Today our Port of Call is Belize City. Unlike the other ports, the city doesn't have a dock that can handle cruise ships so we had to be ferried back and forth to the city. It takes about 15 minutes each way. When we finally arrived at the dock we were met with many, many locals offering us tours. It was overwhelming so we took off walking into town. We did get to what was the "downtown" but really there wasn't much there so we walked back to the dock. We stopped at a restaurant and had a coke and a beer and then We took a city tour with a tour company and we really liked our driver whose name was Mel. We were the only people in his van so we had our own private tour. Mel drove us all over town and told us many facts about Belize City. It was about an hour and a half and we enjoyed it very much. After that we looked the stores over back at the dock for about another half hour and then took the boat back to the ship.
We had a wonderful lunch on board and then we sat on our balcony and read. It is perfect weather. Sunny and warm and not too hot.
I decided to go to a show put on by the Second City group. Bob went on a brisk walk-10 times around the Prominade deck, for a total of 3 1/2 miles!!!
Then at 6:00 we both went for a foot and ankle massage. Both of us really enjoyed that. For dinner, we decided to just go to the regular dining room as it was so late. We had shrimp cocktail, Caesar salad, soup and baked flounder.
After dinner we went to a show put on by the Second City group. All the skits were improv and it was very funny. They really are talented. We enjoyed it a lot. Bob is suffering from his walk and he keeps falling asleep. Will close for now and put him to bed.
