Because we missed our planned excursion to the mainland earlier in the trip due to the vomitorium situation, we decided to leave the island a couple of days early to spend the weekend on the mainland before flying home Monday. (Of course, those plans also got changed when we moved our flight to Sunday due to the impending tropical storm Isaac set to hit Florida. But more on that later.)
Saturday morning came around and we headed out. On the way to the dock, Finn found this teeny, tiny crab.
We had gotten a drenching of rain earlier in the morning, but by 9:30 when we left, the water was like glass and the skies were beautiful.
We said goodbye to Jamma and climbed aboard our Coastal Express taxi for our last boat ride.
Once at the airport in San Pedro, we took advantage of their super fast wifi and enjoyed the air conditioning while waiting for the plane. The boys found a stingray hidden in the sand in their aquarium.
Finally, we boarded our 11:00 flight to Municipal Airport in Belize City. We got to sit right up front on the little plane.
I took a few pictures out the windows. The stillness of the day made for a spectacular view.
Goodbye, island! We’ll miss you!
