did you check in with "her" this AM and see if said garments were left behind?

Gazing over the reef.

See! This is great! For every one negative thing, you can probably name ten great things about this place. Frickin love it. And I second all of the above. Keep it going!

Diving in the beautiful reef with my children and husband. Feeling the pressures of the world leave us the minute we land. Old friends and new we have yet to meet. Seeing my kids love such a beautiful place and want to come back to time and time again,

Well, since you are over the limit on positives, I'm here for the negatives. Ah........you get a pass this time!

I have yet to pinpoint why I love this island...but I do.

As the sun sets; standing on the balcony, I take a deep breath and know that I am home.

You can vacation all over the world and never really meet with the locals in a way that happens on AC. Bartenders, hotel staff and waiters and waitresses become your friends. When you fly back to Goldson you become sad. AC becomes a home away from home. When you return it is like wearing your favorite shirt, the place just fits...

Everyone has pretty much covered it, I'd say.

Best thing for me that comes to mind is the smile on my friend's faces when they welcome me back to the island.

i love that when i'm sad, friends show up with a surprise party. i love that when you leave the house, you will always find a face to smile at you. I love our flaws, and i love our problems, they are part of us just like humans flaws and problems are part of them. I love that when we do have problems, the ENTIRE community comes together to take care of each other.

I love that we are a family. Sure, there some second and third "cousins" i prefer not spend any more time with than i must, but if something bad happened, i'd be the first one there...and i'd like to think they for me. I love that we fight, we forget, we make up, we love, we stray away, we move and ebb and flow with each other over time...

I love being 'part of something bigger' than me... in a big city, you are singular. Here, we are all plural... we are all Belize.

viva la belice!
