Last day in Belize

Well today is our last day in Belize! It has been a very good experience for us and for me has been a dream come true! I have always wanted to live in the Caribbean and now I can say I have! I even have a Belizean drivers licence! We are looking forward to seeing our friends and family in Malta and Marcelle is real excited to see some of the old FH kids as well. Well I guess that you are not kids any more but to Marcelle you will always be her Firehouse kids! We cant wait! Our friends Jeff & Shira are off to the States for a few months. We had the privilege of driving them up into Mexico to catch their plane. We drove to a town called Playa del Carmen and the family caught a bus to the Cancun airport from there. It was a real good trip and we were blessed to have had the opportunity to go. We did some cave diving there in things called cenotes. It is a Mayan name meaning sacred cave. They are very large, very old caves on the Yucatan peninsula that have over the years caved in and then filled with rain water! It was so cool with the underwater stalactites and stalagmites all over the place not to mention our first experience with a halocline(the layer where fresh water on top and salt water on the bottom combine making everything hazy). We both had a blast and it felt good to do something for ourselves before we leave. At the moment we are packing all our stuff into what we will take to Malta and what we will store here in Belize, we are trying to sell our Isuzu trooper and today we have to either sell or take the motorbike to a friends for her to sell. We are busy but I just wanted to stop by to update you all on what we are doing. We are scheduled to leave here at 11:00 am Belize time on Friday and we arrive in Malta on Sunday morning at 2:30 am Malta time! I hope we can get some sleep this time! To all in Malta, we will see you soon! To everyone else, please remember that we love you and think of you often. We appreciate all of your love, prayers, support and encouragement. We would love to hear from you anytime so if you would like to leave a comment here, please feel free to click on the comments section at the bottom of this (or any) box. However, we would also love to hear from you via email. Till next time Doug & Marcelle
