My goal for this trip was to spend the least amount of time on wheels and more time enjoying the cities we were staying in. Usually trips tend to be: BANG BANG BANG. Always on the go. If this meant not getting to see everything, oh well.

With that said, we only had 4 real days of traveling. Our modes of transportation included:

Mexican ADO buses: brand new, Mercedes tour buses with recliner seats and A/C. But the driver kept the A/C on full blast the entire time. It was a freezer inside. And they continued to play movies on the TVs at high volume like High School Musical 3 and Toy Story 2 in Spanish
Belizean buses: literally school buses. And Belize does not believe in stop lights or signs…they use speed bumps. An obscene amount of huge speed bumps that are painful to go over when sitting in the back of an old school bus
Water taxi: easy transport from the mainland to the cayes

It has been over a year since I have left the country. Yes, over a year. I have set a new record for myself and it is not one to be proud of (yes, Canada does count as international travel)

With that said, in 2 weeks everything will change. Ben and I are off to Belize for 15 nights starting Xmas. With matching North Face Terra backpacks, waterproof sandals, bathing suits and my camera we are ready to go.

The goal? Relax, enjoy and test how long it takes until we want to kill one another.

Bon voyage!
