Lauri & Brandy
I also recall either you or Rick saying that this time of year is your normal visit. What's the weather usually like? Obviously you can't really predict it, we just hope we get lucky.
Hey ya all,
The weather can be fickle at times, during our travels there we have had great weather, then we have had a couple of hurricanes scoot by us.
When Mitch hit, that was right before we went down and it was a mess, but still had a great time. Don't worry, you can not have a bad time on Ambergris!!!!!!!! Hope to hook up with ya all.
We will be staying at the Holiday, and yes they have a great Halloween party, bring your dress up!!!!! Sorry we are going to miss this on, we be there on the 29th!!!
Rick
Weather is great right now, last two days more then a foot rain. It`s fishing time !!
No shower any more, all for free. (exept BELEKIN)
Bernd
We will be there 10/25-11/3 - staying at the Mayan Princess - definitely in count-down mode - woo-hoo!! How many more hours?!?!
Vic & Janet
V&J we too are in count down mode, can't come soon enough!! We will be there on the 25th as well.
Lauri
Hey, Lauri - We'll have to meet up down there. Are you & Brandy divers? We dive with Amigos, and are planning other day trips (Caye Caulker, cave tubing, etc.) Maybe we can join forces......Janet
Janet,
Yes, Brandy and I are divers. As a matter of fact we already have reservations with Amigos for 3 days of diving. We are diving Monday 10/28, 29, 30. Monday were doing local diving and a night dive and then tuesday were doing The Elbow, then Wed, more local diving. Would be great if you joined us.
We are also doing the Cave tubing...funny enough we are trying to find someone to do t with us because it is cheaper if you have 4 people. We are doing the cave tubing with Ian Anderson's Caves Branch on Saturday 10/26. We are staying in Belize City the day we arrive 10/25 specifically to do the Cave tubing. So, if you want to do the tubing with us, we would LOVE that.
Let me know,
Lauri ~
Hi All,
Been a while since I said hello...R&C...I'm soooo jealous...pout pout...
Well Lauri, that's 3 days we'll have to forget about. Your at the top of my dating age scale but Brandy is still in the game.
How about it Brandy (love the name) Will you be here today, gone tomorrow or will this be more permanent?
Well Sandcrab,
Although I am 35 I am a young 35... As for Brandy if you love her first name you'll get a kick out of her last... Kaake (as in Cake) and no it's not a joke. Thank god her parents didn't decide to name her Patty!!!!
Unfortunately for you, Brandy is taken so your out of luck! LOL
Lauri
AXEMAN good to see you, been a very long time.
Big Hello to you, and please stay tuned in more often.
Yeah Mark.....keep in touch!!! I saw Rick's pictures....you look good!! Glad the two of you had a good time!!! Wish i could've been there!!! (explaination=Rick had a "working vacation" in D.C., right close to where Axeman aka Mark, lives....we met him a few years back on AC!!! Save your $$$$ for April!!! C
Sorry to see that I'll be missing all you boarders. Im takin' off tomorrow, and would've loved to toss back a Belikin with all of ya. Been kinda quiet on the board myself, but love watchin' all these great threads go by.
I'll raise a few definitely-not-a-12-oz.-beer bottles for ya. Maybe this Spring my timing will be better.
<alarm on "countdown clock" rings> Woo Hoo!
Have a great time RUBBA ! ! ! !
Axeman---
thanks for your care up in DC... All I can say is SOON my man!!!!!!!!!!
take care Bro, copy of pics coming to ya!!!!
Rick
OK--
All who are going to be there during these times, you can find us at the Holiday- Hang over Bar!!!! LOL See ya all there very soon!!!!
Rick
RickCheri! When will your Beach House get finished? The best of luck to you guys.
Hey, Lauri - sorry for the delay, got sucked into work, and sent on a last minute business trip.
We haven't made any concrete plans for diving - The Elbow trip sounds really interesting, tho. We were gonna hang kind of loose, and plan things as we went along. I doubt we'll be able to make the tubing with Ian - altho I would love to do it, not sure we can work it out logistically.
I'll be back home from Brussels on Saturday - I'll check with Vic and see what we can pull off......Janet
No worries Janet,
We will be at the Belize Yacht Club on the evening of the 26th so you can always find us there if you want to do some diving or anything else.
A little over a week to go, we are beyond excited!
Lauri
The house is water tight and almost done, should be finished soon!!!!!!!! No More HOTEL!!!!!
OK ya all, lets find a date, time and place to meet!!!! You all call it, and we'll be there!!! 12 more days!!!!!!!!! See ya there!!!!
Rick
:p
Yes,
ONLY 11 more days!!!!!!!!
Rick
Hi All, 5 more days and were off!!!
Rick & Cheri, I have no opinion on where or what time to meet since I am a first timer to AC & Belize.
You pick it and we'll be there!
See ya all soon,
Lauri & Brandy
ACTUALLY .....I'M PICKING IT RIGHT NOW
Lauri and Brandy..it's hard to make plans and keep them on the island...at times. LOL...we may have a small party at our house one night....we'll be at the Holiday Hotel....if we're not there leave a message..would love to hook up with you all...show you around!!! We arrive on the 29th!!! C
Good Night MQQSE......and again, i am sorry......C
You can always find us most of the time Early evening at the Hang Over Bar in the Holiday Hotel!!!!! Stop by and get a Beliken!!!!!!
Rick
Hey, Lauri - no worries - I love that!!! We just have to wait 3+ more days if work doesn't kill me first
We're at the Mayan Princess, I also might pop down to Amigos on Monday morning just to say hey. Just tell Mel that you're looking for Janet/Vic. Not sure if we'll be diving right away - this cold snap up here in Milwaukee has given us monster colds!! But hey, that's what drugs are for, right?
And no matter what - we're on vacation!!!!!!!
Rick/Cheri - we'll look you up at the Holiday.....
...........Janet
Cool, same for us here with the rain and cold, fighting a bad cold right now. It will be gone before we leave, See ya at the Holiday!!!!
Rick
Hi everyone,
I just wanted to take a moment to tell you all thank you for all the excellent advice and recommendations in planning our trip to Belize. I will be posting a trip report upon our return.
We are just a few hours away from departure and hope to see you all down in AC!
Janet & Rick, hope you are feeling better and that those nasty colds you had have gone away.
See ya in AC,
Lauri & Brandy ~
Hello everyone!
Its been a few months since I've been on the board but just couldn't resist at least saying hello. The board has changed a lot since I was here last - avatar, etc. but still lookin' good.
Seajay, Johnboy, Richard Chambers...where are you guys? Hibernating for winter?? Me, too, I suppose.
Anyway, have a great time on your trip to Belize! Have a Belikin for me...heck, have anything. I'm now 4 months pregnant and can only enjoy the stuff vicariously.
Peace,
Pagodacook
The only cold Rick had was brown bottle Fever..hehe...Man April is SOOOO far away!!!!Can I start counting?
Hey Pagodacook - Yep, I was pretty much hybernating through the winter. This is the first time I've checked this board in quite a while. You must be pretty close to your DUE date by now. Be sure to let us know how things go! I hope Johnboy and Richard check in too. We miss you guys!
Man, SeaJay-check in more often!!! This was the thread posted before our LAST trip....end of October....this is the NEXT trip...April 22nd!!! Thanks for bringing it to the top......lots of memories!!!! C
Hey Seajay!!!!!! Where you been????I check the board pretty regular...Swap e-mail with Richard nearly every day....Give me a holler & I'll fill you in on the going ons.....Later, Johnboy
:p
