Arrived mid afternoon, into Hickatee Cottages.   A lush steamy jungle setting, beautiful grounds with lovely cottages sprinkled throughout.  My first thought was to peel off my clothes, since I will still dressed for the 30 degree weather of San Antonio.  It is owned by a English couple, I was corrected from calling them British.

I lay down on the comfortable bed, listening to the jungle sounds, punctuated by occasional call of a nearby colony of howler monkeys. Ahh, resting my travel weary bones and listening to the soft patter of the steady rain. Later went into town for dinner. A layed back place on the water, ate fresh caught fish to reaggae tunes of Bob Marley. Wound up eating with a couple of ex-pats, surfers from southern California now farmers in Belize.

Retired early to the sounds of the jungle and more soft raindrops.
