambergris Caye. We returned home from our Florida Vacation to find out our router was not working.  The other freaky power related thing that happened - we had our bedroom tv unplugged while away and when we plugged it back in it and went to turn it on it blacked out fast and then would do nothing. Thankfully after letting it sit ...

After recieving the information below - I spoke to Sarah Dalsin CFO at Tropic Air to lean more about what was up and coming at Municipal airport [TZA]. Sara told me that municipal airport is in process of getting a new facelift and a good grounds cleaning. Also in the plans - the runway will be safely and securely widened and lengthened which is no small feat considering it is on the Caribbean Sea. Tropic A ...

Paul borrowed Dick and Carole's cart yesterday to pick up Cindy at Maya Island Air - she was thinking she would be on the 11:40 or 12:40 pm flight.
