Our First Full Belizian Weekend!!

Well Friends - we had an excellent weekend. Saturday we went to the market where we got all sorts of fresh fruits and veggies for like $2.50. Sweet! (Although.. we have yet to eat them - tonight for sure!) Then we just chilled out with the other volunteers and had a low-key day. But on Sunday....


We went to some ruins! Weee! Here's a shot of the most impressive structure on site:

On the side of it you can see some incredible frieze, or as we refer to it, stuffy-stuff. Stuffy-stuff is neat. :-)


This is Lee on the way up to the top. He's all smiles now... but wait.....


This is Nancy chillin' over the edge looking out - incredible view. Where's Lee you might ask?! Well, turns out Lee is a little (by little I mean a fair amount) afraid of heights. He wasn't so keen on checking out the view or having a seat. He also, was not too keen on having Nancy sit that close to the edge.


So Lee decided to go back down. On his way, about a half way down he came underneath us and took a photo. That's Nancy, Nurse Kate, Sarah and Kirsty. All smiles!

Now this picture is a little unclear.. but we were so pumped that we decided to share it anyways! It's a ... MONKEY! Actually it's two adults and two babies! The one baby crawled on the branch and it was super cute and amazing! What do you have in Canada? Seagulls? Haha! We have monkeys!


q: So tell me, why did the iguana cross the road?
a: Who cares!? It was freakin' awesome!

This is actually one of the small to medium ones we saw. We saw about 6 or 7, the biggest being umm.. ginormous.

Anyways, hope you like our pictures and incredibly eloquent posting here... talk to you all soon! And comment on our postings - it's more fun that way!

PS.

Mum (MaryB) - Email me more, I'm feeling abandoned!
Uncle Scott - Yes. We have internet access at work - slow, but functional.
