Day 5 - 16/07/13

An early rise this morning for the water taxi to Belize City. This is where we say our goodbyes! We do so at the arrival dock and once again I am on my own.

This is okay, though. I am really enjoying my book - cleverly written and very philosophical - and I am surprised at how easy it is to get a taxi to the bus station and then a bus to San Ignacio, which takes two hours.

In no time, I have checked in at a very laid back guest house and have a single room. I am glad for the chance to relax, particularly because I am really quite burnt on my back - I put sunscreen on for the snorkelling but neglected to factor in (pun intended) the actual time in the water, during which ones back is facing directly up to the sun.

Once done, I head out and book myself two big tours for the next two days. I am really rinsing money! But Guatemala will be cheaper and I can hopefully get back onto budget.

After a spot of lunch I have an afternoon nap, which is much needed. I get up about 6pm and have a couple of beers and a light dinner. I am excited about tomorrow!
