We fly from London to Tunis today.

We spent a few days visiting my sister and her family before our trip. The twins and my sister have birthdays right at the beginning of the trip, so we celebrated a few days early.

Today is a mostly free day for us. We didn’t book a tour today.

Today we have a snorkeling trip out to the Belize Barrier Reef and the Hol Chan Marine Reserve along it.

We travel to the island of Caye Caulker via a small plane with a stop to circle the Great Blue Hole.

We walked through downtown San Ignacio to a park by the river to look for birds in the morning.

Today our group splits up to go on optional tours. There is a big group going to Tikal in Guatamala. We chose to go to a less visited site called Caracol with another couple.

We travel to the town of San Ignacio in western Belize today.

Today is a visit to Lamanai, one of the oldest Mayan archeological sites in central America. Lamanai means submerged crocodile in the regional Maya dialect.

We went out on the grounds in the morning before breakfast looking for birds.
