Yesterday was day 1 of our trip to Belize and was a full day of travel: Palm Springs to Dallas, Dallas to Belize City, Belize City to Ambergris Caye, then a van around town and finally on a boat to our home for the next two weeks. The boys were really good travelers (apart from a little craziness in the Belize airport).
On the first plane:
The third plane was a small one — I’d never been on a plane this small. It was a little rough at first but overall a very smooth flight with beautiful views.
Once we landed in San Pedro, the kids were excited to see this enormous aquarium (with a little shark in it).
We were driven around town for a while gathering supplies (and trying, fruitlessly, to buy dinner for that evening) and then went to the boat that would take us to our house. Across from the dock was this super cool fence that was painted to look like colored pencils.
Then Armando and his crew took us “home.” The boat ride was very calm at first but then he went much faster when we got into open water. Finn was not too excited about it and kept telling me, “He should slow down this boat!” He even attempted to tell Armando, but it was too loud.
And, finally, we arrived and the whole day just became worth it:

Sorry to use swear words, but holy shit! This looks awesome!

I agree with Jerri! I wanna come too!

I just want to say Christy, Amy and the boys are such troopers. I am going to make Pioneer Women out of them yet. Also glad that the very unflattering pictures of me have not been uploaded to the internet.
