Instagram Sunday: Snapshots From My Week on The Island

HOT.  It’s been one hot week in Belize.  And this weekend is the last big hurrah before the island settles down into the slower season…September, October and November.  A slow season punctuated by two HUGE festivals in San Pedro – September celebrations/Independence Day and Halloween.

party like a rockstar

Both A BIG DEAL on Ambergris Caye…and with these lower airfares and the “Southwest effect” – great times to visit.

So heat, the Costa Maya Festival (we will hear more about that from Correspondent Fin tomorrow) and a fishing tournament…this has been the week in San Pedro.

I need to start with this Instagram photo that is not mine since it’s just good stuff.
