Weekend Days








We packed the weekend days with several Belizean cultural and natural experiences.  The day started early on Saturday as we loaded up to go to Placencia to snorkle on the second largest barrier reef in the world.  We swam in the Caribbean Sea and enjoyed time on a couple of small islands.  Next we had some time to shop in some of the local arts and crafts shops on the Placencia.  Lunch in a little sandwich shop on the beach.  All in all, a great day. 

Sunday was filled with church in Red Bank for a few of us, and the rest went to the Cockcomb Basin Jaguar Preserve for a hike to the waterfall and to see some of the rainforest.  The groups met in time for lunch in Hopkins Village.  We took some time to relax, play some volleyball, kayak, and eat at the Jaguar Reef resort.   Everyone had a great time and came back rested and ready to prepare for teaching tomorrow.  - Margaret Pentecost
