Belize — A Photo Travelogue – 14

There are so many images I could put into a blog on Belize and Caye Caulker, but I’ll make this the last one in the Belize — A Photo Travelogue series. I’ll save more for a new Same Place — Different View series with images, of course, from Belize.

We were charmed by Caye Caulker — as those of you who have been following this blog know — and went our photographing every day, at all times of day. There were scenes that we kept revisiting, as they always looked different.

Perhaps it was the colors against the azure of the sea beyond.

I love wooden sailboats, and this scene gave me two out of three!

One afternoon, we had gone down to The Split sans cameras so that we go in the water if we wanted. Coming back, we were greeted by the gathering storm clouds. I sprinted back to our hotel to grab my camera, then hightailed it back in time to do a series of shots.

Looking across the island, we could see that the sun was trying for some color in the sky as it set. Lickety-split, I raced back to the other side by our hotel.

Yes, we’ll be back next year, both to Caye Caulker and to southern Belize amongst the Mayan people. Can’t wait. Until then, we have workshops in Savannah and the Outer Banks, Virginia and Maine, three in Europe, three in the southwest …

  1. When I was at CIA, an investigation took some co-workers to Belize. I was so jealous when they returned and talked about wonderful it was. Now I can see what they meant. Since I’ll probably never get there now, I can live vicariously through these amazing photos!

    All the best, Deb

    1. Deby,

      Belize was truly an amazing experience. Those who had not done this type of a trip before were totally captivated. Those who had been in the jungle and rain forest before loved it. For us, the best part was the open and welcoming nature of the Mayan people. I think we are really lucky, as it probably won’t be like this in ten years!

      And for those who are reading these comments, there are some amazingly cheap airfares to Belize now, if you are interested in our 2011 return to the Mayan people, this might be the time to nail down your plane ticket.

      Take care,

      TBC
