I decided to break these up a little because there are many photos that I want to share. Dennis and I are having a great time. Whether staying at home or going out to swim somewhere, we are having such a fun time with the kids. We are trying to get in as many visits as we can before we leave in July. As we are sharing with the kids we know that it will be very difficult to leave.

We had an unexpected group of visitors on this day. I went to pick up three young ladies from the village and they weren't there. So, I found these guys and we went home and ate lunch and watched movies.
These are some of the younger kids from Standard 3. They made some of those yummy No-Bake Chocolate Peanutbutter cookies. They were awesome!

Looking in through the back window. Larry, Estefany, Tania, and Emely. |
This is still another day with Dayrin, Zuly Jonathan and Gabriel.

The kids always rush to the back veranda to get the binoculars! |

We took the long drive out to Big Rock Falls with Yeslin and Jeldin. The drive is only about 35 miles but it takes forever, and it's really out in the middle of no where. We have known these two since before we actually moved down here.
|
The water seemed extra clear today. |
Jeldin was heading for a large rock that is ahead of him just under the water. When he stood on the rock he realized that he had a tiny worm on his arm. He showed it to Yeslin and you should have seen her face. She turned around quickly and asked me to help her out of the water. It was almost like she had seen a snake or shark in the water. So, now we know what scares Yeslin....little, tiny worms.
The falls appear very small here, but we are a long way down stream.
Then we started to have fun with the underwater features of the camera!
|
This doesn't even look like Jeldin!! |
|
We sat on those rocks in the foreground and watched some crazy guys jump down from the sides of the falls. Unfortunately, we did not get a picture of them jumping! |
|
Nice picture showing how clear the water was. |
|
Had to get Jeldin and Yeslin to join the Belize Jumpers Club! That is my white leg in the back. |
|
Yeslin, who didn't seem to care that much about worms anymore. |
|
They got me to slide down the rocks. Lots of fun! |
|
Doesn't the water look so refreshing! It was a great break from the heat. |

The mist from the falls on Jeldin's face. |
A bunch of touristy gringos showed up and we chatted with them for a bit. A very nice lady took this final picture for us. Yes, I am that white.
There are many things to do here. We have been here long enough to know where to go when you don't have much money and Big Rock Falls is one of our favorites!
Easter vacation is quickly coming to a close! We have had a lot of fun with our kids and still look forward to fun times!
Love you guys!
