Breaking down in the jungle

DAY 301!
Barton Creek, Belize
I packed up and decided to head west with Katrijn and Eva. I was going to have to go to Guatemala no matter what, there is no vehicle ferry to Honduras. I would have a dilemma soon though since it seemed that is where all my new friends from Caye Caulker would [...]

3 thrills a day

Hopkins, Belize
Visiting a salsa factory isn’t really very thrilling but its interesting to see. Marie Sharp is a Belizean legend and her hot sauce is on over table in the country. Pop into the factory for a tour if you’re passing that way.
After that we went swimming in the Blue Hole [...]

Day 200 - but am I happy?

Day 200
Valle de Bravo, Mexico
After a few days in Morelia I headed closer to Mexico City on Sunday and made the mistake of checking into a small hotel with cable TV and the Internet. My body clock was messed up in Guadalajara and this hasn’t helped. I was supposed to be paragliding in Valle de [...]

Shocking roads

Day 158
Somewhere in Baja California Sur
After getting gas and not having to worry about driving like a maniac the dusty, sandy road we had attempted the previous day didn’t seem to bad. We soon learned our mistake in that the road was really only rocky at the start, there were plenty of campsites soon after [...]

Lazy La Paz

Day 149
La Paz, BCS, Mexico
We returned to Super Tacos and this time they had Manta-ray, which was kind of weird. It had the consistency of cheap tuna all mashed up and I got  the deep fried one which was a mistake. Around the corner we went shopping at the Pastry place Sheena had spotted as [...]

Surprise! You have diarrhea!

Day 103:Arizona
As tempting as it was to stay longer in the amazing hot bed of vice and sin we had to get a hustle on back to Texas for Christmas. I was looking forward to my first Christmas in America, despite the fact I didn’t eat turkey I’m sure it was going to be a [...]
