Today was a free day! The day started at breakfast at the beach. Then I went into town to do some shopping. I went to the Belize Chocolate Company where I sampled a few truffles- my favorite was a dark chocolate truffle filled with chocolate ganache and pink champagne- YUM!! I also got a great deal on a red and turquoise necklace and anklet I wanted! From there I headed to the beach to lay our for a few hours. Apparently I wasn't very good at sunscreen application so I now have a handprint on my back! :-)
Dr. Parker and I had planned on going windsurfing- we did the 15 minute lesson and the guide put my board in the water but of course it then began to downpour with high winds. It got so bad that glasses at the bar fell and broke and the power went out throughout the town. Of course, once the storm stopped, there was no wind at all, so we weren't able to go windsurfing :-(. Maybe next time! We continued the evening by going out to dinner at "The Office", which is a restaurant on the water; I had a huge plate of delicious shrimp ceviche! Finally, we returned to Pedro's Inn for karaoke! A group of us sang a few songs but Genie in a Bottle was definitely our best hit!! It was a great free day!
