Day 219. Thursday, 5th March. From the Old Marina in Belize City to Hopkins, Belize.

Someone we spoke to in Mexico and asked if topes were just a plague in Mexico, or if they were rampant through Central and South America, told us they were just a Mexican feature. They lied. Belize has its fair share too. Although here they are just referred to as…

Day 217. Tuesday, 3rd March. From Orange Walk to Belize City.

Last night we had a firefly attach itself to the tent. We spotted it when we went to the bathroom. Then we came across frogs hopping all around us. This morning we had a dragonfly in the Caranex, which Charley and Jaxon tried to catch. I think it got squashed…

Day 215. Sunday, 1st March at Yax-Ha Resort just outside Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico.

Our last day in Mexico. Tomorrow we head into Belize. A pretty lazy day. Everything is washed, Poki has had a clean and we are rested and ready to head to a new country. Great excitement half way through the morning. Jaxon caught a fish with his net. He’d been…

Day 213. Friday, 28th February. From Buenavista to Yax-Ha Resort, just north of Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico.

I was quite disappointed to leave our site by Laguna Bacalar at Buenavista. However, the consensus was to move on. It was a shame that the weather was overcast and it was quite muddy, due to the previous night’s rain. The Lagoon is very beautiful and in sunlight the water…

Day 211. Wednesday, 26th February. From Isla Blanca to Selva El Jabali near Tulum.

Leaving Isla Blanca, for the second time, we headed into Cancun to restock with provisions. At just after 9am the kite surfers were already in the air with more arriving all the time. We stopped at the large bin by the exit to relieve ourselves of some of the packaging…

Day 209. Monday, 24th February. Off to Miami, Florida, USA

A very short night. Dennis’s phone alarm woke me at 4am. (He of impaired hearing, couldn’t hear it!) Mine failed to go off. In fact I couldn’t find the phone, but eventually found it under the mattress when packing up. Neither of us felt like moving. After cornflakes and granola…

Day 207. Saturday, 22nd Feb. Still on the beach at Isla Blanca. Quintana Roo Province, Mexico.

Not a lot to report today, I’m afraid. It was a very bad night, as we were nearly blown away by the wind. We had had to move pronto, as the tide rapidly approached the Carinex tent. Dennis has reported on our difficulties keeping the tent from blowing away, when…

Day 205. Thursday, 20th February. From a beach at Isla Blanca between the Caribbean Sea and Laguna Chakmochuk, Quintana Roo Province, Mexico

We have missed out Chichen Itza, probably the most well known Maya ruin in Mexico. Having already seen a number of sites and fearing Chichen Itza would be heaving with tourists and expensive to enter, we decided to pass it by. There are more ruins when we get further south.…

Day 203. Tuesday, 18th April. At Cenote Choj Ha, Yucatan, Mexico.

We have now visited 4 Cenotes. They are all completely different. Yesterday afternoon we stopped at Cenote X’ux Ha. Dennis stayed in Poki working on his blog, while the rest of us went in for a swim. More sophisticated than the others we have visited, hence the 75 peso entrance…

Day 201. On the beach at El Cuyo, Yucatan, Mexico.

Another day on the beach at El Cuyo. We were awake early to use the internet before too many other people logged on. A good signal was necessary to book flights to Miami. Yes, we are going to Miami next week to get a new compressor for the fridge and…
