Airport pick up

by tacogirl 12/12/2012
written by tacogirl 12/12/2012
san pedro airport

Yesterday was a big day, Cindy’s mum Cherie arrived from England. We were on standby to pick her up as she has a bad back so she could not make the trip north on the ATV and needed a cart ride. Quite often when flights arrive on time or slightly early at Belize international airport, the person will get bumped on an earlier flight to San Pedro, thankfully that was not the case today and we got the call from Cindy to meet up at Maya Island Air at 1:00pm instead of noon.

Paul and I decided to walk to Pedro’s to pick up the cart and luckily when we got to the next road Anthony stopped to give us a ride, he was also on his way to the airport to pick up Hilly for a football [soccer] lunch at Pedro’s. We got talking along the way and realized he was our secret DJ across the canal, thankfully he plays rock and roll music we like.

We got to Maya airport with minutes to spare for meeting the plane.  Cherie came to catch the birth of her grandson, we still do not know what sex the baby is but I am betting on a boy and that he will come very fast. One thing I did not tell you in the simple baby shower post was that around 4am that morning Cindy thought she was going to go into labor and she has been mentally staving it off till her mom arrived.

These could be the last few pictures of a very pregnant Cindy. Her due date is December 24th but now that her mum is here many of us are guessing it could be any time now, especially those that have already done this before.

Baby pics one day soon for all you Cindy fans out there, I am sure most of you are caught up with Tinker pics on fb though.

Just out of curiosity. Is this lady Cindy and partner Andy having and raising baby on Ambergris Caye.?

Reply
tacogirl 16/12/2012 - 12:10 pm

They are Charlotte and in fact they just flew to the mainland to have the baby this week and are now back on the island with a healthy baby girl named Tinker.

You will like her mum Carolyn, she is lots of fun and easy to get along with. As for the baby I am sure it will come any time now that Grandma is here.

Congrats to Cindy and Andy from the Girls from Memphis. Hope she has a healthy and happy baby! On another subject Laurie, I finally got to meet Carbunkle Trumpet at an art festival here in Memphis in November. He mentioned Cindy was expecting but I already knew that from one of your earlier blogs.

She knows the island of San Pedro better than anyone else out there. Trust me, I have looked.

Love Taco Girl Blog @LaurieNorton! I've been reading this blog since I started visiting Ambergris Caye in Belize almost... 10 years ago. It is filled with helpful up-to-date information and recommendations that I wouldn't necessarily find on my own. Laurie Norton's knowledge and extensive network on the island provides her with the ability to share perks/discounts/coupons with her readers, which come in handy year after year. Things on the island change daily - new businesses pop up constantly and LaurieNortonstays on top of these developments. Whenever I plan my return trip to the island, I always check her blog first - and I recommend you do the same. Trip Advisor ain't got nuttin' on Taco Girl!read more

Laurie's blog is my official “go to” source for tourist and local information on San Pedro. Of course, it’s... always nice to see her guides on “what to do” in San Pedro, but I also appreciate her “insider” advice and human interest stories on what it’s like living as a local on the island. There is so much information it's amazing! Thank you Laurie!!!read more

I’m so pleased to see tacogirl's blog on Google. Laurie's blog is my official “go to” source for tourist and... local information on San Pedro. Of course, it’s always nice to see her guides on “what to do” in San Pedro, but I also appreciate her “insider” advice and human interest stories on what it’s like living as a local on the island. I especially enjoy her guest articles, providing a different perspective of all things San Pedro. Her tipping quide is a classic, and don’t forget her Tropic Air flight code and on-island discounts. You’re not up-to-date with what’s going on in San Pedro if you’re not regularly reading tacogirl's blog.read more

Do yourself a favor. Read this BEFORE any trip to San Pedro - Ambergris Caye or Belize in general. Not saying “do... what everyone else says”, but Laurie has frank and honest info which will make your stay in country a little more fun, a little more informative, and often at a great cost savings. Best thing: it’s unbiased, honest, and factual. Personal note: thank you for your personal tailored help in answering mine (and my wife’s) questions.read more

Taco Girl (Laurie) is amazing. She has so much knowledge about Belize and has great connections with many of the... businesses in Belize. Because of her connections she is able to offer many perks and discounts that you wouldn't have been able to find otherwise. She is super responsive and I always go to her for all my travel needs. From golf cart rentals, to spas, to places to eat. She's got the inside scoop on all!read more
