The Cayes!!!




So.. today we went to the long awaited, Cayes. It was the most beautiful thing I've seen in a LONG time, possibly forever. So our day began at 5:30 in the morning, jumped into the freezing shower, and headed on the bus at 7:00. We drove for an hour and a half to the Caribbean Sea. Once there, we boarded 2 boats and drove 45 minutes to the South Key Island.

As soon as we got there, 8 of us went snorkeling. I've never been and it was so beautiful! Belize has the second largest coral reefs. (Australia is first) We did that for half an hour and then the next group went out. After that we hung out at the beach until lunch, ate lunch, and went back to the beach. We all went out there looking for an also long awaited tan... and boy did we get it. Actually, it's a burn, almost everyone got burnt. Laura and I are in so much pain. We are constantly putting on Aloe Vera and we can't decide if we're hot or cold. We have goosebumps but if you were to touch our skin it's soooo hot, kinda weird.

So that was our day, so amazing. I'm so excited to go again... 2 weeks! Hopefully, we'll put on sunscreen this time.
