We're In Belize Bitch

I'm now ready to elaborate on my recent adventure to Central America. After a week of detoxing from a shit load of beer, some extra curricular activities, all you can eat fresh fish, and a bit of family drama upon my return from island paradise, the dust has finally began to settle. Such is life.



I'm not exaggerating about the "shit load of beer" statement. We brought approximately 800 beers to the island split amongst 7 guys. That works out to be something like 114 beers per person, 19 beers per day give or take. Not to mention the occasional Bourbon, and Patron filled evenings. At the end of this trip I asked myself, was this more of an alcohol consuming expedition more so than diving and fishing? Depending on which guy you ask, probably yes.




My adventure led me and six other guys to Nick's house on Long Caye (key), a remote island 54 miles off the coast of Belize City. The island rests on the most easterly of Belize's three atolls where the diving rivals that of any in the world. My six travel compodres, Nick, Noel, Chucky Nookie, Lewis, Patrick, and Jeff are some of the coolest and funniest people around and if asked to travel with them again I'd do it in a heart beat.

The first day was spent in Belize city where we had to wait for one person to get in. I wont mention any names here "JEFF" but it turns out this person got hosed on his flights and the airlines managed to loose his luggage. We stayed at the fabulous Princess Hotel and Casino for one evening, truthfully its really all you can bare when being charged $1.00 to use the restrooms.



They do however pride themselves on their re fried beans, truly nothing like it. I opted to starve for this portion of the trip.



I'm actually glad we got to spend the day in the city, it gave me the opportunity to really see what Belize had to offer which was absolutely nothing.




Oh is he now?


So as we waited for that final person in our party to arrive, it was nothing but drinking and dominoes for all




So it goes



I signed on to this trip some 4 weeks in advance and the anticipation was ailing me, waiting for this cat to show up so we can take off to paradise was even worse. I'd like to share that pain with my fellow readers.
