Steve and I made our third trip to Belize June 25 - July 2. We had tons of fun just being outside and enjoying nature.

I loved being able to return our glass bottles for$$$!
We got 12.5 cents (US) for each bottle!
Why don't we do this more in the US??????
Do not try to break into the Belize Zoo!
On my next trip to Belize I hope to be able to stay at the Zoo Lodge!
A wonderful lady at the park. Steve got a late night snack from her!
My favorite food of the trip, pupusa!
The wonderful lady making papusa's at Warguma's.
The nice, smooth north road (pig trail) on the island.
Another one of my favorite lunch places ... Neri Taco.
We can get lunch there for less that $5 (US)!
The prices are listed in Belizian Dollars.
2 Belizian Dollars = 1 US Dollar

Steve and David wading the flats on Steve's birthday. His birthday gift was the fly fishing - spear fishing day trip.
Got another one!
Fill that nice blue SUV all the way up!
While Steve was spear fishing I was snorkeling with the pretty fish.
Sometimes I wish I were a fish!
Grouper?
My fins!
I got bored when the fish left and started playing with the camera.
Then they came back!
Dengue fever??????
Better watch out!
Feeding the tarpon. I tried to get good pics with the underwater camera. That did not work the fish just tried to eat the camera and my hand. I have scratches on the camera as proof!
The carnival rides. They were really sad. I think they were US and Mexico rejects. They must have been from the 60's, looked really rough and unsafe!

You went to the zoo! I love that place. We totally didn't expect to enjoy it as much as we did. I loved those pool-blue waters on the beach. Totally jealous. Next time you'll have to venture into the jungle!
