January 29/30: All of our flights and connections went very smoothly. Plane #1 left Detroit at 9 PM only a little late because it had to de-ice. It arrived a few minutes early in Atlanta, and we caught the shuttle to our hotel just as it was starting to pull out. The flight the next morning to Belize, left roughly on time and arrived a few minutes early. In Belize City We had originally planned to take the bus for all of our accommodations, but in discussing the situation with Brucie, who picked us up, we decided that we would have a lot more options if we rented a car. So we went to the car rental area and rented a Suzuki Jimny from Jabiru car rental.
We rented a cabin from AirBNB which is off the beaten track but in the middle of a forest just south of the Crooked Tree Bird Sanctuary. It’s in the middle of 9 acres of woods and has a small pond with a canoe in the middle. We picked up some groceries and a Digicell SIM card from BTL on the way. The cabin is one big room with a small bathroom and a kitchenette as well as a big porch with 2 hammocks. We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing in the hammocks, caneing, exploring and then went to bed early. In the distance we could hear the monkeys howling.
