J&r, there are several of us that live or lived in Vegas on this Board and now live in SP. I lived there for 30 years before escaping to AZ and have 3 Kids and several Grandkids that still live there that call me back. So, SP is your escape from Vegas. A beauftiful island with wonderful preople who are happy and have fun every day. You will be amazed! Come and enjoy.

Read all the replys and thought them to be funny and canny at the same time. If you have never experienced SP, you really have no idea. The last thing you want to do is "plan" anything in San Pedro. The magic of SP is to not do, but just let it happen. Las Vegas is a whole different experience and fantastic as it ay be, fast paced, jingle jangle everywhere, San Pedro , well just breathe and be in the moment!!!!

jette, i couldnt agree more...just go and let SP happen.

on a serious note, they might get a real charge from watching locals punta in the nightclubs.

I can only speak for myself, but when I am in SP, Soon , very soon, I look forward to the colors, smells, nuance, and romance of Ambergris caye and SAN Pedro. That spells out "beautiful" for me. Seems like I wont be around there when Las Vegas happens. I am ok with that.

What is with the demon icon attached to my last post?! Strange.

On a more serious note - the HIV rate is very high in Belize.
Please be sensible and take appropriate care.

PB - looks liked another item added to the re-con agenda.

I want to thank every one for the reply's to my post. This is a great message board. We were looking to see if there were any hidden secrets in AC and found that there really are none and that is great. My new wife and I will enjoy the quiet and peace that SP offers and will only take pictures and leave bubbles. ( oh I we will leave a few bottles of Belikin empty)
This will be my second trip to Belize and Rina and my first to SP. My first trip was spent on the Sundancer for a week of diving. I fell in love with the country on that trip 4 years ago.
Besides looking to decompress from the city life for a much needed vacation a main objective for this trip is to get Rina finished up on her open water cert. 50' water of lake mead does not sound like the place to get certified so knowing that the waters of Belize being warm, calm and flat and nice sea life is the perfect place to create a lasting love of diving. Any suggestions of a instructor/dive shop on the north side of SP?

To comment on a few posts in this thread :
Thanks for the heads up on the poker game, but ill pass. Just because we live in Las Vegas does not mean we gamble. But I do have the Saints + 5
As for being a fly on the wall, ya got to try it sometime. Actually we are all a fly on the wall at times, some walls have a more interesting view if you seek them out. I land on many walls, some are quiet and relaxing, some are hot and stimulating and some are with a TV remote with a bag of popcorn. Anyway we are all voyeur's one way or another. We all get some kind of pleasure/displeasure from watching, though the pleasure my not be the same for all of us. If you turn on the nightly news,reality show or a show like entertainment tonight you are being a voyeur.

I felt like a voyeur visiting the war zone and seeing badly injured people being dragged from their bomb-shattered homes.

Aloha and Cheers
