Caye Caulker Beach, Belize

 I've always heard about the blue waters surrounding the islands of Belize.  Seeing it with my own eyes as we bobbed along the ocean's surface in a little boat was surreal.  It is impossible to describe the shades of blues and greens and greys all around us.  After snorkeling over the reefs and seeing fish, eel, nurse sharks and sting rays that I've only before ever seen in books, we docked at Caye Caulker for the remainder of the day.  This island is so small!  We walked the length of it in just a few minutes, stopping for ice cream and to admire the local crafts being sold along the beach.  Finally we sat down in the cool shade of the coconut palms on the beach, and passed the remainder of our time soaking in the sounds and sights of this tropical paradise.

(This should be one long photo, with the boat on the left and the grass-covered dock on the right.)
