On our second day in Belize, we traveled by water taxi to
the island of San Pedro. It took us
about 1.5 hours to get to the island from Belize City. We spent the afternoon snorkeling at shark
alley where we swam with the nurse sharks and mantra rays… and yes, we all came
back in one piece! We also went to
another location where we saw more of the water life such as sea turtles,
lobsters, sea urchins, and a variety of different fish. After snorkeling, we
went to Elvi’s Kitchen for dinner where we ate a traditional Belizean meal of
stewed chicken, rice, and beans. To end
out 2013 year, we partook in the New Year’s Eve traditions of Belize where some
of our students participated in a dance-off with one of the locals. We celebrated bringing in the New Year and
look forward to the knowledge and experiences we will gain 2014!
