somewhere in the caribbean






hi guys
I hope you are all well.
congratulations to my sister Carla and Jay on the birth of their son Deisel.. 9 pound.. i am sure that hurt... well done guys

Since i left you last i have been floating around in the Caribbean. First stop Cozumel which is a little island.. some where off Cancun.I was still traveling with my travel buddy from Germany Jan...Not much to do here except eat great pastries.

Mind you we decided to go for a motor bike ride late one night. After riding in the pitch black of the night on a dirt road we pulled up at a beach to meet a man guarding the beach... in the dark...mmmm
he told us not to travel the road and to leave because we are in the mafia drug running road and we should have been stopped by the police road block.. which i think we missed....
he told us to get on the bike and go back and not stop for anyone...which we did.
Until we were pulled up by the police who searched my backpack saying something about turtle eggs... now do we really look like we are drug running with the mafia?.

Next stop the Country of Belize...where i spent valentines day, my birthday and carnivale. What a beautiful country ... we stayed on the island of San Pedro... which Madonna sang about in one of her songs.
Birthday was great and relaxed.. i found the worlds best banana bread and key lime pie.

Belize is like an island off the Whitsundays. its hosts itself to the second largest reef (of course we have the best in Australia) we did some amazing diving. i even held a 1.5m nurse shark. we saw eagle rays, eels and huge gropers.
Although i didn't dive the worlds famous blue hole (which is 130ft deep) the photos were amazing.

Working on my sun tan and lying in hammocks are how my days are spent.

Thank you to all those who sent face book and emails remembering my birthday... i am truly grateful when i am so far away from home

until next time

kat on endless vacation
