Belize it or not!
My dear friends Megan and Josh decided to get married in Belize on February 27, 2009. Megan, Josh, Angie, Larry, Nick and I arrived at the Portland airport on Feb 23 at 4 a.m. We began our journey to Belize by flying into Fortworth, Texas and then to Belize City. We then transferred to an island hopper plane that seated 10 people, this small airplane took us to the island of Amberguise Caye, we landed in San Pedro and then caught a water taxi that took us up north to our resort. The weather was about 85-100 degrees with the water about the same. We snorkeled with sharks, stingrays, barracudas, eels, sea turtles, and many more. We canoed out to the great barrier reef and floated in the ocean. We then went to the other side of the island and into swamp land where we found crocodiles, which we fed! We spent another day in San Pedro where we wondered the street. Then the big day finally arrived, Friday morning we began the day by sunbathing and then we got the bride ready. Megan and Josh said their "I do's" on the beach, barefoot and in love. We then had a 3 course dinner on the beach about 3 feet from the ocean, the d.j. began playing some tunes so we danced the night away on the beach. This trip was amazing, the weather was perfect and the people were friendly. My heart did flips when I landed in San Pedro and I did not want to leave. I am thinking I may find my way back there within the next couple of years. Again I hope you guys get the opportunity to travel this magical world we live in. There is something about stepping outside of "our" world and seeing the simplicity and happiness that exists!
