So there I was… waking up in LAX at 4am to check in, then trolled the shops for a few hours until my flight took off for Dallas Fort Worth. I slept the whole way there! That is the way to fly!

Off the plane and I made straight for the next gate as I only had 50 minutes to connect… it was only down the hall so no worries. Found a Pulled Pork Sandwich for lunch then waited… and waited… the flight was delayed! This is the first flight out of 19 on this trip to be delayed and American Airlines takes that sad award. Oh well, it was only 30 minutes.

But in the air, while I was sleeping again, we were delayed a further 30 minutes, landing 1 hour late in Belize City.

When there, I found there was not a public bus to take me to town so I had to get a taxi, which I hate doing. But when I got to my guesthouse, The Seaside Guesthouse, I thought things would be better… and they were! I got a private room, since I just wanted one after hostelling it and could have it for US$25. I then went out and explored the mostly closed Belize City.

That's the tourist bit I was not in

There were a lot of friendly dogs around. This particular one was constantly play biting my hand

The local crazy wanted a picture

This looked nice - nothing to say about it though

I went back to the hostel and got talking to a few people, eventually ending up having a curry for tea and then going to the casino to loose BZD15! (that’s only USD7.50)

The next day though, I wanted out, so I headed to Caye Caulker! I think it was the Metro system that put me off city life:

Hmm
