It looks like it could tow the caye off. <br />I brewed a cup of the fancy tea this morning to take the chill off of the coldest night we have had so far. It got down to 66F! The tea was good. Now I have socks on and a blanket wrapped around me. Feels like winter!Wilmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14717012784233946753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3252308131554892866.post-65656238766690027252021-12-24T10:42:54.860-06:002021-12-24T10:42:54.860-06:00My favorite, Danish-style butter cookies!

The birding here is amazing. Although lacking the higher altitude birds that you find in Costa Rica, Belize makes up for it in other ways. Belize Audubon Society has a good website to whet your appetite!Wilmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14717012784233946753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3252308131554892866.post-71747024752176432532021-12-24T09:01:04.714-06:002021-12-24T09:01:04.714-06:00Hi Chris!

They contribute a small amount to the economy of Belize and much more to the economy of the cruise line owners. But I do rejoice in seeing them as a sign that the global economy and tourism in general are showing signs of life. I would rejoice more if the cruise lines were more generous to the honest tour guides and business people of Belize instead of greasing the palms of those who can grant permits, etc. Wilmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14717012784233946753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3252308131554892866.post-82757056671670545362021-12-24T06:13:31.479-06:002021-12-24T06:13:31.479-06:00It's good to see the economy recovering.
