90 Days in Belize

8 years ago
Belize, man, Belize I approach her carefully hairs standing up on the back of my neck such a beautiful creature as I have ever seen here on earth and quite literally so. As I come closer to her, Belize blossoms into reality underfoot and I think and say often the phrase, “feet on the ground” for the first few weeks. It is on my 4th day I think when I swam naked in Progresso Lagoon one late afternoon floating on my back eyes closed thinking now I FEEL like I'm really in Belize!


Getting grounded took a couple months really for me that is what a beautiful woman can do you. Belize knocked me off center. She is exotic and beautiful and alluring but just as in another person, most of her lies beneath the surface beauty. I see bright white sunlight glance off of waters so clear Caribbean blue that I have to wonder if it were real? But under those waters wow what a world you don't see without snorkeling or diving gear just amazing. I had read so many times a phrase that “The most beautiful part of Belize is under the surface of the sea”. And then I saw that. But physical beauty abounds throughout Belize above and below the water, from mountains to beach seems like most anywhere you go - allowing for some bad areas here and there like anywhere else.

And like any beautiful woman, Belize draws in all the attention, you know, always there to take thoughts off of myself. Three months now I can say sincerely that I have barely scratched Her surface. I'm not saying I'm ready to marry Belize, mind you, more like I'm saying we're gonna move in together and see how it goes.
