Yesterday we woke up on Saint George’s caye and we packed our bags and had breakfast and then we got the boat and headed off to Belize city.. Thank you so so so much Barry and the rest of the crew from St. George’s caye resort!!!!!!

When we got there we got a van to the bus station to cach our bus to Guatemala.
The bus ride was a 4 and a half hour bus ride.

And on the bus ride all we did was sleep the whole way.

When we got here to El Remate, we found a shop that had really good pastry for 50 ¢ NZ so we bought alot of pastry and then we came home to find a good movie….

…..and lay in bed until we went to sleep because we knew we had to wake up at 5:00 tomorrow morning.

Last night we went out on a boat and got anchored and then we jumped feet first into blackness.

We had torches and we turned them on before jumping in but I was still very nervous.

But when we jumped in I sank right to the bottom with no problems at all with my ears.

While we were down there we saw……

1 octopuss.

2 eels

Heaps of fish and some massive crabs about 1 meter wide.

Here’s a video of Dad and me spearing lion fish.

 

 

Oh and were staying here for another 2 days relaxing for Guatemala.

 

I have to go eat lunch so yum yum yum.

 

Yum yum.

Hey guys, I have’nt been doing blogs lately because i’ve been training for my open water certificate in S.C.U.B.A. diving.

Did you know, S.C.U.B.A stands for self contained, under water, breathing, apparatus.

Now I have completed the scuba certificate I can dive any where in the world, including night dives.

This is what I did to get my certificate. I did a pool dive and learned all of the safety rules. I did 4 open water dives, and then I did a test on the memory of the book and dives.

But now I can do heaps more stuff under water.

This morning we went out on the boat and did 2 dives spearing lion fish, and on the second dive we went to a tug boat wreck and there were so many lion fish there, that your spear was just going back and forth, back and forth.

We were down at 100 ft (30 meters) and it was amazing.

Tonight we’re going for a night dive with torches and stuff. I’m a little bit nervous.

I have to get ready for the night dive so blub blub blub.

 

Blub blub.

This morning we woke up and we were all excited to finally be going to the diving place.

We packed our bags straight away and we were walking off down the street towards the place where we got picked up by the boat.

The place that we got picked up at was a fancy hotel and a guy walked past and asked if we wanted a hellicopter ride out to the island, but we said no thanks because our boat was coming in 2 minutes.

When our boat arrived we hopped on and the water was so clear on the way out.

But when we got there it was so spectacular to take in that nothing came out of our mouths.

Our cabin is really nice. It’s right over the water and we have a swiming pool too for the scuba diving training.

Dad and myself kayaked out to a sand bar today and we saw….

1. 3 spotted stingrays while we were in the water.

2. 7/8 baracuda.

We kayaked about six km today and when we got back dad had to drink a bottle of coke.

Anyway I have to go eat dinner so see you next time. Bye

This morning we woke up, got our stuff together and caught a taxi to the bus station to catch a bus to Belize.

It’s so crazy how many people they stuff into the bus.

Dad barely had one butt-cheek on the seat and Helen had old lady sweat dripping slowly down her arm.

When we stopped, we grabbed some burritos and we were off.

 

On the way we saw a tiny cop van that only had three wheels.

We’re staying at a place called Bella Sombra guest house and they have a very tidy kitchen so…… Dads going to make it a little bit messy by making pasta YUUUUUUUUUM!!!!!!!!

I FEEL MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!$¢¥€™℅℅°°√|°¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!¡!¡!

 

I haven’t been feeling that well this last week, but with the help of a doctor we have found out that I am lacking B-12 vitamins. Some of the signs are……. low energy, persistant cough, and upset belly.

Some of the foods I should have are meat,eggs and dairy.

They are all providing me with B-12 vitamins and foodness of goodness.

After 24 hours of taking 2 B-12 vitamins and eating good amounts of food, I am feeling much better and my cough is nearly gone.

 

Hey guys, guess what!!! I’m even wrestling with my dad again.

We have been hanging out in a city called Chetumal for the last three days at a nice hotel with a pool and a good movie channel.

Tomorrow we are going to Belize!!!!!!!! On our way to go diving.

 

Bye see ya

I’m back with Dad and Helen,
we went to the Bacalar lagoon.
It was so hot outside,
I had to get in the water soon.
This is the end of the rhyme,
Because I’m off to have a really good time.

Start of blog.

While we were in the lagoon, Dad and I found a small hole that went really deep.

Dad stuck his foot down into it and his head went under the water and that’s how deep it was. When we hit rock we

didn’t want to push through because we thought there might be a cave underneath us and if it did open up we

would get sucked under and probably drown.

Anyway, while we were in Bacalar we stayed at a nice pirate place and the people were so nice but now we’re here
In Chetumal relaxing.

I have to go get in the pool now so bye.

Bye bye.

I haven’t really been feeling that good lately, I’ve had a fever and a cough so I’ve just been watching The Hobbit and eating nice food, and having family time.

These were some photos that Dani took of me a few days ago when we were swimming with Mia. I was feeling ok then.

Yesterday we left Tulum and headed for Bacalar it took 2 hours to get there on collectivo’s and on the way we had a few snacks of chips and a meat sandwich tostada thing. It was yum.

On the way this is what I did. Sleep. Wake up. Sleep. Get out of the van.Get into a another van. Sleep. Wake up. Sleep. Get out of the van……You probably get it now so…

Once we got there we got a taxi to take us to mums friends house. Wow when we got there we were amazed!  She lives right on the ege of a beautiful lake called Bacalar Lagoon, we met her family and then walked out on the pier and jumped in the water with all our clothes on. It was awesome.

We realised I wasnt feeling too well and I had a fever so Nita said I could watch a really nice movie called song of the sea about the Silkies in Ireland. Then I went to bed and sweated hard all night but I woke up feeling alot better.

We’re having a cruisy day here today, we went kayaking and have been relaxing and hanging out with everyone and playing with the dogs.
