You Know you Have Been Living in Belize a While When…

Belize Fun Facts – You know you have been living in Belize a while when you catch your self using the word like pirate as a search term while trying to find something in a gmail search.

Today I wanted to post just one picture so I set off in search of an image that visually represents why I love living on Ambergris Caye. I went to my stock folder and found the pics from when Dick and I went driving down south and ended up with 36 scenic shots instead 🙂 and they are only one third of our exploring that day. We also photographed a really cool looking catamaran at the far end of the barge dock, and a drive through  Captain Sharks boat yard. Of course it was the road less traveled that won the which pictures to post first contest – hands down.

The scenic area in the pictures below is a 10 minute or so drive south of our house. I love the lay of the land,  interesting colors and textures. Looking at these these pictures takes me right back to  our day’s adventure and the feeling of simplicity we experienced while enjoying a quiet tropical country drive on a warm sunny day. They  also remind me of visiting Paul’s parents farm minus the cute white farmhouse and the machinery graveyard , that I loved so much. I showed them to him yesterday and we plan to go spend some time there next time we have use of a cart – maybe I will make a picnic this time.
